_Eternal dilemma of an SEO professional. Since you are there to build links, you have to think about building links and this is exactly where the problem creeps in. Rather take a different approach here. Think like a general user. Would you love to see your website listed in that directory? Do you believe that that the directory in question would be able to drive some traffic to your website? If the answer is yes, go ahead mate. Get your website listed there. Google or no Google, your website is going to get benefited at the end. _

When I said " good directories " I meant http://www.seomoz.org/directories/ Do you think these directories will cause Penguin signal to be triggered ? As of my 2nd advice, do it on the right pace. Few factors need to be determine how much to do per x time. Obviously I will agree that directories submission you can find on commercial seo tools will trigger Penguins signals and one should avoid them. Are we good?
-
Do you have an explict answer to those questions that will avoid a Penguin problem?

Guys, why to be negative? Today is December 25th
Mr. Singh didn't say what "Directory submission" he meant. There are very good directories that we have to use, anybody disagree?
Regards the other part of "day limit" for Directory submission, the pace is all based on two factors:
- how many links and their quality you have now?
- can you keep the same pace overtime month in, month out?
-
I more or less agree with EGOL. Directory Submissions are a thing of the past and are likely to get you in trouble nowadays. Getting backlinks is becoming harder and harder everyday. You need to diversify more and make sure that all those links to you look as natural as possible. It's not a bad thing to do linking yourself to get that initial push but the best possible linking strategy is a naturally occurring one. Make sure you use all relevant social avenues open to you... Facebook pages, G+, LinkedIn, Pinterest, Instagram, StumbleUpon, and so on as long as it make sense for your site to be there and you keep up with posting. Hopefully those will generate natural links back to your site as people learn who you are and grow to like your site.

Thank you sir for valuable suggestion, So what link building strategies shall i apply to get rank my keywords in Google 1st page.
-
I think that they can be harmful to your site - especially if you use keyword anchor text.
If these are the only types of links that you have, I think that your site will be hit by Penguin.
-
I dint get you sir.
-
If you do one or two per day... it will be enough to get you in trouble by the end of next year.

Inner pages of a directory site wont index
I have a business directory site thats been around a long time but has always been split into two parts, a subdomain and the main domain. The subdomain has been used for listings for years but just recently Ive opened up the main domain and started adding listings there. The problem is that none of the listing pages seem to be betting indexed in Google. The main domain is indexed as is the category page and all its pages below that eg /category/travel but the actual business listing pages below that will not index. I can however get them to index if I request Google to crawl them in search console. A few other things: I have nothing blocked in the robots.txt file The site has a DA over 50 and a decent amount of backlinks There is a sitemap setup also any ideas?

Increase in pages crawled per day
What does it mean when GWT abruptly jump from 15k to 30k pages crawled per day? I am used to see spikes, like 10k average and a couple of time per month 50k pages crawled. But in this case 10 days ago moved from 15k to 30k per day and it's staying there. I know it's a good sign, the crawler is crawling more pages per day, so it's picking up changes more often, but I have no idea of why is doing it, what good signals usually drive google crawler to choose to increase the number of pages crawled per day? Anyone knows?

Too many links in header menu
I'm working on a few clients who are starting to get big header menus. Their site now easily exceeds the 100 links per page recommendation. Normally I would recommend them to cut down on the links, bit in this case these sites have menus that makes navigation easier. I honestly think these menus adds value for the users. The dilemma is that I think the menus provide value from an UX standpoint, but I'm not sure from the SEO standpoint. Any recommendations to this dilemma? Some examples: http://moodsofnorway.com/no/ http://www.gmax.no/ http://www.flust.no/

Is it a bad that my site has the same title and description for directory listings?
I manually listed my site in a few hundred free directories, two paid directores (Joe ant $40, and dirmania $12), and 50 directories that require a reciprocal link ( I paid for a cheap service that gets around having to do the reciprocal). I made the big mistake of having the title and the description for these as the same or very close to the same...is this a huge problem? Should I have my site removed from the free directories or just let it go? I've since stopped focusing on all the directories, and considering saving up to get in Yahoo directory. Working now on getting legit and relevant links from .edu sites.

Too many on page links
Hello I have about 800 warnings with this. Example of one url with this problem is: http://www.theprinterdepo.com/clearance?dir=asc&order=price I was checking and I think all links are important. But I suppose that if I put a nofollow on the links on the left which are only for navigation purposes I can get rid of these warnings. Any other idea?

Too Many On-Page Links
Hello. My Seomoz report this week tells me that I have about 500 pages with Too Many On-Page Links One of the examples is this one: https://www.theprinterdepo.com/hp-9000mfp-refurbished-printer (104 links) If you check, all our products have a RELATED products section and in some of them the related products can be UP to 40 Products. I wonder how can I solve this. I thought that putting nofollow on the links of the related products might fix all of these warnings? Putting NOFOLLOW does not affect SEO?

Too many links on your blog?
In all of my campaigns, I have a lot of URLs with too many links on the page (defined loosely as around or over 100 links per page); these links are virtually all found on blog pages. The link count shoots up quickly when you start using things like tag clouds, showing all the tags/categories a post is in, in addition to all the cross linking thats typical of blog posts. My question is: Does this matter? Do you work to get blog pages down under that 100 link limit, or just assume most blogs are like this and move along? If you think it does matter, what strategies have you used to cut down the number of links while still keeping popular elements like tag clouds?
