Welcome to the Q&A Forum

PowerMapper has a free trial.  Works great.  I haven't found a free solution however this is a great tool.

Am I correct in stating that linking to every article about your company is a bad idea.  I see a lot of sites with followed links to the articles that link to them.  Is this not devaluing the link?  I've been recommending removing the links or no indexing the page and no following the links.  Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

@Donnie and @TheeDesign-

Thanks for the great insights!

Thanks for the quick response.  The links are not spammy per se, however the two websites have drastically different content.  To be specific, the old owner had a horse supplies company on the domain and the new one provides banking maintenance.  Most of the links point to the homepage, but again they are from sites about horses, and not about financial equipment.  Now I'm sure this happens all of the time with domain transfers, I'm just wondering if there is a best practice for keeping or removing said links, especially in the wake of the Penguin update.

I'm currently working on a project where most of the links are from irrelevant sources referring to the site of the past domain owner.  My question is should I remove as many of these as possible or let them be for now.  My gut tells me for every new link I build that I should attempt to remove some of the old ones but I'm not exactly sure on how to proceed with this situation.  Thanks in advance for any input.

I'd like to get traffic information and facebook /twitter stats for a company.  Don't know their ua, logins or have access to any of their pages.  Where can I find this information?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
