Thanks Keri and sorry for not getting back sooner Akhilesh. Keri is right that I am in the UK.
As Keri has said, you really need to read the section on link building and content - If you get this wrong, you can cause yourself some big problems.
Have a read of this so that you are sure what you need to be doing... http://moz.com/beginners-guide-to-seo/growing-popularity-and-links

I suggest reading the Beginner's Guide to SEO, especially the sections on content and links, and also our blog's link building section.
-
Thanks Keri,
Means now a days link building is only posting blog content in website then share with social profiles with putting links OR any other way for link building.
Can you clear me if something i am missing.
Really will be very Gratefully to me.

Content sharing does not mean reposting another site's blog on your blog. See my earlier response for examples of sharing content.
-
My mean can we share other Blog content in our blog ? This is called content sharing?
If we will share then Google can penalised if we put source?
If website is not under DMCA then we can do?
Thanks,
Akhilesh
-
What do you mean by share other blog content?
If you mean repost the content on your site, you need to look at the original site for their policies on copying the content, and to see if it is copyright. Many blogs do have their content copyright, and may file a DMCA notice if you republish their posts without permission.

Thanks KeriMorgret,
I am agree with you. we can share any other blog content to our blog section to mention source url where we found and put no follow tag?
Thanks,
Akhilesh

Sharing an article is not the same as republishing an article. You can go on Facebook or Twitter and say "Wow, this is a great post about xyz" and put a link to the post. Or you can say how you really disagree about the post, write your own post, link back to the original post.
For shareable content, we're also talking about things like my mother writing about her cross-country travels on her blog, and including links to sites that talk in-depth about a place that she visited. She's sharing the links and the content (by sharing the link) with her readers because that site goes into much more detail than she could about a particular place.

Hi KeriMorgret,
Thanks for update.I agree with you.
If moz staff can provide us my question answer will be good.
My question is:
Suppose i read one article than how can share because Google don't allow to publish content for other website. I think this will be duplicate to us.
How can share other content in our website and same for other how can share our content on his website?

Hello Akhilesh,
I just wanted to leave a quick note that Andy is another Moz user like you, and not an employee or contractor with Moz. He's volunteering his time to give you answers, and appears to be on a different continent (and time zone) from you.
In a couple of other questions, people have suggested that you read the Beginner's Guide to SEO. Have you had a chance to do this yet? There's a section on link building at http://moz.com/beginners-guide-to-seo/growing-popularity-and-links that you may find helpful.
-
Andy please give your input on above. I am still waiting.
Thanks,
Akhilesh

Thank you very much Andy.
My last question is suppose i read one article than how can share to create link earning because Google don't allow to publish content for other website.
So question is how can share other content in our website and same for other how can share our content on his website?
Thanks,
Akhilesh

You can and should link to your own internal content using strong anchor text as this helps Google to crawl their way around. However, don't make it spammy - be descriptive and imagine you were a user reading the anchor text, would it describe the page that it leads to?

Thanks again Andy,
If we did create one internal WordPress Blog in any website and posting regularly in internal blog then can we put link on any keywords for our internal blog content?
Thanks,
Akhilesh

- The rule for anchor text is to make it descriptive if it is an internal page on your own site, but when trying for a link from an external site, keep the link as natural as possible. This means your link should either be your brand, like iNet SEO, your URL like www.inetseo.co.uk or something neutral like Click Here. If you try for descriptive money-heavy keywords, you are likely to be cause yourself problems down the line.
- Google are always tweaking their algorithms, and eventually many sites will get hit for not taking care of their link profile. Stay current with what Google want now and ensure more longevity.
- As with all external sites, it is all about sharing good information and using plenty of caution. For social media sharing, that's what it is there for - get busy sharing and trying to get others to share your information too. Local business websites are OK, as long as they are one of the reputable. The likes of Yelp, Yell, etc., tend to be OK, but don't go for anything that looks like it could cause you harm.

Hi Andy,
Thanks for your valuable answer.
All points are good but i want to ask below questions.
1.Can we put keywords anchor link in Blog content?
2.Competitor doing most of the Old link building but he is on top. I don't why?
3.Can we should do local business website like yelp, Hotfrog and social website like Digg, Delicious etc. -
Hi Akhilesh,
What you want to be doing is looking at Linkable Assets - these can be images, graphics, tools, research studies, articles, and indeed anything else that would be considered link-worthy. They are a reason someone will want to link through to your website. This sometimes means getting creative with your thinking.
- What does your site offer and is it different / better than other competitors?
- Where are your competitors getting their links from?
- Do you write blog posts?
- Are you active on Social Media?
- What makes you stand out - if nothing, then create something that does.
It can take a bit of work to get there, but once you have some ideas under your belt and you get into the flow, you will want to get sharing this and perhaps even look at doing some outreach to other sites who would be interested in mentioning you.

Hi Mate,
Its very hard to any website user will share our content or link.
User enter in to website and after gathering information or fill request form return in to SERP.
Can you give me any website example?
Thanks,
Akhilesh

Hi Akhilesh,
In theory it sounds simple - you create great content on your site so your visitors will naturally share and link to it. However, that's easier said than done.
Cheers.

Is Forum Link Building a Waste of Time in 2018?
Hi there, this is a general question about link building strategies in 2018. It actually relates to reports derived from the link building audit tool on SEMrush, so forgive that. We use Moz as well, it's just that we happen to be working in SEMrush for link analysis. Basically, the audit tool looks at our links and our competitors' links. It has come back with a number of 'opportunities' for link building and I'm questioning the value of many of them, in 2018. Many of the 'opportunities' the tool is suggesting we explore include answering forum questions on places like Reddit, Quora, etc. The tool has been good at identifying topical threads which might hold promise (a very specific branch of legal services) but most of the threads are 3 - 8 years old. To answer them, I would need to muster someone with expertise to post a relevant answer. So, obviously, my question is does anyone think there is any value in this sort of link building in this day and age? I really think our greatest value will be in guiding their content strategy and looking for content creation opportunities on high authority sites. Thoughts?

We are moving to HTTPS and wanted to know if our link building efforts were in vain or will the link juice pass to HTTPS?
We are switching to HTTPS and want to make sure the links we've gotten in the past will still transfer since they are pointing to HTTP? I'd hate to go back through and ask people to please add an s to the link.

Link building via Rafflecopter
I received an invite from a company to enter a contest for a chance to win a prize. The contest is run by Rafflecopter. Rafflecopter looks interesting because you can place the contest anywhere including social sites and your own website. Contestants can increase the chances of winning in various ways such as an FB like, tweet, etc. The largest number of points (for this particular contest) are awarded for linking from your website to their website. Given that the contestant must add the link to their website and the sponsoring company can not control whether they use nofollow, couldn't this contest approach to link building cause problems for SEO? If the contest included instructions to copy and paste the html with a nofollow, that would seem like a better solution, but the only guidance given was to link to their home page. Your thoughts? Best,

Building links to reviews: Movies, Restaurants, etc
My site has lots of reviews: Movies, TV, Music, Restaurants, etc. I'm looking for sites that take critic reviews and link back to the critic's site. We're already on Metacritic.com and Rottentomatoes.com, which seems to be the two biggies for movies & tv. But I'm sure there are more out there. Also, I'd love to find sites for restaurant reviews (specifically in the Boston area). Are there any lists out there of sites like these? I'm NOT looking for UGC sites that allow user reviews. I'm looking for sites that accept professional critic reviews, preferably via some sort of automated feed. Thanks Mozzers!

India and Link Building
A client of mine has decided to work all Link Building through an India team that she's used for a few years. The problem that I'm having with this situation is that the link building list below contains quite a few 0/10 PR websites, spam websites, and websites that have no direct relation to the client's industry. Am I wrong in thinking that link building should be done to high PR, authoritative sites that are related the the client's industry? The link below will take you to the Google Doc that contains all links built for this client. I would love it if someone could take a look at that list and tell me what they think. Is this recipe for disaster or great link building? https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B4a0JOKKFu0SUFZRbFRBNUZJekE Thank you so much!!!

Link Building for lower budgets that work on 2012
Hello, I think many of us have re-plan their SEO strategy since the latest updates from Google and we all saw that coming anyway. We already know that link building using Directories, Article sites, Link exchange, profiles, footer/side links, paid links, press releases and other have been devalued or not working at all. For low budget websites and websites that cannot afford fresh/valued updated content or other link baiting techniques there arent much left. I my self found that Social Media and Blogging (Guest posts) are they only techniques left for websites that cannot manage to get natural links. Also i have realized that On-page optimization is getting more attention again. We all have great ideas of acquiring links but what we do when time and budget is limited? Google promotes natural link building but how you supposed to get natural links from a new low reputation website? I kinda of like the new approach since it will make SEO work a lot of harder and eliminate the easy path success. It will also focus the SEO job more on On-page and on great content. But this is getting a lot of harder for new websites with lower budgets and lower time to consume on SEO. I deeply know the answer of my question but i would like your opinion also and of course if anyone would like to share some ideas or know-how to discuss is welcome.

Outsourcing Link Building
I have searched through various freelance sites for link building services, and it looks like there are plenty of people who can get links on PR4+ sites at a pretty cheap rate. You know how they always say when it looks too good to be true, it probably is too good to be true? People are charging around $250 for 50 links on sites with good page rank, do follow, etc... Do you think it could help or hurt my SEO campaign, considering I have a good site with solid content and other good content posted on the web?
