Hi Akhilesh,
Link velocity is determined by hopefully real natural factors. For instance, your client and you discuss a way to get some attention brought to whatever their product or services. Let us say you put out a press release and because that product is unique enough or interesting enough therefore it will be picked up by a lot of bloggers and legitimate media outlets including sometimes national news stations. I have a client who currently gains 60 links a day on average naturally he went from gaining maybe two a day to a natural 1000 today when it hit Fox news, NBC ABC etc. we got lucky to an extent but we knew the negative link velocity was going to occur it was not like this was in a be a surprise. So I can tell you that Google does view things that are not manipulative to their rankings as legitimate therefore will not come after you. To imagine a peek like that for a week and then a consistently higher daily link intake than you had before that is great but it did not affect the rankings negatively when it came down but what was really doing was just settling it had no idea that there was going to be a slowdown to that degree until it occurred. At the end of the day I am still extremely happy of what we did we got the website a lot more domain authority and domain trust long with a lot more traffic we have quadrupled base traffic in one quarter. The use a lot of techniques because you have to use Google plus, twitter, linked in whatever will get you attention and it has to be high quality or people will not stick around. I know people use that word a lot but it really has to be a lot of work done.
I have put a lot of time and wrist a lot of my own money proving that press releases are completely legitimate method when used correctly not when you are just throwing stuff out there hoping some is going to catch it and then write it. I recommend actually putting in the time and the money with a real quality public relations agency I also recommend using Wistia in order to have your clients make a once a week the video similar to white board Friday's however make it relevant to their industry. You know they talk about it I got to speak to Chris at search love and they grew their business by speaking about relevant topics in their industry and getting ranked that way through videos pointing back to their site. That is amazing because the cost is not high it has white hat it is great for content and the end-user it should be implemented immediately. You should also transcribe them this will create content for you that is natural and one-of-a-kind.
Videos have the schema in them if there using the super or Seo embed on Wistia in addition to helping your site rank they keep people on your site longer and if you allow them to have the embed code (the I-frame embed code) and the video is good enough it will be shared people will simply put it on their website and it will point links back to your website.
You can do this with other video providers I believe there is a tool on distilled if you look up "Phil Nottingham distilled back link video tool" you will find it. Keep in mind though all the stuff that you need is already in Wistia if you can give those PR releases out with your video you will get a lot of links. I hope that answers some of the questions here are some links on link velocity and other methods being used that are okay with Matt Cutts

Thanks Thomas,
Can you explain @ We need to earn natural links by making sites better for the end user.
Below are the article point want to discuss with you and other viewers.
7. Your Rankings Will Drop If You Stop Building Links
“Can we build links for three months then stop and see what happens?”
No, we can’t. Can you go to the gym for three months, stop and then expect to keep those ten pounds off?
Link building is a constant and continual process. There is no “maintenance mode” that we can switch to once we reach your goals. Search engines reevaluate listings and their algorithms constantly, and the only way to still say relevant to them is by keeping your links and your content fresh. Stopping link building may keep you stable for a month, maybe more, but you will lose all of your progress by doing nothing.
What’d I miss? What are some other things you wish top execs knew about link building?
Thanks
Akhilesh

Would you mind summarizing the question I appreciate the link to the article but are you asking my opinion on everything contained in the article and what my opinion in contrast to the authors is?
I think the word link building is a bad word now I can tell you that.
I am unfortunately I will have to find more time to read the article before I can give you a full reply I am sorry.
Why do not you just list the things that you would like answered and I would be more than happy to tell you what I think.
I do believe that the word link building should be removed from search because it sounds manipulative from the get go.
We need to earn natural links by making sites better for the end user and I will read this article and get back to you.
Sincerely,
Thomas

PDF Sharing sites - scribd/dropbox/edocr/etc Cleaning Up SEO History
Howdy, Whilst in the process of cleaning up a new clients seo profile and have encountered a lot of techniques I am uncomfortable with and in my opinion should be removed. One technique I have not seen before is using a load of pdf sharing and video sites. The domains have high DA ratings, but to me the intention is highly questionable. The sites include: https://www.dropbox.com/s/tuxb8w1qowcm27i/Looking for boiler spares-geniune parts and consumables.pdf?dl=0 http://www.scribd.com/doc/241542076/Looking-for-Boiler-Spares-geniune-Parts-and-Consumables http://www.divshare.com/download/26207602-569 And so the list goes on for about 50 domains. Am I correct to be concerned here and what was the seo plan here? Thanks in advance. Andy Southall. (Marz Ventures)

Is article syndication still a safe & effective method of link building?
Hello, We have an SEO agency pushing to implement article syndication as a method of link building. They claim to only target industry-relevant, high authority sources. I am very skeptical of this tactic but they are a fairly reputable agency and claim this is safe and works for their other clients. They sent a broadly written (but not trash) article, as well as a short list of places they would syndicate the article on, such as issuu.com and scribd.com. These are high authority sites and I don't believe I've heard of any algo updates targeting them. Regarding linking, they said they usually put them in article descriptions and company bylines, using branded exact and partial matches; so the anchor text contains exact or partial keywords but also contains our brand name. Lately, I have been under the impression that the only "safe" links that have been manually built, such as these, should be either branded or simply your site's URL. Does anyone still use article syndication as a form of link building with success? Do you see any red flags here? Thanks!

Disavow tool for blocking 4 to 5 sites for Article Republishing
Am finding some very low authority sites (recently picked our articles from ezine and other article sites - written over a year back) and pasted on to there site. The number of articles copies are not 1 or 2, but more than 10-12 in all these domains This has also led to our anchor based url - backlink to us from them (a part of article). Have Wrote down to remove my author profile and articles - but there has been no response from webmaster of these sites. Is Disavow a right approach. The number of such sites are 4 or 5 in nature !!

Duplicate Articles
We submit articles to a magazine which either get posted as text or in a flash container. Management would like to post it to our site as well. I'm sure this has been asked a million times but is this a bad thing to do? Do I need to a rel=canonical tag to the articles? Most of the articles posted to that other site do not contain a link back to our site.

Another example would be http://active.tutsplus.com , yesterday i have successfully pitched a tutorial idea, and they told me to write it so that they can published it , and they also promised that i will be able to put my site link (dofollow) ... But will these link be a Good BackLink that will increase our site's SEO Standing? The last one is exactly the same link , but this time coming from a News Site , such as http://teknologi.kompasiana.com/internet/2011/06/09/website-full-flash-dengan-inovasi-hebat-karya-indonesia/ , in this article (kompasiana is a very wellknown site news in Indonesia, in fact KOMPAS is the biggest newspaper firm in Indonesia) , our site is being featured , there is a link coming out of that article (DOFOLLOW), but will that link make our site much more SEO Friendly? Again please enlighten me 🙂

Difference between Syndication, Autoblogging, and Article Marketing
Rands slide deck titled 10 Steps to Effective SEO & Rankings from InfusionCon2011 on slide 82 recommends content syndication as a method for building traffic and links. How is this any different than article marketing? He gave an example of this using a screenshot of this search result for "headsmacking tip discussion." All of those sites that have republished SEOmoz's content are essentially autoblogs that post ONLY content generated by other people for the purpose of generating ad clicks from their organic traffic. We know that Google has clearly taken a position against these types of sites that offer no value. We hear Matt Cutts say to stay away from article marketing because you're just creating lots of duplicate content. Seems to me that "syndication" is just another form of article marketing that spreads duplicate content throughout the web. Can someone help me understand the difference? By the way, the most interesting one I saw in those results was the syndicated article on businessweek.com!.
