Hi there,
Factual doesn’t have an “add your business” feature. To get your listing added, you email them and they’ll create a listing for you.
Before emailing them, I’d suggest first checking closely to see if you’re already listed by searching here: http://www.factual.com/data/t/places. If you are listed, you can login and additional details to the listing – look for the little “edit” tag on the right side of the map. It’s cool how they show you the sources of the listing data under the “Crosswalk” section.
If you’re not listed, look at all the other listings to see what fields they accept and make sure you include all the applicable fields when you email them.
When you’re sure you’re not already listed, and you have gathered all the information needed for your listing, email them at datacontributions@factual.com to request adding your business to their database.
There is a excellent post that explains everything that you need www.localvisibilitysystem.com/2013/09/24/how-to-add-your-business-to-factual/
Hope it helps you.

Hi there,
Moz doesn't provide historical info of metrics like DA or PA.
Many SEO's use Searchmetrics visibility tool. But this tool only provides a rough estimate of a domains visibility in search results over time, it's proved valuable in detecting penalties and changes in search volumne for sites over time, although it works best with large sites.
Majestic SEO also provides historical link history. Access is limited with a free account, but paid accounts are generally reasonable.
Hope it helps you.

Hi there,
Alexa is very inaccurate. For the top 50k site in the world its it can be in the right ball park, But for you average Kononen its way off. Just by installing Alexa toolbar yourself and visiting your own site can make you site jump by 10ks in the rankings.
Semrush would be a better alternative, but ultimately your own analytics and a good rank checking software is a far better way to measure your sites growth.
Hope it helps you.
There is no absolute truth, you have to see what example works better for each case.
Yes, i think starting with a research on targeted businesses/clubs will be the best idea, then you can try to apply some of these cases.
I let you my bible:
Call them - Get them on the phone. Make them hear your voice and know that you're a real person. I did it with some clients and i got great results.
Sometimes a good comment on a blog that makes a difference can help you build the relationship you want.
Interviews-Normally companies like to be interviewed, so take the advantage of this and make some. Remember to give them a mention when you gonna share that content on your social networks, they will be happy to share it.
Random acts of kindness - Whenever you can, be nice to people. It might just payoff. Always be on the lookout for helping those in need. These random acts can turn into lasting relationships.
Give a crap - Actually care about people. Show them you're not just a bot with a picture, but that you're somewhat human. If they share on Twitter that their daughter just graduated, congratulate them. Something as simple as that can open up your chances to build a relationship in the future.
Participate - If someone is conducting a survey or testing something, get involved and participate. Those are great chances to start conversations with new people.
Local meetups - Whether you find one or start one, meetups are a fantastic way to get to know people close by.
User group meetings - A great way to get to know people who think like you is by finding those who use the same products or services like you..
Conferences - Seriously, go to them.
G+ Hangouts/Skype - Be the first person to use a Google+ hangout! But seriously, that or Skype is a great way to meet face to face with someone without actually meeting face to face (if that makes any sense!).
Twitter RTs, Responses, & DMs - If you want to get to know someone on Twitter, first retweet them a few times. Then respond a couple times to a few of their tweets, then continue the conversation as direct messages. Finally, ask to email (because 140 characters is never enough), and now you've got the ball rolling.
Answer questions - Answer questions on Twitter, Quora, and anywhere else people hang out. People ask questions all the time. These external opportunities are a great way to put you on their radar.
Note: don’t think of it as a short-term input & short-term output, especially if you’re a marketing agency. More so, realize that these relationships can be tapped into for multiple links (i.e. for different campaigns, clients, etc.), as well as for other marketing opportunities (i.e running a joint-contest).

Hi there,
What I would do would be to start contacting them by facebook, twitter or other social networks. On twitter mentions work very well especially if you have written an article that you talk about them.
Buil relations, not backlinks- Instead of focusing on getting more and more backlinks, try to focus on creating relations.
being proactive in a community – actively commenting and participating in discussions
social media interaction – sharing valuable content and commenting on the topic in social media
creating content – it’s always good to add new value or fresh thoughts to the community
Hope it helps you.

Hi ArthurRadtke,
In theory, a well-coded and optimized HTML site will perform as well as pages from a well-designed CMS site in organic search rankings.
Some of the most important HTML elements to achieve SEO success.
HTML title tag: They have always been and remain the most important HTML signal that search engines use to understand what a page is about. Bad titles on your pages are like having bad book titles.
Meta Description tag: If the HTML title is the equivalent to a book title, the meta description is like the blurb on the back describing the book.
Header tags: Header tags are a formal way to identify key sections of a web page.
Structured Data: The result of structured data often translates into what is called a ‘rich snippet‘
Hope it helps you.

Hi there,
See here - I think Moz Analytics/PRO don't process rel=prev/next properly, so they may give false alarms on those pages, even if the titles are properly implemented.
Cheers
How it works:
After crawling a website with Screaming Frog, export the data into one of the three available file formats (.csv, .xls, or .xlsx).
Copy all of the data from the Screaming Frog worksheet (starting in cell A4) into cell A2 of the ‘data’ sheet of this analysis workbook.
If this data does not align properly, then there is an added or missing column of data which you will need to adjust for in the ‘data’ spreadsheet.
Report tab
The reporting tab is set up to make customizing this report for each website as easy as possible.
Hope it helps you.
Hi there,
When organising your site infrastructure to manage multilingual versions of your site and adapt content for different country targets, there are three main hosting options:
As each has unique pros and cons, the option you choose will depend largely on the size of your organisation, the locations of your likely target market, and of course your budget.
If you choose the best, most practical option, it will complement your other efforts and add up to a whole that boosts your immediate rankings and sets the foundation for a long-term international SEO strategy
We have an exceptional international seo checklist guide in moz that you can see here moz.com/blog/the-international-seo-checklist and if you want to extend this information about the domains will be very useful to read this one http://www.searchenginejournal.com/seo-without-boarders-a-guide-to-international-seo-nick-paterman/60092/

They have grown a lot since October. Can be seen from the growth curve. It seems that some tactics are wearing, if they have cheated we will see in a few months. Otherwise you could use opensiteexplorer.org to copy their strategy and replicate their backlinks.
Hi there,
One of the most important reasons is:
Google Starts Giving A Ranking Boost To Secure HTTPS/SSL Sites
Google has announced that going HTTPS — adding a SSL 2048-bit key certificate on your site — will give you a minor ranking boost.
Google says this gives websites a small ranking benefit, only counting as a “very lightweight signal” within the overall ranking algorithm. In fact, Google said this carries “less weight than other signals such as high-quality content.” Based on their tests, Google says it has an impact on “fewer than 1% of global queries” but said they “may decide to strengthen” the signal because they want to “encourage all website owners to switch from HTTP to HTTPS to keep everyone safe on the web.”

Hey,
I used to have the same problem with some backlinks til i´ve found this script that helps me not to replicate the url from my backlink to all the pages around the site.
If you want to try it. Hope it helps you.

Hi there,
Google provides some clear guidelines to make sure we all know how they want us to manage redirections.
301 – Search Engines: Your page is no longer available, and has permanently moved to a new page. Please remove it from your index and pass credit to the new page.
When to use 301
Canonical – (most) Search Engines: You have multiple versions of this page (or content), only index this version. You will keep the others available for people to see, but don't include them in your index and pass credit to your preferred page.
When to use canonical:
