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.

C-Block and link juice
We manage a couple of different domains on different hosting providers. I want to consolidate to one provider, but one site has some good links juice to another site (actually just one link). Should I worry about having both sites on the same C-block - and probably the same IP address?

Purchasing Expired Domains for SEO Value?
While doing competitive research for a client I have stumbled on a "site developed by" footer link for a fairly established business that points to an expired domain. I'm inclined to notify the business in question that the link is expired BUT I was curious to get some thoughts on if purchasing this domain and redirecting it to my site or another would be a good purely "SEO tactic" as it would seemingly pass "juice"??? Thanks, Dave

Are these links bad for my results?
In the past we have requested links on multiple directories. Since we have seen a mayor drop (60% in traffic) in results around the pinquin update 24-26th of April. Our results have been slowly getting lower and lower in Google. Is it possible to tell if these links are in fact doing my site harm? Before the 26th of April it was easy to see that the results where benefiting from the submission to those directories. We did not have any messages in webmaster tools and reconsideration says "no manual spam action taken". What would be the best strategy to turn this around and go up again? A selection of the requested links can be found below. <colgroup><col width="266"></colgroup>

Guest Post Blogging And Exchanging Links
Hi, I hope you are all well. Would there be any problem with exchanging a guest blog, so two websites doing a guest post for each other and both sites linking back to each other. I don't think this would be an issue on a small scale though I just wanted to see what everyone else thought. Are there any other things I should bear in mind when doing this as well? Kind Regards

How to Remove Unwanted Links
I dropped like a rock in Google rankings on the 24<sup>th</sup>
White Hat / Black Hat SEO | | rdominey
of April. After having to become familiar with Google webmaster tools and doing
allot of investigating I discovered that there is a website www.siteloki.com that has 6,742 links to my website. I have
tried to contact siteloki with no response. I tracked them on Whois to an
office suite in LA called the building to find that the suite listed is the
building management suite. I have had
the following sent to them via email, their contact page and posted on their website
forum and still no reply: Please take action to remove all links to this website
immediately! I have been notified by my client that your website has a
malicious attack using links from www.siteloki.com
against www.getyourphotosoncanvas.com. My client did not solicit these links, pay for these links or authorize any
third party to build links for them. They just appeared. The links are even
pointing to my client’s old website (same url). This is a big problem and I
don’t understand why these links exist. There are currently 6,471 links from
your domain. Please remove these links immediately or we will consider legal
action against your company. We have contacted Google on the behalf of our
client and informed them of this malicious act. I expect to see these links
removed immediately! Regards, I have submitted the site in the malware reporting section
of webmasters tools. I have searched but cannot find any documentation on how
to block this type of attack. It seems that Google failed to provide any means
for an honest website owner following the rules to block this type of attack and
as a result we have been unjustly penalized by Google with a drop to the bottom
in our page ranking. I would appreciate ANY HELP in removing these links and getting the Siteloki website blocked from linking to my website? Any Ideas?0 -
