Is www.indexkings.com safe to use?
-
Does anyone know if www.indexkings.com is a safe site to use to index a url in the eyes of Google?
-
IndexKings is a "safe" site to use. What it does is ping your URL to sites like Alexa, WSRising.com amongst others, which then pings Google.
It does generate a number of no-value backlinks and there's no documented harm (as far as i'm aware) by using these services sporadically.
What you should be aware of is users that submit 2nd or 3rd tier backlinks in an attempt to get them indexed via these services. If you've got a legitimate website that you want indexed, the best way to do that would be via www.google.com/addurl.html
Save yourself the hassle and risk

When you are on this website, one of the links clicks to http://www.monsterbacklinks.com/ where you have this company advertising 1200 backlinks for $157. This is definitely stuff i would stay miles away from. (I can see Rand shaking his head in disappointment at this company and getting really really mad :):)
Here is the simple answer. Why would you want to put your site or your client's site in jeopardy by engaging this company for link building. If you do get penalized , it will take a lot of hard work and effort to get your rankings back. The bottomline is "nothing comes easy". Top rankings for competitive keywords require a lot of hard work and effort for long lasting results.

Sending Domain Authority from Root www domain to *
Hello all Some advice please. Im working with a friend who has a website (obviously). Its based on wordpress and is accessible by the link http://exampledomain.com. The problem is he has some good links out there which are pointing at http://www.exampledomain.com. As yet Im uncertain how he has setup his DNS, he maybe is doing a forward which would leave the DA back with the www subdomain. What is his best practice to inherit those links into his actual domain? Thanks

Which directories to use?
I've recently has a conversation with a colleague regarding which directories to use when link building. In her opinion we should use only the ones that are relevant and nothing else. For example if you're working on a travel website, you should only submit either to travel directories or local directories (based on the business location). In my opinion yes we should submit to these directories but then you'll reach a limit and then you need to submit to general directories that have the "travel" category, even if the business is in NY and the directory is in India, as long as it is a good directory and has the relevant category. What is your opinion about this?

Why are reciprocal links still being used widely?
Looking at my competitors backlink profiles they all seem to have lots or reciprocal links and banner exchanges etc... I thought that only one way links really had any value. The reciprocal links they do have appear to be pretty spammy but the sites are still ranking well? Should I be adopting reciprocal links and banner exchanges. I know these strategies worked years ago but surely not in 2012?

Brandpoint.com
We were recently made aware of brandpoint.com. They produce content and guarantee the content will be listed on a minimum of 600 websites that they have agreements with. This includes the LA times and others. Their agreements state that the content will be a maximum of 2 clicks from the homepage and will live for 1-2 years before getting archived. Does anyone know anything about this company and/or the overall strategy of achieving links on these highly trafficked/valued sites through articles? Will these links help us or is this similiar to sending out a press release on prweb where you get picked up by benzinga and other sites automatically and the value for the links isn't really there? Any insight you can provide about this company and or strategy would be most appreciated.
