How many links can i do in a day
-
Hi, I built a niche site yesterday, the domain was 1 week old. What is the safest way to do link building? I.e How many links should i do in order to be in safe? So far, i've concentrated on building my social profile. Like getting as many retweets as possible. Slowly getting facebook likes and added few youtube videos with my link in it. Now i am on to link building. I will only do legit link building methods. Currently i am gonna get 2 press releases. But can you tell me no. of links i must get in a day.
PS: The keyword i am competing is highly competitive.

If the links are varied and built legitimately, they will look natural and so you will be OK.
I'm not sure you can put a number on what is OK or not though

Hi,
In my opinion is not the number of links that is important but the type of links.
You an build 10k a day if those links are good and without a pattern. If you do go and "help" those links to be build then you should take a few things in consideration:
-
sources and type of links should be very diffrent
-
the amount of links should be un-balanced as number per day (one day 5, one day 1, one day 90 and so on)
-
the anchor text is very important - it needs to vary a lot (I would say the anchor text should be brand, brand + keyword, long tail keyword, anchor texts like "more", "here" etc and some keyword basd links but in a small ratio overall)
-
also build no follow links
-
links that target inner pages should be correlated with fresh content on those inner pages. links to new inner pages should "die out" slowly over time (focus on a higher number of links in thebegining and cut the number down in time)
-
links should not have a comercial intent overall if possibile. or if they do - no follow those.
-
press release type of links should be overall, as number, a very tiny ratio of the overal link you build.
-
stay away for links that are "hosted" on sites that also host links for sites that are clearly focus on link building (that have a bad link profile) as you will be flagged only by doing that.
Just some short opinion overall - hope it helps and hope you can extract some advice from the above list.

Cross links between sites
hi, We have several ecommerce sites and we cross linked 3 of them by mistake. We realize that the sites were linked through WMT, We have shut down 2 of the sites about 2 months ago, but WMT still shows the links coming from those 2 sites. how do we make sure that google will see the sites are shut down. Is there a better of way resolving this issue. We are no longer using those sites, so do not need them to be active. whats the best solution to show google that the links are no longer there. Crawler shows that it was able to crawl the site 45 days after it is shut down. thanks nick

If I get a natural link for a great site and I have my keyword with anchor text in this link, how should I proceed?
If I get a natural link for a great site and I have my keyword with anchor text in this link, how should I proceed? I need to contact the site and ask to remove the link or request the removal of the anchor text and leave only the site URL? Or yet do not I need to worry about this issue?

Site Navigation leads to "Too Many On-Page Links" warning
I run an ecommerce site with close to 2000 products. Nearly every page in the catalog has a too many on-page links error because of the navigation sidebar, which has several flyout layers of nested links. What can/should I do about this? Will it affect my rankings at all? Thanks

Too many 301s?
Hi there, If there is a website that has accidently generated say 1,000 pages of duplicate content, would the seo be hurt if all those pages were re-directed to the origional source of the content? There are no plans to re-write the 1,000 duplicate pages, they are already cached and indexed by Google. I thought about canonical tags but as they have some traffic and a little seo value i thought 301 re-direct would be more appropiate to the relevant pages? I am also right in thinking you would be able to remove the 301 in the .htaccess file once the index has updated? Also once removed the 301 - i could use those urls later from scratch if i wanted? Any info much appreciated.

How to measure number of links out from a page
Following on from earlier Q, what do you all use to count links out from a page. I believe there is a bing tool which does this, though rather than a list of sites a simple number would be ideal?

How is link juice passed to links that appear more than once on a given page?
For the sake of simplicity, let's say Page X has 100 links on it, and it has 100 points of link juice. Each page being linked to would essentially get 1 point of link juice. Right? Now let's say Page X links to Page Y 3 times and Page Z 5 times, and every other link only once. Does this mean that Page Y would get 3 "link juice points" and Page Z would get 5? Note: I know that the situation is much more complex than this, such as the devaluation of footer links, etc, etc, etc. However, I am interested to hear peoples take on the above scenario, assuming all else is equal.
