Open Site Explorer Question
-
Ok, so Open Site Explorer question:
Say you enter a link and filter as follows - Followed + 301, only external, this page, ungroup.
Now lets say 50 links appear from the same domain, when you visit the domain one of those Go Daddy type parked domain pages appear with lots of adsense as they usually do.
Link back... No where to be seen.
What's the score here? Is this domain showing up because OSE is yet to update for this domain?
-
Nice, thanks very much for the update.
-
That's a good guess. OSE is up to a few weeks behind on links. If you tried this query yesterday, try again today to see if it still happens, since we just released an index yesterday. You might check web.archive.org to see what it looked like a few months ago, or even Bing's cache to see if it was a fairly recent change (Bing tends to update more slowly than Google).

Backlinks Question
Hi all, i own a small business in an extremely competitive marketplace. I have also educated myself greatly about seo over the past 3 years and currently do my own. The one thing I cannot figure out, for the life of me, is how my two competitors keep beating me in rankings without backlinks. I mean, I have about 3K solid backlinks, mostly do follow, from top notch publications, sites, citations ect. In ahref, it shows that he has almost no backlinks. I cannot crack th third spot, but they dominate with zero backlinks, and the domains are only a bit older than mine. Thoughts on this?

Embedding an image from another site
I have developed some micro-sites for a client. The micro-sites are on their own root domain and are only associated, through links, with the client's main site. The client just added an infographic to their site and I want to embed it on the micro-sites. If I am going to embed the image on all the micro-sites that were developed do I need to use a rel canonical tag so it is not seen as duplicate content?

Got a link building question here
I've been doing a lot of back link analysis on my competitors and noticed that a lot of links are coming from wordpress.com, blog.com, blogspot.com, etc blogs. These are free blogs in the format of http://www.username.blogplatform.com. These individual blogs seem to have product reviews and mentions for many different products (we are an e-commerce website). I would like to know if anyone has done any outreach to the owners of the third party blogs. This looks very different from guest blogging and I want to know if there is a way to reach out to these blog owners in order for them to write something about our products. Please let me know if anyone had any success with this, Thank you

Photography Site ranking!
Hi I am working on a photography site: www.daffodilwaves.co.uk now there isn't many pages nor is the that much text. However you will see that they have a blog (poorly designed one which we are addressing) Now blog posts I feel can be really good as there is generally alot of naturally written text which I don't feel I need to influence. Also generally people will comment so I also believe that is good for rankings too. However I find that the blog ranks higher than the actual website and I dont want that to occur the website is the one that generates the bookings. So can you give me some ideas to transfer the ranking from the blog to the website? I was thinking that within the article I could simply link back to the homepage - would you think that is a good idea? If so would you suggest I use particular anchor text? such as "Wedding Photographer" or "Comtemporary wedding Photographer" Thanks

Social Media Site that DoFollow
Hi everyone, I love this community and have a question: I recently read the textbook Art of SEO which was written by some of the creators of this community. In that book, there is a chapter on link building. Within that chapter, they discuss social media sites and how to leverage them. In that section, they refer to this article: http://www.searchenginepeople.com/blog/22-dofollow-social-media-sites-offering-profile-links.html. This article gives 22 social media sites that it says if you simply sign up, make a profile, and have your profile point to your web site, there will be a benefit because these sites profile sections DoFollow links. My question is: Is there a tool that can tell me whether or not these 22 sites still DoFollow links? Or at least if there profile section does pass link juice? Any advise is greatly appreciated. Sincerely, Jeffrey Ferraro
