I need help regarding my new website.
-
Hello ,
I actually came here looking for help. I have always worked on old and aged websites, and they all have been huge success, may be because i really got familiar with those kind of websites.Now, i am working on a new long term project. Its a 8 months old website and i dont have a clue where do i start from. Its a technology website and i need to target traffic from britain. I have done whatever i could regarding Onpage SEO, but i simply have no idea where do i start from with link building. Like should i start buying some high PR backlinks or should i go slowly.Can anyone here guide me on that ?

Yahoo and botw are ok links if you have the budget (depending on the category), but getting high authority links from relevant sites in your niche will have more impact, and often cost you less money.

Thanks for your reply Takeshi.
I was actually talking about link directories who are quite reputable, have high PRs and they sell lifetime links (like yahoo dir, botw). Should i consider them, like one or two good quality backlinks every month?

The link building/PR tactics provided by Takeshi Young are excellent as well as Agents of Value content marketing suggestions are both excellent.
I've been in your shoes before and it's certainly different developing something for the start vs. something in progress.
I'll offer a third and different perspective. In evaluating social media, analyze the most recent posts of competitor(s) and follow some of the users that might meet one or more of the "marketing personnas" you are trying to target (I try to create twitter lists with friendly names to organize these users). Begin to monitor their conversations and chime in when you can add value to the discussion. While monitoring, pay attention to the hashtags that these tweets include.
Hashtags are a GREAT WAY to acuire new followers, conversations and potentially....customers.
This is one of many tactics and could similarly be utilized with Facebook, but not quite as easily. Don't want to be creapy.
Hope that is useful. Best of luck.

Hi there,
SEOMoz has a great article about link building for 2013. With all the changes that has been going on with Google, you may want to try and do proper SEO for the website, meaning no keyword stuffing and buying of links, as Takeshi Young had said.
The focus now on link building is providing "evergreen contents". These are valuable contents that people would want to share, repost and retweet. Examples of these are tutorials, know-hows.
Also, it is important to build a reputable and authoritative online presence. Social networks, groups and communities can help you with that.
Hope that helps!

Buying links can get you penalized. Don't do that.
Here is a great list of link building strategies if you don't know where to start:

Large natural products website owns education website. Should relationship be disclosed?
Hello All - I'm working on a content strategy for a large natural products company. In general it's difficult for articles about the natural products industry written written on commercial company sites to show up in the SERP. Most of the results come from large educational sites and blogs with no obvious affiliation (or products for sale). This company also owns an educational site - one that would be much easier to get content on the first page of the SERP for. The 2 sites are hosted on the same server. My question is - does this website relationship look fishy? Is it a grey area to create content for the educational site - content where the purpose is #1 education, but #2 - to promote products from the main site and send traffic to the main site. I do think it's important to note that the main company site does not actual sell any products there (products are sold on Amazon and on shelves in stores). I appreciate your thoughts!

Does having our products on Amazon or EBay help with our SEO ranking?
We have an ecommerce web site, which ranks ok , but we are trying to build up our SEO scores. We're looking at links and were wondering if having our products listed on either Amazon or Ebay (or both) will actually help with ranking of our site? We sometimes have products listed on ebay with a reference to the higher price that the item is selling for on our main site. Thank you.

What to do with a new good looking site?
With a new site comes new challenges. We have recently finished one of our clients websites in the Retirement (financial) field. www.retirementireland.ie In my opinion the site is looking good, fast loading(very little js, optimized images) and good SEO structuring. As being a new site i feel like the decisions taken now are crucial. If SEO is done properly could save a lot of time. If not would take us a while until we get 1-5 positions for retirement, retirement options, retirement planning, retirement ireland. Any thoughts on existing design / structure / content. Any extra suggestions are welcome.
