White hat link technique to banned domain
-
The question is:
I have branddomain A (manually penalization by google, one year ago and after 4 consideration requests and more than 3/4 of links removed, stills banned) authority 42
And and new branddomain B (with fresh content created after penalization in the case of no recovery as it happen) authority 26
There are no links from A to B, both are now with same traffic but i want people that find me on domain A (partial penalized) to come to my new web brand. Both domains have same name, different extensión.
So the question:
Can i link with photo domain A to domain B, if i place nofollow and no ancor text on those linked photos.
I want to have my traffic unified and i dont want to go against google guidelines

You cannot get a site out of a penalty from redirecting the banned or penalized site to a new domain. If you're only looking to link images to the unpenalized site you're probably fine if you nofollow them since image links don't push rank. Keep the alt tag off of them so you're not suggesting any semantics. To be really safe if done properly you could javascript them.

I'm wondering if doing a permanent redirect from your old domain to your new would be the thing to do? Hopefully someone else can jump in here and add their expertise as I've never tried this. I do not think the penalty would transfer to the new domain but neither would all the link juice from the old domain, which really isn't doing anything currently since you are being penalized.
I have a client whose old SEO company ended up getting them penalized. We have not filed a reconsideration request since we are only 48% of the way going through the spammy backlinks and asking for them to be removed. Most webmasters aren't responding but some are and I have noticed our rankings increase considerably even though no reconsideration request has been filed. Have you tried going through ask asking for all the spammy links to be removed? If not then that may be why they have not removed the penalty.

Site is propdental.com to propdental.es (brand url)
Different content, diferent servers, diferent database,
same address, same phone numbers, it is my company. I just want to tell traffic that they should go the new page
What is your suggestion
-
Nofollowing allows you to safely link to another site, but if both sites are targeting the same keyword universe and you are exposing ownership by interlinking, same phone number, same address, same server, similar url and site structure, same database, etc then you are going against Google's guidelines. Interlinking just puts you at more of a risk if that is the case.

Low quality links
Hi I have found a lot of links from a majestic report (not found on moz open site explorer). inwhich I have found lots of links from 2010 and possibly earlier which either I can't get hold of the webmaster. Is a disavow the right way to go if I can't get them removed myself? Also I have noticed that there are a lot of free directories listing new pages from our site and I am concerned Google are going to find these. I surpose there is nothing I can do about this, does anyone have any recommendations.

WP Datar site shady linking to my site
Hello, I have done some research on this but cannot find a solid answer to my question. After recently reviewing my "not found" errors in webmaster tools, I see that a site called "WP Datar" has linked to a number of our pages that actually do not exist. I am wondering first, if this will harm our site, and second, what is the best way to get those links from their site taken down? I tried emailing, but of course, the email address listed on the site did not work. 🙂 Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Can I Point Multiple Exact Match Domains to a Primary Domain? (Avoiding Duplicate Content)
For example, lets say I have these 3 domains: product1.com product2.com product.com The first 2 domains will have very similar text content, with different products. The product.com domain will be similar content, with all of the products in one place. Transactions would be handled through the Primary domain (product.com) The purpose of this would be to capitalize on the Exact match domain opportunities. I found this seemingly old article: http://www.thesitewizard.com/domain/point-multiple-domains-one-website.shtml The article states that you can avoid duplicate content issues, and have all links attributed to the Primary domain. What do you guys think about this? Is it possible? Is there a better way of approaching this while still taking advantage of the EMD?

Links from automated translations can damage the source?
I've a website dataprix.net composed by automated translations in diferent languages from original contents from another website, dataprix.com. Is good for dataprix.com to be linked by the contents of dataprix.net as the source of translated content, or could be considered by Google as a lot of low quality links and result on penalties for dataprix.com?

Best Link Building Practices to Avoid Over Optimizing
With all the new over opting talk, one of the things mentioned is having the same anchored text linking to a page over and over without variation. Is there a good estimate on how many external linking in keywords should be exact versus how many should be in variation? Also, keeping value of pages links in mind. Would it be best to use [Exact] phrase for the higher PR sites or more relevant higher traffic sites? and save the long tail or keyword variation text for the lesser valued sites. When to use exact phrase and when to long tail is my question/discussion I always stay relevant in my link building, and all my links are liking within context. Because I know that relevancy has been an important factor. After watching this video from Matt Cutt's http://youtu.be/KyCYyoGusqs I assume relevancy is becoming even more of an important factor.
