Blog Networks
-
We have found a couple of blogs that would be good for some unique content but I suspect they may be part of a network. Apart from checking the IP and for duplicate content of them both, are there any other signs that they may be part of a network?

This question is probably best to ask in its own question, rather than appending on to this one (as it's about a year old). If you can add some more context, that'd be really helpful. Thanks!

Thanks for clarifying, what are signs of common foot print. Ones that help me determine if that is what the SEO company is doing in order to guarantee high ranking. My client doesn't know anything about SEO tactics. Are there blog networks that are considered white hat or are they all black hat?
-
These sites don't diagnose if it's a blog network, they just show you sites that have common footprints.

Thanks Keri, how long does it to determine if this site is tied to a blog network. The SEO company working on it for a dentist I work with just posted it two weeks or so ago. mydentistapplevalley.com

I tried Reverse Internet mentioned above. Do I need to be logged in. The site I'm checking on was posted live two weeks ago. Will it take some time to be read?
-
spyonweb.com will also look for the same Google Adsense and Google Analytics codes/accounts across sites.

Cheers guys, much appreciated

If you use Reverse Internet: http://reverseinternet.com/, you will be able to see any shared Google adsense or affiliate IDs as well. If this is the case, it's probably a network.
If they haven't hidden the details, you could also try looking at the whois data with Domain Tools: http://www.domaintools.com/

most obvious thing is that they tend to link to one another heavily. use open site explorer to check the major links going through and see if one domain points to the others you are thinking about and then check the others.
also check their code and see if they are doing anything funny, like cloaking information - another common blog entwork trick

Dead/Broken links on old blogs
Hi We are currently trying to update our blog page on our website but quickly realized there are numerous dead or broken 404 links after clicking on anchor text from past blog posts. Our blog is set up in WordPress and we recently installed an SEO plug in with it. Some of these anchor texts don't actually need links and I want to unlink them, is there a simple way to do this on WordPress? Other anchor text I would like to "301 redirect" to another page. Can i do this on WordPress or is this something my SEO plugin should be able to fix? Answers are much appreciated! Thanks

Has anyone used Fat Joe as an outsource solution for blog links?
Hi guys, I have seen a company on social media a lot recently who offer a guest blog posting service. It seems to be reasonable quality from the reviews and the blurb they give as they at least seem to find you a relevant blogger to match up with, actually write good content with as many reviews as is needed and then post it to just that one page. I noticed on their site they have claimed that their service is Loved by Moz but I couldn't find any reference to them anywhere on the Moz site. My question is - has anyone used them and are the links going to be any good for my site?

Creating your own blog for back linking to your site
Our competitor seems to be linked to a blog that they have created themselves. From an SEO perspective is it worthwhile creating a blog that is related to your particular industry and then only including links back to your site. Also is there any way to upload ,articles etc automatically to the blog to cut down on the people hours involved in updating content?

Linkbuilding TO Your Guest Blog Post?
Hypothetical situation: You write a guest blog post for a popular blog about your niche topic. The post is a hit and sends you visitors, leads, and social media followers. Would you consider running a linkbuilding campaign to the blog post in order to help it rank better for its target keyword(s), given that the post has proven to convert successfully, despite the fact that the post is on a domain other than your own?
