Welcome to the Q&A Forum

thanks - i just don't see them like i once did - can someone point me that direction - I need to do a cram session with Rand-man before jumping back into the SEO fray...

Thanks for all you guys do

I am writing because I am trying to build a company's SEO link profile with links that have super high, and super stable Domain and Page Authorities (as well as solid Trust and Citation flows).

I do this organically and even build my own sites using moz strategies - BUT, I am in need of your best advice:  What are some links you can "buy" (as a result of using services from) that are strong and dofollow?

Is Constant Contact good?

Is Best of the Web good?

tweetangels smart?

I have seen several businesses with constant contact links (very high domain authority) on their profiles and as the head of business development for a mid-sized marketing firm, I want to see if constant contact, botweb, etc. are smart sources to put my clients on for the sake of the seo profile links - I am looking for strong, long-term perma-bumps for my companies and don't want to miss out on low-hanging fruit (that won't poison me in the end).

Can you speak to that please?

Do you guys have a list of directory links or 'whatever' links that are "get-able" by a regular guy like me that are not simply 2.0 nofollow?

Thank you

Ben

Hey all good mozzers - For my new publishing company, would you recommend building on a Wordpress Platform or a different CMS?  I want it to look great to user and also allow me to fully optimize it for ranking purposes - thanks.

Seems like Wordpress has a ton of possibility and is much cheaper - but I don't want to do all that work if it is not as strong for SEO purposes -

I like to use CMS made simple typically because it is exactly what it claims:  simple

Advise me please - and then  let me know who you think might be able to help me build the best professional site?  company or individual?

thanks

I do basic SEO stuff as well as marketing for quite a few clients.  But, I am wondering which directories or exposure based groups are worth the money?  Is a business.com directory listing for $300 a solid investment to get a strong link?  Is yext a good move?  How about wildfire?  I could use some really high DA links to stack on top of the link profiles I have already built through content, etc.?  Please advise me.

PS Confession:  I was once a pre-panda Fiverr link junkie.  But I am in recovery.  I have an 18 month chip and am currently making amends.

Sorry for my late reply -

I tried the private browsing thing and it still redirects me round and around...

It has been 6 weeks now and I really really need open site explorer to work for me on my laptop...

please walk me through what else i might do to solve this problem...

Sorry to bug you, but I don't know where else to turn...

thanks,

Ben

I am stuck in the redirect loop which seems to have become commonplace when seeking to access open link explorer...

I have cleared my cache.

I have reset and restarted my browser.

And I think I have done what I need to do with cookies.

Someone please help me  - I am using 10.6.8 OSX - Safari - but have also tried chrome

thanks in advance

be blessed

Hey.

One of my main clients has asked to see the crawl data and rankings data for the past eight months.

He wants to have tangible evidence of the effects of Penguin.

I would like that info too.

Is it possible to retrieve that information on a weekly crawl and ranking basis through SEO Moz and if so, how do you do it?

I simply want to show a graph, timeline and brief explanation across several main keywords...

Help me as you guys always do -

You rock

I have blogs/news sites on every one of my clients' websites (each representing a different business within the same industry - self storage).

On each of these blog sites, I have a writer who places about 3-5 exact keyword match links (varying anchor text) to give interlink juice to the other off-site businesses owned by the client.

Each of these blogs receive about five posts per week.

I am sure this is mega-over-optimizing and a stupid thing to do considering penguin.

So, my questions are:

Moving forward - 1.  Should i stop adding so many blog articles to each site?

2.  How many interlinking anchor texts should I use per blog?

3.  Should I go back and either get rid of all those interlinks on past blogs or just trash the blog articles altogether?

Please help if you can - I very much appreciate the responses

I want to know what sites and blogs have the to rankings overall based on their Domain Authority and Page Authority - Top 500 - 1000 in nation - I want to know which ones are follow and no-follow too -

Does anyone know?  Has anyone run such a report yet?

Thanks for help -

BD

Thanks a lot for requesting clarification - These sites are built on CMS made easy.

One example is:

http://www.affordablestoragelubbock.com  and http://affordablestoragelubbock.com

another is

http://www.aplussuperstorage.com and http://aplussuperstorage.com

I can give you like five others, but it is pretty much the same issue

many many thanks for what you can offer

and I am not sure whether or not I have access to the htaccess file - why?

because I am a dumbbell who cannot be trusted with much more than an x-box controller
