Does PRWeb.com Still Work?
-
Is PRWeb.com still a viable solution for SEO?
-
It's a limited solution. It can get visibility fast and possibly drive traffic. It can also (unintentionally) interfere with your site - for example, a product news release could do well and the product page on your site could rank lower. So it also depends what the CTA is and what you want to rank best.
Even with good content, you need a way to get it out there to get visibility which is what a service like this can do. Then again, it can also do it for not really great content.

Paying for press releases are somewhat not a viable option anymore. Many believe that using that budget to create an awesome content would be a better choice.
As well believe, good contents will lead to backlinks. The problem with PR sites is that they mass send these to news sites, and unless your content in your PR is good, it won't be picked up and you would have paid $100-$200 for just 1-2 links.

A lot of blogs use wordpress or blogspot, are these blogs still useful for SEO in terms of linkbuilding, or should they be avoided?
I am very new to linkbuilding and SEO as a whole, so please forgive my ignorance. Reaching out to bloggers is a common tactic, but I've found a lot of people tend to blog with the assistance of wordpress or blogspot. I was wondering whether these blogs are still useful for SEO or if it is best to avoid them? Thanks in advance, Lewis

Beyond Guest Blogging, What Else Works Now?
Given the importance of editorial links & co-citation, beyond guest blogging what other high-value link-building tactics should I be looking at to boost organic search placings? Specifically, in Apr 2013 is there still mileage in directories (such as these on the SEOMoz list) or on this GetListed list; or in placing content on social sites such as Squidoo?

Is there a tool in SEOMOZ that will make sure backlinks are still active and searchable every month?
I'm looking for a way to track backlinks that are made and make sure that they don't disappear. Is there a way in SEO Moz to have it check the backlinks that it has identified every month to make sure they're still there, or do you have to do it manually by download the list every month and comparing them?
