Twitter followers and link campaigns
-
Hi All,
This may be a silly question but I like to ask the obvious
If i had acround 3,000 twitter followers and wanted to embark on a link campaign, would it be wise to simply tweet out to all and essentially say, please link to my site XXXX or would it be better to select individual followers and email them directly?
I was wondering if its just a 'win win' with tweeting followers or whether poor links from some users might cause more harm than good.
Thanks all

I don't think you'll get much benefit from just sending a tweet to all and say please RT this or put a link somewhere.
In my experience, especially with Twitter it is better to build a good relationship first and then start asking for a link or a RT.
If you want more social signals you're probably best offering unique content that people want to share and RT themselves.
The only thing I think would do harm is sending the tweet out - I'd expect to see a huge drop in followers.

Do no follow links have any seo value at all?
I saw some test results of no follow links from some years back and it seemed to indicate that Google still counts the anchor text in no follow links provided the page is already indexed and has do follow links pointing to it. The test results seemed to indicate that Google does count the links and uses the anchor text to cause the page to rank higher in the serps for those key words. any truth to this? If i don't expect any traffic whatsoever from a no follow link should i not build it? Take care, Ron
