Anyone familiar with the effects of cybo.com or kafeicha.com?
-
I have new a client with a couple dozen normal inbound links along with a 150 links between these two domains. What do you think, disavow time?
These links are not showing in OSE, but are listed by Webmaster Tools.
The cybo.com links are in sets, seems to language?, ten or so links each from
etc

Thanks Marcus, the other one is nofollow as well. I'll leave 'em be but will ask the client if they're aware of any other SEO activity being done in the last couple years.
Cheers,
Peter

Hey Peter
Cybo seems to be some kind of business directory and it is still indexed so is probably not one of the purely for SEO directories out there (just mostly for SEO I suspect). They seem to have a version for various countries which may be why they are generating a bunch of links.
The links themselves seem to be nofollow with the URL as the anchor so on the manipulation front this is not really looking like a problem.
As it goes, if not part of a larger problem, I would not give this a second thought.
Hope that helps
Marcus

Has anyone heard or worked with penwarriors.co
I had someone from penwarriors.co approach me about putting some content on my site. The content is good. It's unique. It's very relevant and any links out are reasonable. But when I started to look into it, they seem to be churning out a hell of a lot of content for the companies they're doing outreach for and the companies themselves don't seem to be very active on social. I can't find the person they are attributing a guest blog to and I can't find the person that I've been communicating with on linkedin etc. Something doesn't feel right. Any ideas? Simon

Anyone heard of Linklicious?
Interested to know if anyone has heard of Linklicious? They apparently get your links noticed by Google. Not sure if it's genuine or what to think about the idea. Personally sounds a bit dodgy to me, any thoughts?

How come www.ifundinternational.com beat us despite that most links seems VERY shady?
How can ifundinternational.com with TONS of spammy links rank 70 keywords in TOP20 in the competitive hard money lending industry? They seem to go AGAINS ALL WHITE HAT SEO and all rules by Panda, Penguing and Hummingbird. Just frustrating that they get away with it. What to do about it?

Received a random email asking if we wanted to trade links. The way they word things leads me to wonder if they're a link farm from overseas. Any feedback?0 -

Would anyone reccomend hiring an outside company for social bookmarking?
I hired http://www.manualsocialbookmarking.com/ to take care of social bookmarking for one of my clients. I am finally starting to see the links created from this with my keyword as the anchor text in SEO Moz. I know that they are not "great" links, but my keyword is doing very well (fluctuating between #1 and #2 on Google). I don't feel like hiring this company hurt my SEO, but I am scared to do i for any of my other clients (especially because of the penguin update). Does anyone have any thoughts? Is it work the risk to hire them again and get some links for my other clients?

Do subdomains (eg .blogspot.com) carry the same link juice as a .com or .co.uk?
Hi guys. Just wondered what people's thoughts were on the value of a link from a subdomain vs a .com or .co.uk - I have several clients operating within the UK crafts sector, and there are a huge number of blogspot blogs with decent PR etc. Given that anyone can start one of these for free (and therefore theoretically get themselves hundreds of bogus links), I wonder whether they carry the same value as an independent site. I'll look forward to hearing everyone's thoughts 🙂
