Hi,

Is there any ratio between dofollow and nofollow back-links of a website? Do a website really need some nofollow back-links?

Thanks

Hi All,

I noticed that our website has lot of 403 errors across different pages using the tool http://www.deadlinkchecker.com/. Do these errors hurt website rankings?

Thanks

Hi All,

We want to change some of the linking structure on our website. I think we are repeating some non-important pages at footer menu. So I want to move them as second hierarchy level pages and bring some important pages at footer menu. But I have confusion which pages will get more influence: Top menu or bottom menu or normal pages? What is the best place to link non-important pages; so the link juice will not get diluted by passing through these. And what is the right place for "keyword-pages" which must influence our rankings for such keywords? Again one thing to notice here is we cannot highlight pages which are created in keyword perspective in top menu.

Thanks

Thanks for the response.

We have 6 sub-domains like blog, etc. Our blog is a sub-domain but configured as example.com/blog (wordpress). Others are left as same. sub-domain.com, etc. We have thousands of visits on these sub-domains with hundreds and thousands of pages. So, we are not sure whether these will be treated as individual websites by Google or all together as same website. If they treat as individual website, will there be any link juice passing from and to domain and sub-domains? And my doubt is, what's the best way to link these sub-domains from our domain. I have gone through some posts saying too many links from sub-domain to domain may turn as spam for Google.

What's the best optimised linking between sub-domains and domains? And every time we'll give website link at top with logo...do we need to link sub-domain also with all it's pages?

If example.com is domain and example.com/blog is sub-domain or sub-folder...

1. Do we need to link to example.com from /blog?

2. Do we need to give /blog link in all pages of /blog?

3. Is there any difference in connecting domains with sub-domains and sub-folders?

Hi Furtak,

Thanks for the response. Keyword you mentioned must be in anchor text or URL? We have keyword in URL but not anchor text.

And...how about linking this 2nd tier page internally from many number of possible links; so that it'll show-up in Google naturally? One of our most internally linked page is showing up in Google which we wanna replace with this new page

Thanks,

Hi Dirk,

You got it right. All the pages we redirected were pointing to similar pages once, so probably they should be okay as u said.

Regarding disavow; what are the metrics to decide on a link? Some links might be good looking with decent DA and might be hurting us. What's the best way to findout actual back-links dropping us down. Disavow comes with risk as there are chances we may reject good links, so it's better to make sure about the links.

Thanks,

Satish
