Publish content on current domain for content boost or new domain for links?
-
I have about 1000 unique and organically generated articles. My quote compare business has had briefs submitted by clients for over two years. The content has only been accessible to registered members. I want to polish it ASAP. Is it better to publish the content on the existing website in a sub folder or set up a new website to publish the content and have every article link back to the main website? Content is around 300 words x 1000.

I am with Moosa, placing it on another site just for links isn't a good idea. But this isn't content that will get links as it is.
These aren't really articles, but rather requests for services. I am not sure how much traffic this content will bring you but if you want to open it up, I'd still recommend keeping it on one site.

Ok, from the external website what I thought is a one domain contain all the content but if you have multiple domains on different servers or at least different C class IPs then you will be able to get multiple links.
From your words I guess it will be better host it on external website but make sure that websites should be on different servers or contain different C class IPs

So the service is for businesses to submit a brief to request quotes on design projects. The content is their briefs. The content isn't particularly interesting. Some are short some are long. The only value it has is that designers who find it searching around on Google will come and sign up to us so they can supply quotes.
When I look at competitors in other countries, they have lots of related websites publishing this content and linking back to the main website.
If the content were published on a different website and each page linked to the main website, is it still only counted as one link from the domain?

If you have 1000 unique and worth reading articles instead of just words filling the paper then the advice is to add them slowly on your website (may be by adding a blog section on your website). If you content really contains value and if your content can really help users then you can get tons of link from different root domains to get SERP benefits (obviously you have to push it to the targeted audience).
Adding it on a separate domain will help your main website get a link from 1 external domain and if you content really is helpful, adding a content n the home page will help you get more links from different root domains.

Missing Inbound Linking Domains
For some reason, our websites seem to be missing a number of authoritative inbound linking domains which seems to be a primary driver in lowering our domain authority as compared to our competition. Does anyone have any feedback as to why this might not be populating or is there something additional we need to do to have these show up? If it doesn't show up in MOZ is it likely that Google might also not be seeing these as inbound link domains? Thanks as always MOZ Community!

Any benefits to having Wikipedia links now they are 'no-followed' (apart from traffic and natural link prof.)
I see that Wikipedia outbound links are all no-followed, is there any benefit (aside from the traffic) for having links here now ? For example is their co-citation and co-occurance benefits. I know there is without the links since from seeing previous Moz content about this saying Google getting good at connecting brand/s and topic mentions on a page (without any links) so appreciate Wikipedia is still good for that sort of thing. And a no-followed link is obviously good for the potential traffic. But is there any additional SEO benefit to having a no followed link on a wikipedia entry/stub too ? (aside from its contribution to your no-followed links which in turn contribute to a natural looking link profile) Cheers Dan

Do sites on the same c-block and same server count as seperate linking root domains when linking to each other?
Lets say there are 50 businesses who have their website on the same server and are on the same c-block but the owners of the individual sites are different (i.e. they are all completely different sites not relevant to each other). Each of those sites are linking to each other due to a feature on the sites. This obviously increases the number of total links to each site but does it also increase the number of linking root domains? Or does this just show up as one linking root domain due to all of them being on the same server and the sharing the same c-block?

Do you link out to good content?
I have noticed that there are a bunch of questions in the Q&A about people are concerned about allowing blog post comments or linking out in general. My question is: do you avoid linking out to other websites, even though they have good content? I am not talking about direct competitors here, but just linking to other websites in general.
