How to find keyword related questions to answer?
-
Is there any search operator to find keyword relevant questions on yahoo answers and on other websites? So that I can answer those and put my website link.

Landon,
100% would try playing around with http://ubersuggest.org/
I find it useful for finding some of the high traffic searches around the industry, which can be used for blog article topic research.
For example if its an SEO blog, just a couple of searches like
What is link building? / What is SEO? / What is the best digital marketing software?
You will get lots of ideas that users have been searching for.
Hope this helps

Hi Landon,
The "site:" operator is probably what you're looking for. To use Bob's example of finding questions about SEO on Yahoo answers, it would be:
"site:uk.answers.yahoo.com SEO"
I hope this helps.

Hi Landon,
I would first try to figure out if there are any communities within your industry that have a questions / answers section. If so, it might be more beneficial to focus on one or two communities and make a name for yourself (which can result in business relations and multiple backlinks from other websites).
If there aren’t any or you’re not in it for the long run I would try:
- Search Google with adjusted filters, content from the last 24 hours for example. Something like “seo question” with a filter on the last 24 hours will give some results.
- Set up fresh web explorer or Google Alerts for frequently asked questions. Since it will be hard for a robot to give you only the questions about your topic. Most services just return very specific phrases like brand mentions.
I hope this helps!

A number of times you should use your keyword in a guest blog
Is it true that if you want to rank for a chosen keyword, you have to mention that keyword 3%-5% of the whole content (in a guest blog)?

Should I work with current site or start a new site with more keywords?
I have been working with my site for some time. Sadly, I am moving lower and lower in ranking. I am wondering if I should just transfer my site to a new URL (this time including keywords). I don't understand the whole disavow link thing. I hired someone about 2 years ago, when I lost my ranking due to malicious software. Well, it turns out that, she submitted my link to weird sites that I don't even know what they are. It is like sites with thousands of websites just listed. Things have never been half of what they were and I am really just growing frustrated. I understand that having an a URL for awhile is helpful, but I appear to have lost many of my good linking sites. Any thoughts?

Spammy Links in MOZ but when I go to the external link I can't find a link to us
I was going to try to contact webmasters to see if they would remove some of our spammy links. I see alot of them in MOZ but when you go to the site our anchor text is not there. Is this good? How often does MOZ refresh external links. Please see: http://www.opensiteexplorer.org/anchors?site=www.totalvac.com None of the links for the anchor text <a class="clickable title link-pivot" title="See top linking pages that use this anchor text." data-text="vacuum cleaner parts vacuum parts vacuum bags vacuum cleaner bags" data-id="46391436859">vacuum cleaner parts vacuum part...</a> in MOZ exist? We got hit extremely hard by Penguin in May

One folder/keyword seems penalized.
Hi, One of the keywords i am optimizing for seems to be penalized. We are selling childrens clothes and we have 1 folder/url for each producer/designer. Main page is strong compared to competitors and we are ranging 1st for 2 most important keywords. Most of our other producer pages are ranking 2nd-4th. I took some time to rank and I had a some catalogues(hotvsnot, addsitelink, webzdirectory, 3 blogs) link into this specific folder some 3 months ago. It didnt seem to rise in ranks staying in range 12th-23rd spot. Which seemed sort of weird to me. 2 Days ago it dropped to around 120th spot. No other pages on site dropped. Looking at it now I do see that its almost 100% 'producername' in anchor text which i guess is the reason for the ranking problem and maybe the drop in rankings a couple of days ago. Blog links are completly natural, catalogues are not i guess. The total sum of links doesnt seem natural because the anchor text is same on all. Still its not that unnatural if you sell nike shoes to have a catalogue called nike and the anchor text to be pointing to it to be nike, but still. So my question is: do i try to change anchor text in catalogues or have them completely removed ? Do i get blogs etc to link to my site using an other word than the producer name that might seem less natural ?? Thanks for your help.
