    Hi,

    Very new to this and appreciate your time to read and answer my question.

    What's Angela/Paul link profile? and what should I look out for if someone is offering to provide this type of link building to me?

      I'm with you...

      If it's about branding then it's no use using SEO Link Vine.

      However, if its just about links? then maybe SEO Link Vine can be considered, but with the questions you thrown about content that reads "think before you beverage"ra ra ra..., then SEO Link Vine couldn't be of a big help.

        Their site talks about how they rely on content spinners. My question to you:

        In three months, do you want to go to the trouble of tracking down sites linking to you with content that reads "think before you beverage" and "thank my deity" and ask them to remove the links?

        There is no free lunch. There is no free content or endless quality free links. It's your choice, but I'd rather not have links than be a part of that network. I care too much about the reputation of my brand online to have stuff like that pointing to me.

          Yes, thats the downside of SEO Link Vine. They helped my keywords rank on first page but nevertheless, I was also worried about their automation service.

            SEO Link Vine looks like a blog link network similar to Build My Rank.

            They advertise "How to get hundreds of thousands of high quality one-way links, taking your Google ranking from wherever it currently is, straight to page 1 over time."

            And talk a lot about automation... free content.. etc. Install a piece of code and you're done.

            Doesn't seem like something Google would recommend.

              I am not sure if Angela Paul LInks today will still do any good for keyword SERP. I've tried them once way back 2010 but I bet the links really dont give any value, well they give value but not that much. Few are even just spam links.

              Yes, it offered on Warrior Forum, someone name Tom Brite offer a package and will give you a hint on how to get angel paul links.

              But i recommend SeoLinkVine instead.

                Around SEOmoz, some of those types of link building tactics might get you the same type of response that a sales rep for Omaha Steaks might get at a vegan supermarket. 🙂

                To think some people ask me why I spend so much time in the Q&A. I just need to bookmark Keri's response and that about says it all!

                  If you're looking on forums for opinions, you'll likely find that the opinions vary depending on the forum and the type of people that frequent each forum. I don't use Warrior Forum myself, but the people that go to that forum generally have a different viewpoint than the people who go to the SEOmoz forum. Around SEOmoz, some of those types of link building tactics might get you the same type of response that a sales rep for Omaha Steaks might get at a vegan supermarket. 🙂

                    Thanks Keri, I've reading a bit about and getting confusing messages. Some swear by its effectiveness and some say that it passes on a lot of spammy links.

                    I guess what I need is to read a lot more and keep asking questions from experts like you.

                    Cheers

                      If you search for Angela Paul backlinks you'll find info about a backlink building service. It's not usually of the type often recommended on the SEOmoz forums, but a search will tell you a little more about it.

                      Given that you're new to everything, I'd suggest reading through the Beginner's Guide to SEO at http://www.seomoz.org/beginners-guide-to-seo, especially the sections on links, and read blog posts here as well. It'll help give you an idea of what works and what are cheap shortcuts that may bite you.

                          I would urge extreme caution at having anyone else "build" links to your site. Many sites have been penalized for manipulative links. I suspect more sites will be penalized in the future.

                          I suspect "Angela paul" is either a misspelling or misunderstood phrase. There are many companies offering cheap link building services out of India, the Phillipines and other countries. Most of those services run in violation of search engine standards and you run a strong risk of being penalized.

                            Ok, someone offered to do some link building for me and when I asked how you would get the links, his answer was, "Angela paul type profile link and social bookmarking work".

                              Can you share any context for your question? It does not make any sense on its own.

                                Unsolved Are links from staff profile pages no longer good for SEO?

                                link building whitehat

                                Hey there, We run a small site that lists lawyers and we have an opportunity to ask the lawyers to display a 'badge' on their own website's staff page, linked back to the page on our site that they are listed on. Initially I thought this would be good link building (i.e. the lawyer's own staff/profile pages on their website linking to our site where they are listed = a highly relevant link). I was less concerned about the authority of the law firm's sites, though these will range from sometimes low-ish to medium. I just assumed that Google would see the value in the lawyer wanting to link to our site where they are listed. However, our SEO has said that these days Google doesn't give much/any value to these types of links from individual staff pages. His advice was to try and get the badge added to one of their service pages (or their About page) which will be unlikely as the badge is person-specific. I thought I'd ask if this was everyone else's experience regarding Google not valuing links from individual staff pages? Thanks for you help 🙂

                                Is 100 total links for every linking domain too high? I suppose I could also look at ratios of sites that are doing well in the rankings.

                                I'm starting to learn about link juice and notice in GWMT > Traffic > Internal Links, that the list is in this order by the links counted on each page. Some are in the footer and some are in the header, with some being more important than others commercially i.e. /register /privacy /terms /search /sitemap /disclaimer /blog /register So I am wondering if I should add a 'no-follow' attribute to the footer links i.e. privacy, terms, disclaimer and leave the others as they are? Does this help retain link juice on each page where the links appear? Or am I missing the point all together? This is my website: http://goo.gl/CN0e5

                                Is it ok for a web design company to have a branded footer link on their client's sites?

                                Now I know that in general footer links to your site from another site are bad...this is because they are very often spammy...however I like to think that Google is pretty smart and I am of the opinion that a web design company should be able to link back to their own site. Here's why: If a visitor comes across a site that they love the design of, and they want a new website built...why shouldn't they be able to click through to the web designers site? (as long as the client is happy to link to it of course) I also feel that if there are a whole bunch of high authority/pagerank websites have been designed by a web design company and they therefore have a footer link pointing to them, it's probably a pretty good sign that they're a good web designer. Is it not? In saying this I think that the link anchor text should be branded rather than keywords. For example I usually write "Web Design by Static Shift" I'm interested to hear people's thoughts. Am I being blinded by my bias? Thoughts aside, and onto the facts...what are people's experiences with footer links for a web design company. Do they help or hinder?

                                I would like to start a link building initiative at my company for a new website, and would like to know if the value of the links built using Submiteaze would be worth the money.
