Why aren't my backlinks showing up?
-
I've recently switched hosting my site on www.vamospaella.com to www.vamospaella.co.uk (using a 301 redirect) and I've been building backlinks. According to Majesticseo, vamospaella.co.uk has 38 backlinks with 8 referrring domains and vamospaella.com has 15 external backlinks from 11 referring domains. Some of these backlinks date back a month, while others have shown up in the last week. However, I have seen no improvement in my Google rankings for my keywords. Why is this?

First off, be patient. It generally takes time for links to really give benefit. I've been aggressively building links to a few select pages over the last couple of months, and it's just now that I'm really starting to see quantifiable improvement.
Second, Moosa's advice on link quality, particularly blogging, is really valid. Upgrade the content on your site. You currently have a separate blog on wordpress.com? Bring that in house immediately. Start blogging on your own site so that you get maximum benefit out of any links you earn. Start guest blogging where possible.
Third: your links to the .com URL will pass most of the credit to .co.uk due to the 301 redirect, but they won't pass all of it. See if it's possible to point those old links directly to your new .co.uk domain for maximum juice.
Link building is by far the most labor-intensive aspect of SEO. Hang in there.

Ok, the major question is that when you are building back links:
- Why Majestic SEO is not showing it?
- Why there is no improvement is Rankings?
There is a difference between you building links and links go live as most of the links building opportunities does contain a moderation time period! (Manual links have no average time period while directories and articles and blogs do have a time period of maximum 2 weeks!)
So may be your inks are in the moderation because Majestic can only index the links that are live!
Well, as far as ranking is concern.. it depends upon various factors and not links only! I just take a quick look to your website and here are some tips that you can use to improve your visibility!
- Try to reduce the internal linking, they way you use it, aren’t natural and look quite spammy to search engines.
- Try to add quality contain on your website.
- Don’t push too much on directory links and try to grab links through blogging and through manual outreach
- Include your business to local websites
- Try adding a blog in the 2 phase on the website.
If you will try these, you will see a positive effect in rankings but again it also depends upon what keywords are you targeting… with the link profile that you currently have its almost seems impossible for you to rank for general keywords and phrases!

Backlinks vs multiple domains
Hello, Our main website is setup on a .com domain and a .ca is setup as a 301 Permanent redirection to the .com. We just signed up to Majestic and found that we had a bunch of backlink linking to the .ca instead of the .com. My question is, is the SEO juice (for DA) being passed by from the .ca to the .com or I should start contacting those websites to get the backlink changed to .com? Thanks

Do Testimonials with backlinks work?
I looked up that testimonials for like, some of our providers, with a backlink back to us, is a legitimate backlink. The thing is they are a provider, not necessarily in the same industry as us. Do testimonial backlinks work?

Backlink reports in OSE, the good and the bad!
Hi all Mozers, I have a couple of questions re the backlink reports in Open Site Explorer. In the introductory video Rand suggests that you can indentify backlinks that are a) Having a positive effect, and b) Having a negative effect on SEO campaigns. Do you identify such links using the domain/page authority of the linking page? Also, we know we have more links than OSE is reporting, does this mean that the links that are not reported are not helping our SEO campaign? Many thanks in advance, much appreciated. Lee

Quick Wins and 'Low Hanging Fruit' - how do I identify them?
Hello, I have fairly recently taken up a position as an in-house SEO, having previously had my own (not terribly successful) ecommerce venture, so my SEO experience is at beginner level. I have read a LOT in coming up with a strategy (Laura Lippay's 8 Step Strategy, amongst so much more on here, has been epic), and have come up with something fairly comprehensive. However, it's taken me months! This is partyly due to other non-SEO responsibilities, and partly due to finding my way around all the tools & resources available, how everything fits together and what should be prioritised over what. This is massively inefficient for future projects, or indeed if I ever got a job in agency, and so I need to get quicker/more productive. I keep reading about identifying and capitalising on 'low hanging fruit' - how does one go about this? Details would be hugely appreciated - starting from the bottom up, i.e. keyword research, competitive & backlink analysis, link building etc. For the record, I have zero coding capabilities (something I plan to rectify one day soon) and so my strategy revolves primarily around content and outreach, rather changing site architecture. In any case, our website seems well put together, since new content is indexed very quickly. Thanks so much in advance, Ali (UK)
