Is anyone using Pinterest for link building?
-
They have dofollow links and I have read somewhere that every repin will be counted as a new link. Is this true?
-
i just pm'ed you let me know if i can help. The key to pinterest is group boards
-
You might be right, I'm just asking as I seem to be getting so much conflicting information about this. But it does bring a lot of traffic, so I'm definitely going to work on a more organised way of using Pinterest
Thanks for taking the time to reply!

I actually work with a client in the wedding space as well and they have thousands and thousands of shares but i wouldnt say it has the value of a link

I've heard quite a few people saying that their PR has gone up after they started using Pinterest as part of marketing/link building. However, I can't check if what they're saying is true.
I watched the video that Matthew suggested and he claims that he has 800 links coming from Pinterest. I'm sure that must count more than just a social share?
-
I dont think it counts as a link but im sure it has the same value as a social share. Google knows what pinterest is and knows how to treat it.

Thanks Matthew!
Will definitely have a look at it -

Hi I have been doing some research today to help a client who has lots of links to their site but they are mainly of low or no value. The links were created by another SEO agency so we are not sure in all cases how the links came about or who to contact to get rid of them. I have come across link detox http://goo.gl/o2fKl.

Local Link Building help!
Hi All, Looking for some help with where to begin link building for local small businesses. If the website is leading to a lawyer, doctor, or any type of professional service, I'm at a loss on where to start. I've tried looking into local directories, and I also know that if one of the clients has a reason for being linked in an online news article, those links should be pursued. Additionally, I've gone and helped to claim all local listings, and submitted to DMOZ and a few other directories. So if the website is just leading to a business that isn't running any events or specials worth writing about, what is the best way to acquire links? Thank you! Tyler

When is link building an SEO priority? (vs. something else)
I'm considering hiring an SEO vendor for link building, and assessing whether or not my website really needs link building, vs. another SEO priority (for instance, I KNOW there's an opportunity for local SEO). What factors should I look at to determine if link building is a high priority? Should I just compare the number links my site has with competitors, using a tool like Open Site Explorer?

Back Link: Is LinkedIn keywords in profile good Link building strategy?
I distribute industrial products B2B with e commerce. I have a personal profile on LinkedIn. I listed the products I sell and I could have all my partners and associates list my web site on their profiles. Do search engines review LinkedIn personal profiles or company profiles and is it a good marketing strategy to have my web site, keywords, and my two largest selling products on LinkedIn?

Link building strategy - black hat or white hat?
I have a competitor who always ranks very on alot keywords relevant to our business and using Open Site Explorer I note they have a tremendous amount of links. I also noticed that it appears their web company has gone out and set up numerous websites with relevant content, and then have linked back to the competitors main site. Is this kosher? I ask because before I settled on my current domain name, I purchased several keyword rich domain names; should I be thinking of setting up websites with relevant (and original) content and link back to my main site?
