Welcome to the Q&A Forum

There are a lot of them: PRWeb, PRnewswire, i-newswire, PRLeap.

And as mentioned earlier, Google does not give a lot of importance of links from Press Release sites, but if you have a good story you can use the PR sites to tell it.

I use the latest version of Chrome. I tried to reproduce but without success. I see this issue couple times a day (maybe once a day).

I'll try to reproduce it.

Hi David,

I was talking about this error

moz.jpg

There are still some bugs in a new Moz:

1. I can still find a lot of mentions of "SEOMoz", for example: in a footer, in a Q/A form (SEOMoz Resources), in a new question form (SEOmoz PRO Application, SEOmoz Tools, etc.)
2. On a main form (http://moz.com/pro/home) sometimes my full name is not visible at all, sometimes my MozPoints are hidden (on a left top corner);
3. There is not direct link from http://devblog.moz.com/ to a main website;

Regards.

With a PR3 and Domain Authority - 32, this website will not give you any SEO benefit.

If you need a good Press Release site other than PRWeb, you should try:

• http://www.prnewswire.com/
• http://www.i-newswire.com/
• http://www.prleap.com/

When one good web-site (PR5) has a link to my web-site - it's great. But, if this site has a second link to my web-site from another page, is this also good? Or, let me ask in a different way, will my web-site get "double benefit" from that web-site?

I see that Page Authority is really very important signal, but is it more valuable for Google too than PR?

A web-site has PR5 but in OSE I see that Domain Authority is only 26.

I've also checked and the domain was registered in 2009.

Is this normal?

MyGuestBlog is a good service, but you should check every offer carefully and accept only good ones (PR4+ websites)

You can view Moz's 2011 Search Engine Ranking Factors, there is a proof that a domain that starts with a target keyword has more power than other sites. And, keywords which appears in the subdomain name, also boosts rank.

But keep in mind that the keyword should be relevant and the website should be a quality site.

It's a content syndication service, it automatically distributes your links to a lot of different social bookmarking sites.

I think, you should avoid this kind of services.

Short answer is no.

You should distribute a press release only when you really have to say something important. Moreover, you will have a better chance when your content is customized.

Also, I don't think that submitting it to many PR sites is a good idea. You can choose one of the top press release distribution sites, for example PRWeb, PRnewswire and submit your PR no more than once in a month.

And of course, there is a great blog post: http://www.seomoz.org/blog/are-you-wasting-budget-with-online-press-release-distribution-14595

I just remembered that when I got 50 mozPoints I had to receive a hug from Roger.

So, I need my hug!

There are really few article submission websites which are useful. Some good ones are: EzineArticles, GoArticles, ArticleCity, SooperArticles

Keep in mind, that some of them does not allow to put links in the article, some of them add "nofollow" to your links, some allow to insert no more than 1-2 links in the article body etc.

Some of them require to post unique articles, for example Sooperarticles.com

Value of these web-sites might be that you will have some high PR backlinks and additional traffic source, if your articles are really useful.

You should definitely contact to the visual.ly team via http://visual.ly/contact form and report the "terms of use violation". I believe they will respond quickly.

As you mentioned, Google does not allows such reciprocal links.

I think, you should avoid making this kind of deals, i.e. ignore them.

ahrefs.com can show it to you

You should (definitely) not delete the current account. Why loose all that fans?

Maybe you should consider to change name like "New Name (Formerly Old Name)" and after some time, maybe after a couple of month, remove old name.

There is an interesting article on SEW that Google is going to update Penguin to the next major version - http://bit.ly/15Vkr6O

So what do you think, what should we expect? And also, is there available updated webmaster guidelines?
