          What is the solution?

          The message from the Akismet Anti-Spam Plugin means your account or content has been flagged as spam, often due to certain link-building practices. Akismet is designed to detect and filter out potentially spammy content, so if it finds too many unnatural or low-quality links, it may suspend your account.

          To address this, start by reviewing your link-building practices to avoid placing excessive or unnatural links, as these can trigger Akismet’s spam filters. Instead, focus on high-quality, relevant sites and avoid automated methods or repetitive links in comments or forums. If you believe your account was unfairly suspended, consider contacting Akismet’s support team, as they may reinstate your account upon review. Moving forward, prioritize genuine, high-value content and links from reputable sites, which can help reduce the risk of being flagged as spam and improve your SEO efforts.

            Has anyone used Fat Joe as an outsource solution for blog links?

            Hi guys, I have seen a company on social media a lot recently who offer a guest blog posting service. It seems to be reasonable quality from the reviews and the blurb they give as they at least seem to find you a relevant blogger to match up with, actually write good content with as many reviews as is needed and then post it to just that one page. I noticed on their site they have claimed that their service is Loved by Moz but I couldn't find any reference to them anywhere on the Moz site. My question is - has anyone used them and are the links going to be any good for my site?

            Dealing with spam link attack

            Last year I noticed that overnight my site was backlinked by 1000's of spammy links.
            All with same anchor text and all really awful unrelated sites (law, money, mobile phone, pr0n sites, etc). I've not been hit with any penalties (or at least been messaged with anything to that effect), and I still float around top 10 for that anchor text, but I don't like having 1000's of spammy links with exact anchor text pointing to my site. Especially when all the other competitors have a fraction of the number of links. What would be the best way to combat these links before they do serious damage to my rankings.
            If you want to see for yourself, the site is www.alexkilbeephotography.co.uk Thanks in advance.

            Web Designers and SEOs using backlinks from client sites

            What are your thoughts on SEOs and web designers putting their own links in the footers of client sites. For the sake of argument, lets assume that the client is happy for the link to be there. I'm referring to the SEO merits of the link being there from an 'irrelevant' website. My belief is that this goes against what Google is looking for and that these are irrelevant links and likely to be picked up and penalised.  That's what I believe! However, I see lots of sites offering SEO services that have dofollow links from their client sites, using exact match anchor text and they are all ranking highly. Is it just a matter of time before Google sniffs them out and penalises them for it?  Or should I be going through my client sites and adding myself a dofollow link in the footer? (with their permission of course). The highest ranking sites in any UK city do this.  If you search SEO Manchester, SEO Leeds etc and find the top ranking sites and check them out on opensite explorer, they are all using a disproportionate amount of dofollow backlinks form client sites.

            Does the ratio of external nofollow links to external "do follow" links matter in terms of SERPs ranking?

            My site has an external link nofollow:dofollow ratio of approximately 1:1 That is, there are about as many nofollow external links as "do follow" external links. I have an impression that the ratio of no-follow to "do follow" links is a factor in the way that our website shows up in SERPs. I have the impression from reading a variety of sources, and from looking at Seomoz, that calculate "trust" factors as if they mattered (in SERPs), that seem to value a relatively low nofollow:dofollow ratio. Am I correct about that? Thanks,
            Tim PS - I don't know whether or not this matters, but our website is at: www.trustworthycare.com - Tim
