The Link in Profile Page is it good BackLink or not?
-
Well, i see that we need 200mozpoints to be able to put our Website Link (DOFOLLOW) into our profile in SEOMOZ.. the way i know it, it would be a good BackLink for my site.
Here is the questions, please do answer from top to bottom, because if you have answered "NOT GOOD" for the first question, then the rest of the question will definitely be "NOT GOOD" too
Every single back link source i used below (for question #2 and #3), comes from a good domain (it is an extremely wellknown website in Indonesia)
1. Is the DOFOLLOW link from my SEOMOZ Profile Page , a good back link?
2. is the DOFOLLOW from http://www.indonesiaindonesia.com/m4g1c14n a good back link
3. is the DOFOLLOW from http://www.kaskus.us/member.php?u=10407 (click the Contact Info), a good back link?
okay, only if you answered the first 3 questions with "It is a good backlink, and it will definitely help your SEO Standing for your site", then i ask you my real question..
i was planning to use the service from http://www.monsterbacklinks.com , and i asked them to show me what kind of "High Quality Backlink" they will be giving me, here is their reply, 10 examples of profile they use to backlink to one of their client

Domain PR 5--http://forums.cagepotato.com/members/paulc4312.htmlIn my eyes, all of those links are as good as the one link coming from SEOMOZ Profile, hell in fact i have already purchased from them the 750 High Quality BackLink package (cost 197$), but my PayPal is being lock down just now, because i login to my account from both my cellphone and pc (they think my account is hacked)...
so will i increase my SEO Standing if i used their service? if they are, i will finalized my purchase tomorrow (after i settled the problem with paypal)
Their FAQ Page is also very convincing .. such these 2 questions
Will I get penalized for paying you to do my backlinks?
There is no way you will get penalized for paying us to do your backlinks. It is possible to get penalized for paying people to put links on their sites but that's not what you're buying from us. When purchasing from us you are paying us to place thousands of free backlinks. There is absolutely no way Google can penalize you for this.
Will Google ban/sandbox me for getting so many backlinks?
We have never had any problems with getting sanboxed or banned by google. None of our customers have had any problems either. If our methods of placing backlinks were to get a site penalized or banned then we would be sending thousands of links towards our competitors sites. But since our methods work great for increasing search engine rankings, we would never use our backlinking on our competitors because that will damage our rankings and boost theirs.
Please enlighten me

Create a blog and write on subjects you are knowledgable about and that are on-topic for your website. Send these out via social channels and you will reap the rewards

But... hmmm so i should also start writing article inside my company website...
hmmm interesting idea.. perhaps i should start writing article about technique that might interest people? or just write anything? most of the time, when i write in my company's website, i always try to weight if this article will benefit my company or not... perhaps i should try to think "will this article interesting for the viewer..."
Perhaps i should be writing more Tutorials for my own website
Hmmm a good food for thought indeed
Thanks a lot

Dont worry about follow and no follow. just concentrate on getting yourself spread as wide as possible. Tweet, Digg, Like, InShare, +1 et al. Get your articles out to as many places as possible
-
When you are saying go social with it.. does it mean i should try to publish my content through facebook ? or it is the other one, that i need to publish the content through some blog / website ?
but all the links coming out of facebook is even worse the NOFOLLOW links x_x, it is a redirect and will that help my linkbuilding mission? O.o;
-
I'm afraid I would never condone the use of such a service because at some point, Google is going to look at these in more detail and see hundreds of back-links from non-relevant sites and directories and will act accordingly, as only Google can.
I understand your frustration, but bide your time, get some great content written and go social with it
-
yeah i like your answer... in an ideal world , i would be doing that . The problem is our compatitor such as this one http://www.opensiteexplorer.org/www.niadesain.com , is having a lot of links (thousands) coming from a lot worse spam site, and yet, they are doing extremely well in SERP ... trully, my site serves an infinitely better content compared to that site, but the backlinks they had from all those spam site is tremendous. And of course i dont plan to get a backlink from any spam site, but my example here is that the links come from a perfectly good site...
I am hopeful, that at least, although i am paying something, that i would be able to compete agains those that employ the use of spam site

Basically, you want to stop worrying about do-follow and no-follow and go for relevance. You also want to look at citations and mentions as well because there is much more at work with Social SEO than there once was.
On the other note, try not to pay anyone else to submit and try to gain you backlinks unless it is part of an agreed SEO program. My advice here is to walk away and just create great content that will see you getting linked to.
Also, be active in Social Media to build your reputation and standing.
Regards,
Andy

Do links from subdomains pass the authority and link juice of main domain ?
Hi, There is a subdomain with a root domain's DA 90. I can earn a backlink from that subdomain. This subdomain is fresh with no traffic yet. Do I get the ranking boost and authority from the subdomain? Example: I can earn a do-follow link from **https://what-is-crm.netlify.app/ **but not from https://netlify.app

Partner Site In Bound Links
We have a staffing agency client that uses a 3rd party site (with different URL) to display open jobs for web viewers to see. However we are getting a bunch of backlinks from this site from the footer because it is set up as a White Label... Should I add a rel=nofollow to the links in the footer? Disavow the links from the site? Do nothing? I am not really sure. Thanks!

Is there a danger linking to and from one website too many times?
Basically my webdeveloper has suggested that instead of using a subfolder to create an English and Korean version of the site I should create two different websites and then link them both together to provide the page in English, or in Korean, which ever the case may be. My immediate reaction is that search engines may perceive this kind of linking to be manipulative, as you can imagine there will be a lot of links (One for every page). Do you think it is OK to create two webpages and link them together page by page? Or do you think that the site will get penalized by search engines for link farming or link exchanging. Regards, Tom

Product Reviews – Link Building Strategy
I own Simply Bags and have been sending sample bags to bloggers as a link building strategy. The following four links are a sample of recent product reviews. http://bit.ly/Mk6Z1t http://bit.ly/Mk6Smq http://bit.ly/Mk7atN http://bit.ly/Mk7wR8 Product reviews were considered a good link building strategy. After Panda & Penguin is Product Reviews still a good strategy? Please comment on the quality of the four sample links. Thanks

Thought on optimising the perfect keyword location link
My site works a bit like a directory, so say I have a page called "Ice Cream Vendors" - on that page I would talk a bit about Ice Cream Vendors, then I will have a list of Ice Cream Vendor Locations. My list of locations can be quite big depending on the product and the amount of locations they occur in - when you click a location, it goes to a page showing all "ICeCream Vendors" in that location. So Currently I will have a table on the page a bit like this: ICE CREAM VENDOR LOCATIONS
White Hat / Black Hat SEO | | James77
New York
Miami
Las Vegas This is all perfectly nice, simple and usable - BUT it is not producing perfect keyword links - for perfect keyword links the list should be like this: ICE CREAM VENDOR LOCATIONS
New York Ice Cream Vendors
Miami Ice Cream Vendors
Las Vegas Ice Cream Vendors Now I have my perfect anchor links - BUT it looks rediculous and is NOT user friendly. So What do I do?
1/. Build it for users and not have perfect anchor links, and loose in SEO?
2/. Build a perfect SEO links and make it less usable and looking spammy? OR 3/. Deliver the search engine the perfect SEO links, and the user the userfriendly version? In this I mean I could do the following:
SE's (and screen readers I think would see):
ICE CREAM VENDOR LOCATIONS
New York Ice Cream Vendors
Miami Ice Cream Vendors
Las Vegas Ice Cream Vendors Users would See
ICE CREAM VENDOR LOCATIONS
New York
Miami
Las Vegas Now in my view I am doing nothing wrong - I am mearly giving the user the most userfriendly version and I am giving the SE more information on the link, that the user doesn't need. So - In my view I am doing something that is honest - but what are your thoughts?? Has anyone tried to do this? Thanks0
