Has anyone seen positive results from using Submiteaze to submit to directories? I know an SEM agency that uses it for clients' link building campaigns, but I don't know if it is worth buying. Are there better alternatives?
-
I would like to start a link building initiative at my company for a new website, and would like to know if the value of the links built using Submiteaze would be worth the money.
-
Submiteaze may include at least some quality directories. Personally, I've never seen a niche- market high quality directory that allows anything other than direct submission though.
-
Thanks for the feedback NinjaMarketer and Alan. I understand that you have to be selective when choosing which directories to post to, but doesn't Submiteaze allow you to choose where you want to post. From my understanding it just helps complete forms faster than if you were to do it all manually. Do you know if access to higher value directories is limited when using this software because then I could see how it would really be a waste?
-
I'm in complete agreement with NinjaMarketer on this one. Also consider chambers of commerce, other high quality business or industry specific directories, on a case by case basis. Each one needs to be properly evaluated to ensure the highest quality possible, along with the most relevance - either geographically, or market focused. There is no "easy" or "quick fix" path to this process if you want to get maximum value.
-
Directory submissions are a total waste of time. Personally, I would not use any software solutions that offer mass directory / article / comment submissions because these fall under grey area and search engines don't value these anymore like they use to years ago.
Local directory submission to websites like angielist, superpages, citysearch, yelp is certainly useful for local rankings.

What Makes A 'Natural Link Profile'?
I find it hard to recognize unnatural link patterns when the links to my site are so familiar. It can be hard to see the wood for the trees! How many links from one site is too many? Does it depend on the size of the site? Thanks for your advice on this.

Paid Directory Links
To my surprise, I couldn't find a clear answer to the questions "Do paid directory links violate Google guidelines?" I know Matt Cutt's recently had a video on paid links, but it didn't really cover paid directory links. Are well-curated directory sites that charge for inclusion violate Google's guidelines? A good example would be the business.com directory.

Linksmanagement.com anyone use it?
linksmanagement.com anyone use it? I have seen reviews up and down just wondering if they are safe. Seems pretty simple you pay for the sites you want to be on. I assume the fees are monthly.

Are you using ArticleBase.com for link building?
I'm digging my way through my competitors' link profiles on OSE and came across one that had been using a site called ArticleBase.com Apparently you can publish articles for free and browse other published articles for usage on your own site (provided you follow their TOS). It actually seems like a nifty idea. I'm wondering if anyone has utilized this site for re-publishing content and building external links. Worth the effort? Thanks!

Why doesn't the Better Business Bureau show up in my link analysis
I've been working on SEO for one of the companies I've designed a website for and I'm confused by the company's lack of Better Business Bureau backlinks. The Company in question does have a BBB account and that account links back to the company's website. However, when I check in the link analysis for the site, the BBB link doesn't appear. My competitors, on the other hand, do have BBB links in their analyses. So, I'm wondering if I somehow don't have the right type of BBB account. The BBB seems to be a pretty good place to have a link from, and the company pays $300.00 per year for the membership, so I'd like to get the most out of it. Here's a link to the BBB page for the company http://www.bbb.org/utah/business-reviews/plumbers/platinum-plumbing-services-in-west-jordan-ut-22199778#bbblogo And here's the company's website www.slcplumbing.com Now, the company site I've just listed is 301 redirected to www.platinumplumbinginc.com, but even when www.slcplumbing.com was the main site, the BBB backlink didn't show up. Thank you Blake
