How can influence a directory backling page on your website ?
-
Hi,
Some good directories asked a backlink for having ours listed in their categories. But of course, I am not fan of putting their link on the home page, but creating a page exclusively for these backlinks is a bad thing to mister google ?
thanks in advance !

Well my doubt are going away about this practice, I will beat them the "white way" ! Thanks for your answers !

Just because a site is doing something that goes against Google's Webmaster Guidelines doesn't mean that Google is automatically going to pick it up. However they are always working on ways to improve the quality of their results so it may only be a matter of time for some sites.
Rather than following the competitor site down a murky path it would be better for you to consider other ways to outperform them whether it is via enhanced content or a (non-paid, non-reciprocal) link building campaign

I should agree with that aswer but when I see my competitors above me on our most important keywords doing that kind of link exchange for years, I have some doubts about google slapping them.

Link exchanges are a violation of Google's guidelines. The links can be devalued or much worse upon being caught. I would advise not exchanging links in this manner.

Is it better to develop a good keyword I found on a new page on an established website or make a new site?
So I found a keyword that I want to go after, it gets over 30k searches a month, has a 100% CTR and has a difficulty of 42. Now my question is would it be better to build a page on our already established site (DA of 46) since the site and keyword are both related. Or would it be better to get a domain of that keyword and build a small site about it? The .com is taken but I could get a .co or .us just not sure if its worth making a new site or if I should just build a page on my current site about it.

How Useful is this website for Linkbuilding
I've been looking at A to Z of materials trying to determine how much time it is worth spending on building a company profile and adding additional information http://www.azom.com/suppliers.aspx?SupplierID=2343 DA is 50+ and PA for a new listing seems to be 17 of so. My site currently has a DA of about 20. Once of my competitors seems to have put a lot of time into it Other than a profile you can also write articles and post news. It's worth pointing out that as a whole the sector has no useful blogs and most linkbuilding is done via directory listings. And Most companies have back links from less than 20 other root domains. Thoughts would be gratefully received

SEO Drop rename pages
Some of key product pages have dropped due to what I think is overused anchor text. Can we rename them, and start again?

Is there a cost per acuqistion figure I can quote that if I hire an agency to link build that we can guarantee a level of increased traffic from Google?
I am looking to justify to a pubilsher the cost outlay to hire an agency to do white hat link building for me as we do not have time. (the site is fully optimised but we lack the inbound links our competitors have) - is there a way I can explain in terms of numbers ie page impressions that if we build for eg 10k high quality anchor text links into our site we will get x thousand more page impressions as our rankings in the search engines will increase? Just need a justification before the budget is allocated.
