Link Building for a website with 170 K Pages
-
My website is having around 170 K webpages and every web page is meant for individual keyword. e.g. keyword for every page is height of a movie star.
What should be my link building strategy
-
Should I link other sites to index page of my website (if yes then what should be the anchor text) ?
-
Should I link other websites to individual web pages of my website.

What is a brand anchor text?

Hi, I would first look at your internal link structure of the website to make sure you have the best appropriate pages linking to specific keywords. You would want to target the most competitive terms via this.
Once this is complete I would then move onto high quality link building for the website as said above I would then focus on utilizing varied anchor text and brand terms.

I had a similar ish issue with an ecommerce store of my own. It has 90,000 products on and I was spending far too long targeting individual product names. It proved to be a false economy to me; while it was good to rank no1 for the actual product name, the number of people who search Google for exact product names was tiny. As A result I have now dropped this approach and I'm targeting more generic keywords such as 'black dress' 'red tights'
Try and target a few dozen broader keywords which bring in many more searches. If you build up your domain authority enough then the individual pages will rank of their own accord (depending on your site quality and the competition, of course)
-
If you are starting out, I would use brand anchor text to my homepage and build up domain authority first
I would not use exact match anchor text tod epe pages in my site from spammy domains (anything less than PR2, DA less than 30 or having less than 100 unique domains linking to it)

Link building - unique root domains
Hi there, I was wondering when asking for a link, does where on this page it is? For example will someone's high traffic website (e.g. example.com ) provide more page authority than another link on this site ( e.g. example.com/blog ). If this is the case, is it best to get links from multiple pages if possible or will this not effect SEO? Thanks

Link building with PDFs
I created a manual for a popular piece of equipment and placed it, as a PDF-file, on my website. The PDF contains a clickable link to the root domain of my website. Other websites have downloaded the PDF and put it on their own website, hosting it themselves. Since Google indexes PDFs, does the link in the PDF count as a regular 'link' from an external website, and does it have comparable value? Can't find any thoughts or studies about this anywhere.

Root or Inner page for Links?
Hi everyone, I am starting my link building campaign after parting with many an SEO company. I have been able to establish some links which I have used my targeted keywords as anchor text. I have also linked these to the relevant product pages on my site. I am now however, wondering if I should have link them just to my main domain name? My site only has a rank of 21 so I just wondered if I should at the start be building keyword links to the main domain? I am also building branded links to the main domain as well as doing keyword linking too. Thanks Michelle

How fast is too fast when it comes to link building?
I'm getting ready to start a massive link building campaign. I plan on using a variety of anchor texts, getting links from a variety of sources, and only getting high quality links from relevant sites. My main concern is getting penalized for gaining too many links too quickly. Does anyone have any advice on how fast is too fast? Or how much is too much in a certain amount of time? Thanks!

Link building by inviting bloggers
Hi everyone, I'm relatively new to SEO, and I have a question on a link building strategy for a holiday resort I am working on. The resort has a paintball arena and zorbing facilities at their premises. I want to use this in the link building strategy and the owners have agreed to have an open day for bloggers. Basically the resort will invite 20 local bloggers for a day to their resort. They get to play paintball, zorbing and get to see the resort in exchange for an honest write up about their day at the resort. I am looking at asking the bloggers to write about the event twice (Once before, and once after they visit the resort) with a minimum of 4 links to the website. I want to know how I can identify the top bloggers? What factors should I consider while making a list of 20 bloggers, and how do I measure these factors? Also, is this a good strategy for link building? And please feel free to add anything else you think I am missing out on, or will help in the link building. Cheers! Arjun
