Looking for a Search Tool to Help with Finding Potential Networking Opportunities.
-
I am looking for a more effective way to network with similar websites to mine in order to try and do some guest posting or networking and I was wondering if anyone had some good tools for locating those potential sites? Thanks.

You can use Twitter + FollowerWonk or Google (the search engine) + custom queries.
You can type things like these on Google to find potential guest posting opportunities:
"keyword" + "guest post"
"keyword" + "write for us"
"keyword" + "submit your post"
etc.You might be interested: http://findmyblogway.com/finding-guest-post-opportunities/ (discusses about some unique ways)

I have not found a great many services that can help network people in the manner your looking for and have often thought about it being a good business idea.
However, I find twitter to still be one of the most powerful, the people that matter are on there you are able to search for them and you are able to contact them and once you find one Twitter does a great job in recommending others. On a website you just have a contact form or a phone number that takes you to a call handler/receptionist most of the time which can be like hitting a brick wall.
I do not feel that enough people are using LinkedIn for that purpose to make it as effective but it is also worth a try.
But I am not aware of some independent OTHER service that is out there connecting people by industry.

Anyone seeing a big drop in links showing in Google webmaster tools?
Over the last week I have seen a big drop in links to us showing in Google Webmaster tools. The links are still there on sites that rank well including some from National newspapers. However the link count has dropped from over 4000 to less than 40 on approx 5-6 sites. Ranks etc are staying the same its just a bit of a strange thing as they still show in Majestic and Open site explorer.

I want to find websites that have linked 404s to my competitors. My goal is to contact webmasters who have linked to my competitors with 404s, but I cannot figure out how to get Open Site Explorer to give me that data. I can easily see this in GWT for my own site, but I need this for my competition instead. Does anybody know a quick way to get this information?

Link Spamming or Not? Block Internal Search Results From Indexing?
We are looking at providing our customers with the best experience when performing a site search for a product. Would it be bad SEO practice to have our internal search results show results for all 4 Brands linking to different domains? This would mean multiple outgoing links to other owned sites from the same IP. Is it a best practice to block internal search results using robots.txt?
