When do my links show up?
-
For the last two weeks I have been working on linkbuilding. I have downloaded competitors link reports and started contacting or submitting links. In the last two weeks I have gotten about 50-60 or so. In the newest report it shows I went up four c-blocks. Why is that? It is kind of discouraging.

I'm nerdy so I download a CSV after every update & keep track of them in a big ol' spreadsheet

I don't use any other tools currently. Knowing it can take awhile makes me feel a little better. Is there a feature that lets you know what is new since the last scan?

Hi Niners
Are you referring to links in your OSE report?
Unfortunately the way in which Mozscape crawls the web means that not all web pages are added into the database.
The other reason is that your links are too new. It normally takes a good 4-6 weeks for SEOmoz to find the latest links to your website - although they are getting quicker at finding new links.
Have you access to any other link analysis packages such as MajesticSEO or ahrefs? It's better to have access to as many link reporting tools as possible to make sure all your links are being reported.
If you know the pages you have obtained links from are indexed by Google then that is a good indicator they have been discovered.

How to link build?
Hello all. I've been having intense conversations with an experienced SEO, who has told me that the only way to get consistent links to your website, and to build you business through the web is through blogger outreach, and then paying the bloggers to put your appropriate content on their high Page Ranking website. To me, this may well be right. But it sounds dull as anything. Any thoughts? William

No Follow and reciprocal links
I just wondered by adding no follow to a reciprocal link (one link only not the link on both sites) does it become a one way link? I have some reciprocal link partners who are more interested in traffic from my site than link juice which is irrelevent to them. Am I better adding no follow to those links at my end?

How many nofollow links should we build to have a natural link profile
Hi guys, As with many link builders we have been building lots of dofollow links for our site, so many that mainly our incoming links are dofollow. Some pages have 99.5% dofollow external links which I know is not very natural. In your experience in terms of percentage how much should you have in terms of nofollow external links in your link profile. I noticed SEOMoz has about 12-13% nofollow external links, shall I go with this figure? Thanks guys. David

How to improve (ASAP) the linking root domain, the followed linking root domains and the linking C-Blocks? Linkbuilding (or whatever) techniques.
I have a small site (.com) like any website in my sector. 30-90 pages. I have no crawls errors. Everythings is fine, just I need to improve my linking root domain, the followed linking root domain and the linking C-Blocks. Example: my competitors have 300 (one of them have 1300) of total links. I have 30. Anyone know some good strategies? techniques? tips? I just dont want to be in a farm directory, I want free links. I'm already running two strategies but it works so slowly. I want something faster at this moment. Also, any recommendation will be thankful.
