How to find out why a link is not working
-
In URL Open explorer I ran a couple of others and saw they were getting link credit. Our site is not, does anything look wrong in the url below?
Anyway to find out why everyone else on the page of artists is getting credit but we are not?
Thank you,

Thank's Mike, I was just putting in a generic URL.
All the HTML looks correct on the site, but some of the artists are getting a link back and some are not. I will send it over in a PM

Hi Kyle,
I am confused by looking at the URL you provided.
The link is missing an "i" in clients and also cannot end in .comXYZ. It would need to end with something like http://www.XYZclientsSite.com/XYZ. But the displayed URL is also different than the linked to one: www.XYZclientSite.com/XYZ vs www.XYZclientsSiteXYZ.com - like one appears to be a directory and one appears to be the sites root.

Should I disavow these links?
Hi all, I have a site that is a year old, we have been building backlinks organically - probably around 50 or so - then almost overnight we had100s of spammy links. Screenshot here: https://ibb.co/cijiub My questions: Should I disavow these? What happens if I don't disavow these? Can I work out where they came from? If I disavow a few of them, is this a token offering to the Google Gods that will lower my risk of being penalised? Thank you. cijiub

Subdomain links vs root domain links? Are the less valuable?
I am determining the value of links we get. Is a link on a subdomain less valuable vs one on the root domain? How less valuable would you consider a subdomain link? For example blog.site.com vs site.com/blog What other metrics would you take into consideration for the value of a subdomain link?

Mentions without links
Just curious, is there any SEO value if another site/blog mentions my site but doesn't create a hyperlink. My site happens to have a lot of amateur bloggers who write "we used TVFoodMaps for our trip" but don't actually link to my site. I'm wondering if that does anything for my SEO value and should I contact them and ask for the reference to be turned into a link? Thoughts?

Buying links
I have 2 websites to pay monthly to gain links from, number 1 is on the homepage of a directory, it has a PA of 90 and DA of 88.
Link Building | | myloseo
the link will be on the right hand side along with 55 other featured sites.
these links are there throughout the whole site. number 2 is from a website with 20 max sponsored links on a page and will be one of the sub pages on the site with a PA of 74. How valuable if any would these links be? My current pa on the site i wish to send the links to is 26 Can i expect my PA to go up by much? Also i currently have 317 links from 7 root domains on my site will this effect the rank of the paid links? Thanks in advance0 -
Link to those that link to you? Worthwhile?
We have thousands and thousands of sites that link to a domain we are working on, many with low page authority and high domain (bloggers, forum posts, etc). Has anyone experimented with linking to the pages that link to you (not from your site) but from other means in an effort to boost their quality? I'm not sure what method we would use, maybe some relevant blog comments or social votes. But curious if this could be an effective method.
