Blog commenting still ok for 2013?
-
im trying to rank for some keywords but more importantly increase my Domain Authority its only a 15 and my Page Authority is 28 I need to increase those what would be a good way to start doing that. I do rank well for some keywords just not all
Any ideas to help me build links and become a more relevant source. We have TONS of content compared to our competitors
site name is www.greensidelawncare.com
-
I agree. The text is too over-optimized. It might scare customers aware because it is not so natural sounding.
-
and become a more relevant source
I think that you have optimized your pages beyond the point of relevance.
"Greenside Lawncare offers the following services: St. Charles Lawn Care, St. Peters Lawn Care, O’Fallon Lawn Care, Lake St. Louis Lawn Care, Wentzville Lawn Care, Chesterfield Lawn Care, and Maryland Heights Lawn Care."
If you rewrite in natural language your rankings might go up and your visitors might respond better to your website.
They know you are in the lawn care biz.

I'd say blog commenting is still ok, so long as you don't try to stuff your link and target anchor text in every comment possible. You should mix it up and try to start a conversation, and then maybe in your second reply, drop a link to your site.
Many blog comments are NoFollow anyways, so they won't pass much or any SEO juice along to your site. It might, however, attract visitors to you site.

Still worth it to get listed on "resources" pages
Hello,
Link Building | | imcolej
I'm a new moz user who handles the online marketing for www.griefrecoverymethod.com. We provide grief support groups and 1-1 work as well as professional training for caregivers. We are on some websites as a grief resource, but not as many as I think we can be on. We have never attempted to reach out on a large scale to get added to sites. Is this type of link building worth a large campaign for us? Or has the ship sailed on link building with resource pages. I'm fairly new to all of this so any guidance at all would be appreciated. Thanks!0 -

Guest Blogging - Build a relationship with a few blogs and post only there or post a few on as many good blogs as possible?
I'm curious which strategy is better in the short term and in the long-term? Part of my link building strategy involves contacting bloggers and posting some guest blogs on their sites. Now there are advantages with posting on a few blogs and creating a link between you and the blog readers and the blog owner. It also saves time trying to contact blog owners etc. However would my time be better spent contacting hundreds of blogs and seeing where I can guest blog and then post on as many as possible; in order to have a diverse number of links going back to my website? What do you think is the best option and why?

Multiple blogs for one site
Hello, one of my competitors built all these blogs and pointed them to their main site.. Is this white hat? http://steelbuildingsblog.org/ PR3 http://metal-church-buildings.net/ PR2 http://commercial-metal-buildings.org/ PR2 http://metalandsteelbuildings.net/ PR1 http://steel-storage-buildings.org/ PR2 http://texas-steel-buildings.net/ PR2 http://steel-metal-buildings.org/ PR3 http://metal-buildingstore.com/ PR2 http://metalagriculturalbuildings.net/ PR3 Also I am looking at my links vs. theirs and they have a much higher point score for links... But the company I am doing SEO for has most of same quality links. Can this be the reason they have an edge?
