      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.

            How you do guest posting on behalf of your clients? What do you use in the author bio - your name, client's name or a fake name?

            I would like to hear from SEO agencies or link building teams - how you manage guest posting on behalf of your clients? 1. What is your outreach process - Do you pitch as a marketing manager or as a subject expert? 2. What do you mention in your author bio? Your name and your bio as outreach manager/ marketing manager? Your client's name and client's bio? A fake name - as a subject expertise? 3. Which email ID and contact details you use? - Your work ID/ client's ID/ Fake Gmail ID? I work for an SEO agency and I am interested in content and SEO related blog posts. But, I have many clients in the home improvement, real estate, food, fashion and other industries. I don't feel right to use my name when posting a guest blog on their behalf. What you guys prefer? Any thoughts?

            Do links on Reference.com and Ask.com count as backlinks?

            Hi there Just had a quick question about links on Reference.com or Ask.com. I have been looking at my competitors link profiles to get ideas of who and where I should/could be linking from. One of my main competitors seems to have links on Reference.com and Ask.com which are being listed in there profile. Reference.com are dofollow. Our site is also appearing on these sites, but the links are being listed under our profile. We have been up and running for more that 3 years now. The obviously have high DR and I think must be a contributing factor to their rank, having looked at other links in their profile. It seems strange because I thought these sites are effectively search engines and therefore wouldn't count towards your backlink profile? Can anyone explain? Would be most grateful if someone can. Many thanks in advance. Clojo

            What tool can be used to provide a list of links on a website that points to other websites?

            For example: On a website there are items in the news listing that point to articles about a company that appear on online news sites; items that point to collateral hosted by vendors we use, etc. What tool can be used to provide a list of these links?

            Is there a difference between .com backlinks and .co.uk?

            (We are a UK based business) I am currently looking for sites for guest posting opportunities and I am not sure whether I should prioritize .co.uk sites or go for .com sites. Does it matter? Is more weight given to .co.uk sites if you are based in the UK?

            Should I Use a Backlink Plugin

            One of my clients recently asked me if he should use a Wordpress plugin to create backlinks to his website. He mentioned WP-Syndicator as an example. I just redesigned his website and I'd like to ensure that he gets a bit more traffic than he was before. Should I suggest that he purchase/use a Wordpress backlink plugin? If so does anyone know which is the best one? Not sure if it's necessary, but here is the website I'm referring to http://intouchhome.com
