What are the Low quality link?..Any one explain
-
Hi All,
How you find out that how many links are low quality what are the area of consideration for finding the low quality link.
I have checked the Google webmasters for list of all site links. and finding out that few link have not found or have no PR, links from irrelevant theme.
Please tell me more about the low quality links.
Is disavow link helpful for removing those links from the website also?
Thanks

Hi there
That's a good start, but there are a number of other factors you should check as well. On-page elements for each link should be reviewed, such as whether or not the link is contextual or not, if it appears in a blogroll or footer and what the other outbound links on the page are pointing. If they're going to a whole mix of irrelevant sites, chances are your link is on a link-farm.
The SEOMoz metrics of Page Authority and Domain Authority are really helpful in determining if a link is low quality or not. There's no magic number here and every case is different, but you may want to start with something like: Anything below 15 for domain authority might be a low quality link.
I'm also a big fan of MajesticSEO's trust score and citation score. The higher these scores the better, so again any link under 10 for either score could be considered as low quality.
You can check all of these metrics, along with PR if that's your thing (though I wouldn't pay too much attention to it), with the NetPeak checker. It's free and lets you check URLs on bulk for a wide range of metrics. I'd definitely check that out.
You might also find this SEOMoz blog post helpful.
Hope this helps get you going.

Tons of Links from Low-Quality Image Directories?
Hi Mozzers, I've been receiving a ton of links from low-quality websites that look like image directories or search engines? They are displaying the images that are hosted on our own website. They all seem very similar. Has anyone experienced this and are these harmful? Should they be left alone or disavowed or..? Here are a few examples: http://myimagecollection.net http://pix-collection.com http://theimagess.org/ http://123coolpictures.com etc. Thanks in advance!

How do I find links that link to several competitor sites?
I want to find linking pages that link to several of my competitors. Those are likely to be lists of tools I can also add my website to. My application is a dashboard tool/kanban board. So if I find a page linking both to say kanbannery.com and kanbanflow.com it will be likely to be a collection of links to kanban tools, ad my application can be relatively easy added. Magestic SEO has a "clique hunter" - is there anything similar in MOZ suite of tools?

Linking between properties
I own 3 domains. One is my blog, one is my photography business site, and one is my graphic/web design site. They are all hosted on the same VPS account. I link between each site. Also, since the links are either in the nav, footer or sidebar, all pages from one page link to the homepage of each other. Is this an issue for SEO? Should I not be doing this? Would it be beneficial to use a no follow link instead if I'm to keep them?

Does the ratio of external nofollow links to external "do follow" links matter in terms of SERPs ranking?
My site has an external link nofollow:dofollow ratio of approximately 1:1 That is, there are about as many nofollow external links as "do follow" external links. I have an impression that the ratio of no-follow to "do follow" links is a factor in the way that our website shows up in SERPs. I have the impression from reading a variety of sources, and from looking at Seomoz, that calculate "trust" factors as if they mattered (in SERPs), that seem to value a relatively low nofollow:dofollow ratio. Am I correct about that? Thanks,
