Based on my link analysis, where should I focus first ?
-
Hi Guys,
I've been putting a lot of effort in getting my rank increase over the past few weeks. I had a lot of changes and improvements to do for my on-page. However, I still struggle to get over the top of some competitors which, in my opinion uses backlinks that might not be all relevant.
I have attached a screen snapshot of my link analysis and I am asking the experts about where should I focus next. We are in the process to put a good content generation strategy, but in the short term, how could I perhaps build backlinks which can give me short term result.

On the image, I rank better on the domain MozRank ? what did we do better than our competitors ?
-
On the total links, wow, we are so way behind ! How could this be possible to reach that amount ? Where can get a list of all these links ? are they relevant ?
-
Should I concentrate on one or many of these first ? External followed links.linking root domain ,followed link root domain, linking c-block ? what are the explanation and how to get better ranking on those ?
-
I just realized that I have no-followed links, how can I identify these ?
Your help would be appreciated.
Best regards,

Maybe your competitor has a banner somewhere, as you can see it only has 42 linking root domains. So if you can manage to get 100 (not a great number) quality links from different domains you have beaten them.
It is definately a good starting point that you have a high mozrank to tell what you are doing well someone should see your page, it is hard to tell it without that. Just be satisfied that you are better and gaining 100 links is not that hard

What link would be better?
Hi Guys, Just wondering what would be better in this instance: finding an old post (with good authority) and getting a link from that old article or creating a brand new article and adding the link to that. Finding an old post (with good authority) and getting a link from that old article Creating a brand new article and adding the link to that. Both naturally link out to the page you want a link too. To me, number 1 as the page already has authority but then again number 2 since Google might place some weight to recency. Any thoughts? Cheers.

Sitewide links and owned site
Hi everyone, I need the community opinion on something. I am webmarketer and SEO for a pure player who runs a couple of e-commerce sites. On one side we have bigsite.com. It makes all our revenue. I have been in charge for years. Results are good. We have smallsite.com. It is starting. But small revenues for the moment. We have a new SEO working on this. My question is : We always had a banner on bigsite.com's homepage, sending valuable traffic to smallsite.com.T he new SEO, has footer sitewide links from smallsite.com to bigsite.com homepage. Considering both sites share same ssl, server and company name, I am quite sure this is out of google's guide lines and would hurt bigsite.com. Do you agree that this is wrong from the new SEO, and that it could hurt my work and the search results for bigsite.com and smallsite.com, as well as team work ? Thanks

Top hierarchy pages vs footer links vs header links
Hi All, We want to change some of the linking structure on our website. I think we are repeating some non-important pages at footer menu. So I want to move them as second hierarchy level pages and bring some important pages at footer menu. But I have confusion which pages will get more influence: Top menu or bottom menu or normal pages? What is the best place to link non-important pages; so the link juice will not get diluted by passing through these. And what is the right place for "keyword-pages" which must influence our rankings for such keywords? Again one thing to notice here is we cannot highlight pages which are created in keyword perspective in top menu. Thanks

Do links to PDF's on my site pass "link juice"?
Hi, I have recently started a project on one of my sites, working with a branch of the U.S. government, where I will be hosting and publishing some of their PDF documents for free for people to use. The great SEO side of this is that they link to my site. The thing is, they are linking directly to the PDF files themselves, not the page with the link to the PDF files. So my question is, does that give me any SEO benefit? While the PDF is hosted on my site, there are no links in it that would allow a spider to start from the PDF and crawl the rest of my site. So do I get any benefit from these great links? If not, does anybody have any suggestions on how I could get credit for them. Keep in mind that editing the PDF's are not allowed by the government. Thanks.

Too many links?
I've recently taken over a site from another agency, which has hundreds of linking root domains. These domains are of very low quality and, in my opinion, are being ignored by Google. Is it best to 'clean up' some of these links, or leave them and start building quality links? I just don't want to waste time cleaning link profiles if there's no need.
