Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Hi, i have a backup software product that I sell to business.

I would like to create a badge that says something like "powered by x backups". This would be an image with a href url pointing back to my company site. I would intend to give the client a discount if they were to place the small logo in the footer section of their website. I would also like to offer this to resellers. For example "Authorised reseller of x backups" badge that could be placed on the resellers website.

I would like to do this for two reasons:

• To promote my company to the visitors of the clients website
• To build link juice

Would this be effective in building quality links? It this type of link building allowed by google? If not, how strict are they? Is there any variation of my intended promotion strategy that would be more effective?

Thanks

I have setup my website to use canonical urls on each page to point to the page i wish Google to refer to.

At the moment, my non-www domain name is not redirected to www domain. Is this required if i have setup the canonical urls?

This is the tag i have on my index.php page

rel="canonical" href="http://www.mydomain.com.au" />

If i browse to http://mydomain.com.au should the link juice pass to http://www.armourbackups.com.au?

Will this solve duplicate content problems?

Thanks
