    Need to give our web partners our booking form which must be loaded in an iframe calling back to our domain. Is it possible to pass any link juice from their domain loading our iframe back to us.

    Was thinking of a "Powered by" text link in the form footer, but I'm guessing the link needs to be outside the iframe.

    Would love to hear any thoughts or workarounds on this.

        You can totally get some juice! Just not through the iframe code. Example:

        <iframe><br />blah blah code booking blah code<br /></iframe>
        booking provided by cool dude, craig spencer

        Just give that code to your partners. Some will remove the link, but other will leave it. How do you think AddThis got to be a PR10?

          Tks Roger,

          I'm not a developer so sorry if this sounds stupid but instead of using an iframe, is it possible to push the booking form via a widget or api of some sort that allows the form and link to be followed by bots.

            Nope. iFrame is a link juice free zone.

              Thanks for the reply Aaron but I'd prefer not to allow our partners access to modify the link if possible.

                You're correct in thinking no link juice can be passed through an iframe. You could however have a link immediately before or after it in the method you mentioned, and then give your partners the whole HTML including that link.

                Hope that helps!

                  When conducting a link building strategy does it matter the country the link is from?

                  We are a UK business and if we have links mostly from US based blogs and websites does this penalise us.  The links are from relevant websites and topics.  Should we be focusing on .co.uk sites

                  Back link from site with DA of 72 to a website domain. Clicking on the link redirects to our website not the attended one.

                  Hi,
                  I've ran a back link check and discovered a good back link to a site which then gets redirected back to my company's website. I have a feeling that an old SEO agency has purchased a small website which has a decent link back from a relevant organisation with a high Domain authority and then redirects the domain to our website to get the link juice. What are your thought on this? Is this really bad practise and possibly damaging? Thanks, Jim

                  Do footer links pass less link juice?

                  One of my best inbound links for PA and DA happens to be a footer link, curious if it's less valuable or has any value at all.

                  Do links behind paywalls pass value?

                  Hi - we are about to have a product review go live on a site that uses a paywall. Will the link from this still pass SEO value to our site, and should we therefore optimise it? Thanks

                  Does the ratio of external nofollow links to external "do follow" links matter in terms of SERPs ranking?

                  My site has an external link nofollow:dofollow ratio of approximately 1:1 That is, there are about as many nofollow external links as "do follow" external links. I have an impression that the ratio of no-follow to "do follow" links is a factor in the way that our website shows up in SERPs. I have the impression from reading a variety of sources, and from looking at Seomoz, that calculate "trust" factors as if they mattered (in SERPs), that seem to value a relatively low nofollow:dofollow ratio. Am I correct about that? Thanks,
                  Tim PS - I don't know whether or not this matters, but our website is at: www.trustworthycare.com - Tim

                  How many links per week is too fast in link building?

                  For a new website/blog how many links per week looks suspicious or hurt the rankings?

                  Can indirect linking be valuable?

                  I have a client who is using a SEO company (Hubshout, delete name if necessary) to boost traffic to their website. They are doing this by publishing articles and submitting them to article directories, then they use their own sites/blogs (which are valueless, PR and MozRank of zero) to point to these articles and they say that this helps boost there rankings. How? They are not linking to the clients websites, creating artificial links from their own websites to article directories instead of the clients website. Are they trying to boost the value of the article or trying to boost their own websites? How does this help out the client? It is similar to three way linking but is not.

                  I currently have a Wordpress blog set up on a subdomain i.e blog@ etc.  I wanted to know whether the links from the blog to my main site carry any value.
