Where should Youtube videos come from?
-
Is there a benefit to having Youtube videos on your site from other company's Youtube channels or should they come from your own Youtube channel because you can control links and tags?

James,
Maybe we didn't state the issue clearly. What we wanted to know was "should videos posted on our regular web site come from our youtube channel exclusively or from both ours and a partner's channel? Is there some benefit to having videos from multiple channels or from just ours?
Thanks for your help,
Lowell

You can build links via the youtube channel if the video gets alot of link backs to it you can develop a PR5 page.
that been said it is not easy, but you can work alot of link building strategy via YouTube.
Even though description links are no followed, heaps of people scrape youtube and you can build follows that way and also you can drive heaps of traffic via youtube descriptions if made correctly.

More guest blogging penalties coming?
Does anyone foresee any future guest blogging penalties coming from google if the guest blogs are high quality blogs? I'm wondering if a future google update is going to hit even more sites that have used guest blogging as guest blogging continues to grow. I like guest blogging to drive traffic to my site but am scared to used it for fear of future updates in the algorithm. Thanks mozzers!

How fast is too fast when it comes to link building?
I'm getting ready to start a massive link building campaign. I plan on using a variety of anchor texts, getting links from a variety of sources, and only getting high quality links from relevant sites. My main concern is getting penalized for gaining too many links too quickly. Does anyone have any advice on how fast is too fast? Or how much is too much in a certain amount of time? Thanks!

Youtube Backlink
We've had our Youtube Channel fairly optimized for several months now. Part of that effort includes the link back to our site which is allowed on Youtube. When doing link research I see Youtube links being given credit to competitors but haven't seen Youtube show up in backlinks reports for our site yet. Is there any way to speed this up? Our Youtube page with the link has been indexed and a cached version of the page is in Google's SERPs. If there are any tricks to getting this going that anyone is aware of I'd like to hear it. *The link on Youtube returns a 200 and is followable. I'm using the SEOMOZ tool and Open Site Explorer to do backlinking research.

Links from multiple sites coming from the same server?
Hi SEO Mozers, As I structure my link building campaign I come across alot of directories some of which are located on the same server. If I am to place links on these sites is this is negative signal for big G? The reason I ask is because I see that a competitor has used these various directories and is ranking on the no 1 spot for a moderately competetive keyword. I am able to place links on the sites with almost no effort at all therefore even if it does not pass alot of link juice is it still worth it for me. But if this is seen as a negative I would not persue it. What is your thoughts on this? Thanks in advance, Ross
