Site not responding well to Link Building
-
I worked on around 15 EMDs and all of them have similar template but different content. They are all two KW EMDs.
Now I did KW research and changed Title tags and Did around 10- 15 links for them in and they all reacted very well to link building except one site.
I did the link building for this site in 3 batches- 7 links in first 10 days, then another 7 in next 10 days and another 7 links after 7 days.
Site's ranking decreased with each link building.
Then I removed the low quality links recently. Now What do you guys suggest should I again do link building?? (though everytime I did link building site lost rankings as mentioned earlier)
or
WHAT IS THE NEXT STRATEGY AFTER REMOVING BAD LINKS? START LINKING AGAIN, WAIT FOR SOMETIME ?
-
yeah you're right. I take good care of quality link building normally but in this particular case, I was experimenting a bit (some of the other similar sites reacted well to same links) but this one didn't.

I think George’s question is still valid what kind of link building are you performing... i mean if you are up to forum profile links, directories, blog comments then it is fairly possible but if you are really up to quality link building then this is not a normal scenario and should be analyzed properly...
-
nope I am not using KWs for link building. I know it should be a good mix of KWs, brand name, URL and general words.
Also I made some directory submissions links but like I said I removed them now recently.

What kind of link building are you doing? Good links shouldn't be the cause of decreased rankings. Also, are you using exact match keyword phrases in your links? This can contribute to lower rankings if all your links are exact match keywords (even if your domain name is an EMD).
If you are just buying links, my suggestion is to stop. If you need some suggestions for good ways to build links I say start here with a post from Jon Cooper: http://pointblankseo.com/link-building-strategies.

Link Building for extremely niche industry
I understand that when getting links into your site, they need to be good authority but, importantly, also relevant to the information on your own website. I've seen examples for people to find guest posting opportunities on many sites, but these have been for popular industries with mass amounts of people discussing it (travel blogs, fashion blogs), making guest post opportunities more readily available. The company I work for provide doc storage, scanning and paperless solutions. As you can guess, when following these guides to find blogs on our industry, I have come up short with places to ask to guest post on! So, how would SEOmozzers approach building quality, relevant links for a very niche industry such as ours? Also, we'll be building pages for extremely specific types of files (e.g. Microfiche Scanning, A0 Scanning....). For these pages, how will I be able to find relevant pages on these topics to get a link to, because these will obviously be even more niche than doc scanning? Thank you!

Link building for a product review site
I'm doing SEO for a product review website, and I'm curious what link building opportunities are best for this category. Assume only the following: The website is basically a blog Most of the articles are reviews on cosmetic products, though there are also articles regarding news, product roundups, tips&tricks and similar content The website is in a local, non-english language Disregarding low-value opportunities such as directories, what kind of websites should I aim for outreach purposes? So far, I'm thinking the following: Product manufacturers (very low success chance, as the review site is fairly new and in a localized language) E-commerce sites selling the products (average to low success chance, since a lot of them use CMSes that might not allow integration of a review) Other cosmetic blogs, particularly for guest blogging (average to low success chance, since the website is fairly new) Any ideas would be appreciated, thanks!
