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.

We're looking at providing SEO for a website that has the majority of its incoming links from websites created solely to provide links. Few have bad spam rankings. How worried should I be about those links?
The majority of incoming links to a prospect's website are from website pages apparently created solely to provide links to the website. Few have high spam scores. The sites linking to the main site have versions of blogs with linked text. They seem to be providing positive SEO value now, but I'm concerned they might get noticed and hurt the main site in the future.

Why am I getting links in my link report from sites that no longer exist?
So, I have a link report from Link Detox. And I'm going through all of them and considering what sites need to be removed. and trying to find emails and contact webmasters. There is just one odd thing i'm starting to see more of. A lot of links are on websites or webpages that no longer exist. The link no longer exists. Some of the domains are even available for purchase. Why are these links showing on the backlink report and are they really harming my website? Also, do I need to add these links into the disavow document that I will submit to Google?

Bad links or poor content?
Hi all I have a meeting with our seo company tomorrow.... Our sites have dropped considerably for our main keywords. My opinion is that the links that have been built for us have focused on too few anchor text and many "money making" keywords. Also to deep pages rather than the home page. They are saying it's poor content (I guess they would). We copyscape check all content before putting live. Has anyone any evidence I could present to them to back up my argument?

Can I Boost Ranking Linking off Pages internallly?
My domain authority is relatively low, but my right now my homepage seems to have the highest rank. If I place a few internal page links on my homepage, would this boost ranking on internal pages? Or would it pull juice away from my homepage? Using the Seomoz OSE I see alot of my competitors using this type of strategy linking internally. Also would using breadcrumb links benefit me in anyway? Thanks very much!

Open Site Explorer - Finding 404s from my competitor's external linking Root Domains
I want to find websites that have linked 404s to my competitors. My goal is to contact webmasters who have linked to my competitors with 404s, but I cannot figure out how to get Open Site Explorer to give me that data. I can easily see this in GWT for my own site, but I need this for my competition instead. Does anybody know a quick way to get this information?
