Link pipeline software
-
Has anyone used the link building software - www.linkpipeline.com ? Any feedback would be much appreciated

As someone else here says, this can do more harm than good.
Indexing links is sometimes necessary but there are other methods. This software builds links to your links. May be more than you generally need and leaves a foot print.

Keri,
OMG!! That advice is awful. I feel bad for the new people here and apologize for the bluntness.
Some of the best links are from non profits, EDUs and other large sites that dont necessarily index well.
Non profits and EDUs typically dont pay much attention to SEO but their links are authoratitive. Non profits typically dont have site maps and each department is their own fiefdom. Usually no cross linking between them and each department usually has their own surface links (primary/navigational links).
Additionally, Google is extremely good about indexing news sites as soon as they publish and checking for changes for a day or two but generally wont check again.

Thank you for your feedback!

I personally prefer to have links to my site on pages that Google already knows about, not pages where I need to pay someone to create a ton of automated links so those links get noticed.
There are forums that may speak highly of this software, but SEOmoz isn't going to be one of those forums, it's just not in our philosophy. For more information on the viewpoint of many of the people around here, check out the beginner's guide to SEO and the chapter on building links at http://www.seomoz.org/beginners-guide-to-seo/growing-popularity-and-links

Automated link building? I think you'll find the majority here would advise against any such software, that kind of thing can do more harm than good.

Best Software To Alert On Incoming Links?

What is a natural link?
Hi everyone, I'm trying to better understand what is meant by a natural link and would appreciate any assistance. Doing some competitor link analysis I've noticed a web developer who has created a directory for all its customers. This is not a directory in the traditional sense of being of use to an end user, but to my untrained eyes, it looks like an internal directory used solely for the purpose of link building. For all I know this might be perfectly good practice in the industry, but as a beginner, I'm attempting to get an understanding of things. My question is, what precisely is meant by a natural link? If the above scenario is all ok, whereby there are businesses in the same field of work, but ultimately could be in any given location, on a directory, are they natural links? Do these kind of directories that don't service an end user, exist if the common feature between them is say location only, or an seo agency only? Appreciate I could be completely out of kilter on this, but it seems the benefit on SERPs is pretty significant for something that seems pretty "unnatural" to me? Any guidance would be appreciated...tom

Internal linking anchor text with automated ASP.NET link building
Hi Everyone I really need some help here, the problem I have must be one that many have. I have a simple e-commerce style website so 1 product page can in fact get 40-50 internal links to it. These links come from a mixture of: 1. The parent category pages that the product sits on (Rugged PDA) and in turn the 10 filter pages of this category page (Rugged PDA, ordered by battery size). 2. Alternative product list on other product pages, So many products link to each other as alternatives. From Google analytics we can see that visitors like to browse product to product seeing 5 alternatives on each page with titles like "Smaller", "more rugged" etc. 3. Manufactuer pages, so we have a link to each product from each manufacturer home page where we talk lots about each manufacture we resell. We also have links from images used in the website. So its a nice usable website but we're finding that Google is still telling us in Webmaster tools that it thinks some links are dubious and we're trying to find out why. We only now have 190 external links to the website, most are internal and from the website or our blog on a subdomain. The problem we think is that we generate the category and products pages all dynamically so the anchor text is looking the same. Will this potentially create issues for us? Dave
