Links from Nextag/PriceGrabber
-
I have a eCommerce store over BigCommerce platform. It is possible to sell via Shopping Comparison Sites like:
Nextag, PriceGrabber, Bizrate, Shopping.com,
If I decide to advertise my products over those sites, will it be consider a trust link for Google?
Our store is new and we don't have links referring to us, I need solutions. Also, there is a yellow pages site, http://www.yellowpages.ca/ that ask for monthly fees to advertise on there web site, advertising will be business name, addressee, phone number and web site, will it be a positive link for Google or just a paid link?
This is our store:
Thank you for your help and support,

the higher the DA number the better, right?

Personally I would look first at the DA since this should provide insight into the domains strength on the web. I won't get into the metrics of how it is calculated since I would just be repeating the information that can already be found here -> http://www.seomoz.org/learn-seo/link-topics
Aim for high quality links on related sites and create link worthy content whenever possible and you shall see results!
Good luck

Just looking at the sites, it doesn't seem that these are high-value signals to Google (the Yellow Pages ads are triggered from Javascript and not likely crawled).
But, more importantly, this is less an SEO question than an overall marketing question. I wouldn't ask whether these are valuable to improve your ranking. It's really more a matter of whether they'll improve your business. If your customers use these sites to find information about your product, look at the cost of being there relative to the return it will generate to determine their value. They may not be good for SEO. But they may extend your brand's reach and need to be weighed against whether they're any good for your overall business.

New to SEO and using SEOmoz tools like the toolbar, can the number be useful in the toolbar for finding trust links. For example, the Root Domain number and the Page number what should I look for higher PA or DA or both?
Thank youy

While I'm not going to advocate the buying of links, I will say that in my opinion paying for a banner or text advertisement on high profile trusted and relevant site will not hurt your SEO goal at all. Where you have to be careful is the low quality 'spammy directories' that are dime a dozen out there.
For me it's pretty clear that you're not just buying a link, but advertising on a relevant business directory.

Impact on backlinking with https://www.domain or https://domain
Hi, this questions have bugging me for a long time now; we check our website how is indexed on Google and we see that we have most of the backlinks for URL https://www.speedhub.eu , but 15% are linked to https://speedhub.eu , in the past we had our website for http requests redirected via 301 htaccess to https://speedhub.eu without giving it importance, now we have it with www included. Bottom line questions: Is it important if your links are with www or without www, do you lose "link juice" by splitting your backlinks via links with www or without www ? Does Google make a difference for domain positioning via this criteria ? Best regards,

Does This Link Have Value?
Hi Mozzers, A client paid to publish a white paper, thinking that the link to the web site is beneficial. The link does redirect back to the web site, but is in a format that I've never seen: http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001YdyyLrzOQJxM87SJZkJYVbQKSdCmFpwqg1fuX3yqVqpGboUjdSaHv9IdW5HsQpgmvwOrg5N4T3DNHYV8e1UVe_YCua_XQCFykoSJvu1HzDyb-3x-aFcPU-ER-vwWxq4- Does this link have any value?

Link from or 301 Domains?
I have 3 domains that are in the same niche as my main site and not connected in any way. Now my question is should I just link to my main site from each of them on a page that is relevant to my main Keywords or should I 301 them to the site? I am thinking that building a link to my main site would have more effect than 301's. Thanks in advance!

Finding links online that already exist as link juice based on search results
I'm curious about this, I can't find anything on the net that talks about it. I wrote an article about it on squidoo and have had no responses so I am thinking this is very rare subject. The question is I have done some backlink research with my competitors with linkdetective.com and found many links (even follow ones) related to sites that provide search results. Here are a link about what I am talking about as an example, I have found many more besides this one. http://search.lphant.com/es/webResults.html?q=free%20scrabble%20dictionary&hl=en&page=1&src=hmp_es&ref=1 My site appears in those results. When looking at the source there is no "nofollow". I found this page because linkdetective.com had this link listed pointing to my competitor. Are these valid backlinks? What I have been doing is adding these links to http://www.google.com/addurl so that Google knows about them. Is there something I am missing or are these valid?

How many days/hours a month should I dedicate to link building ?
I realise that the more time you dedicate to link building the better, but what would you say is the ideal amount of time that I should spend link building to see a significant improvement in rankings? The keywords I'm trying to target are medium to difficult. So far, I've been spending one day link building but since I'm making all link submissions manually, I haven't seen great results, even though I've been link building for a couple of months. How many days do you spend link building? Thank you in advance for your help! 🙂
