Can you recommend a tool to identify contact email for list of 1000 domains?
-
We researched a list of about 1000 domains, which are all in one industry segment.
Any tool you can recommend to identify corresponding contact emails, based on domain whois or email on website or in contact page?
what is your experience with sending emails just to info@DOMAIN_NAME ?
-
thanks: I tried it. Buzzstream identified about 25% contact emails of the list.
In the end I did not find a way to export the email adresses out of buzzstream. I contacted support but now after 1 week no repsonse.

Mark,
thanks. I tried seogadget.co.uk, good for lower numbers of websites.
It identified contact emails for about 20% of the sites I tested. You can test a max. of 200 websites at a time.
on the upside it is free.Still will be searching for other tools (even if paid).

Just started using BuzzStream and have found it really helpful. You can upload domains via various sources and it'll return all the info you want and you can then launch outreach emails from within the software. I'm quite taken by it.
-
Keri,
perfectly understand your concern.
in this case all domains are from an updated industry directory with a very specific niche of businesses.Our email is highly relevant to each of these businesses and we actually neither ask for a link nor plan to sell them anything. -
Can you give some details on the type of email you'll be sending? In many cases, automated tools don't provide you with appropriate context. Daily, I receive offers for providing SEO services for my site that offers RC battleships that shoot and sink each other. The only place my email appears on that site is on the About Us page, where I state that I am the webmaster, my day job is at Moz, and to please stop emailing me offers for SEO. It makes for a really bad first impression of a company, and it's what can happen if you only search for contact information without context.
-
You can use scrapebox to scrape whois info for the domains, and then use the emails you get from the scrape.
For manual guess work, you can try using rapportive and plugging in variations and seeing what you find - you can also try this nifty tool built by the team at SEO Gadget to pull contact info and other various metrics - http://tools.seogadget.co.uk/
Good luck,
Mark

Migration to a new domain
Hi everyone, So i have one project where I'm planning to move current content on new domain, two reasons: 1. It seems current domain has some google penalty (backlink related, not manual) 2. Client wants rebranding and already has domain with new brand name. So as content is high quality and there is no content related penalty from google, what would be the best way to migrate existing content without passing any penalty AND without Google treating it as duplicate content. If i do 301 i suspect any penalty there is might follow, if i just copy existing content it won't be original content, what is the best solution here? Thanks

Domain Name Redirect Question
My agency just built a new website for a client who is a franchisee. It's not launched yet - it's currently under an IP address. I suggested to client that he buy a keyword-rich domain name for it, which he did. Then he found out that the franchisor will not allow it to be his main domain name. They want him to use a domain name with the franchisor name in it. But they WILL allow him to put a 301 redirect on that franchisor-approved domain name, and redirect it to his keyword-rich domain name. He is interested in having my agency perform an SEO Campaign for this new website. But would SEO and link marketing work for a website that has a new non-keyword domain name that 301 redirects to a new keyword-rich domain name?

Redirect old .net domain to new .com domain
I have a quick question that I think I know the answer to but I wanted to get some feedback to make sure or see if there's additional feedback. The long and short of it is that I'm working with a site that currently has a .net domain that they've been running for 6 years. They've recently bought a .com of the same name as well. So the question is: I think it's obviously preferable to keep the .net and just direct the .com to it. However, if they would prefer to have the .com domain, is 301'ing the .net to the .com going to lose a lot of the equity they've built up in the site over the past years? And are there any steps that would make such a move easier? Also, if you have any tips or insight just into a general transition of this nature it would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Evaluate the value of domain
We have a chance to purchase a domain with our main KW dot net. We are already a competitor for this KW in its other variations. This domain is currently being used as a re-direct to another site. What are the risks associated with changing domain names and how to best evaluate if this domain will even help us win that KW in Google results?

Nobody Can Answer This? What Can Google Tell About Videos?
I uploaded a video to youtube one time and then went to upload it again, but saved differently with different tags. Youtube rejected the second upload as being the same as the first. Really, it was the same... just a different file with different tags. Now, I was thinking about making and uploading some similar but not identical videos for embedding on some web pages. Was thinking I'd make the voice overs different, but the images mostly the same montage. Do you think Youtube/Google will see it as the same video? I kind of assume that it didn't fly when I first tried it some time ago because youtube was looking at the audio in the way it can make a transcription. Do you think if the audi,o, file name, tags were different, it wouldn't matter if the video was the same? Thanks!

Exact domain or subfolder?
If I am targeting a specific keyword, from an SEO perspective is it better to create a subfolder on a url that has some authority or is it better use the exact domain with no authority? For example, if I want to target the word 'widgets' which is the better choice and why? **Choice 1: ** www.domainwithauthority.com/widgets Note: this domain has 1000 links to it **Choice 2: ** www.widgets.com Note: this is a brand new domain with 0 links

Can your site be penalised by backlinks?
Hi, I just wanted to get some clarification on whether Google would penalize your site if you had many links coming from a questionable site. We've been struggling with rankings for years even though we have one of the oldest sites in the industry with a good link profile and the site is well optimized. I was looking through webmaster tools and noticed that one website links to us over 100,000 times, all to the home page. The site is www.vietnamfuntravel.com. When I looked at the site it seems that they operate a massive links exchange, I'm not sure what the history is and why they link to us so much though. Is there any chance that this could impact us negatively? if it is then what would be the best way to deal with the situation? I could ask them to take the links down but can't guarantee they would do it quickly (if at all). Would blocking their domain from our htaccess file have the desired effect?
