Tom and Robert, thanks for your replies guys. I like the idea of looking into using Google display network to serve up my own ads for YouTube videos embedded on my  site instead of competitors ads. Not sure if this is actually possible but will be looking into.

I am running a site in WordPress and would like to know if there is a way to block competitor ads from appearing for the videos I embed to my site? (the videos are not owned or controlled by me, just embeds).

Thanks..

Thanks. Does anyone still see SEO benefits from blog comment links if the link is adding value and relevant to the post being commented on? I see blog comments and forum posts recommended by Jon Cooper over at PointblankSEO - in his linkbuilding course he listed as low value but it's still on his list of link building tasks. Any views?

Hi, could someone please let me know the correct html code to get an anchor text link in a blog comment please? Thanks!

Thanks guys, that what I wanted to hear!

Thanks David, I feel like going out to buy some Swedish Fish for some reason now.

So I just got the link - yippee! When I look at the source code href line with my url I don't see the term 'no follow'. Does this mean I have a followed link?

Just published a static page 2 days ago on WordPress site but noticed that Google has indexed both http:// and https:// url's. Usually I only get http:// indexed though.

Could anyone please explain why this may have happened and how I can fix? Thanks!

Hi Miriam, wow - thanks for going to all that trouble, appreciated!

Thanks for your resposnes - I forgot to mention that this is a UK based site so there are no regional mobile numbers whereas I think there is in the states and some other countries. Does anyone have experience of this in UK?
