How many links can i do in a day
-
Hi, I built a niche site yesterday, the domain was 1 week old. What is the safest way to do link building? I.e How many links should i do in order to be in safe? So far, i've concentrated on building my social profile. Like getting as many retweets as possible. Slowly getting facebook likes and added few youtube videos with my link in it. Now i am on to link building. I will only do legit link building methods. Currently i am gonna get 2 press releases. But can you tell me no. of links i must get in a day.
PS: The keyword i am competing is highly competitive.

If the links are varied and built legitimately, they will look natural and so you will be OK.
I'm not sure you can put a number on what is OK or not though

Hi,
In my opinion is not the number of links that is important but the type of links.
You an build 10k a day if those links are good and without a pattern. If you do go and "help" those links to be build then you should take a few things in consideration:
-
sources and type of links should be very diffrent
-
the amount of links should be un-balanced as number per day (one day 5, one day 1, one day 90 and so on)
-
the anchor text is very important - it needs to vary a lot (I would say the anchor text should be brand, brand + keyword, long tail keyword, anchor texts like "more", "here" etc and some keyword basd links but in a small ratio overall)
-
also build no follow links
-
links that target inner pages should be correlated with fresh content on those inner pages. links to new inner pages should "die out" slowly over time (focus on a higher number of links in thebegining and cut the number down in time)
-
links should not have a comercial intent overall if possibile. or if they do - no follow those.
-
press release type of links should be overall, as number, a very tiny ratio of the overal link you build.
-
stay away for links that are "hosted" on sites that also host links for sites that are clearly focus on link building (that have a bad link profile) as you will be flagged only by doing that.
Just some short opinion overall - hope it helps and hope you can extract some advice from the above list.

Updating inbound links vs. 301 redirecting the page they link to
Hi everyone, I'm preparing myself for a website redesign and finding conflicting information about inbound links and 301 redirects. If I have a URL (we'll say website.com/website) that is linked to by outside sources, should I get those outside sources to update their links when I change the URL to website.com/webpage? Or is it just as effective from a link juice perspective to simply 301 redirect the old page to the new page? Are there any other implications to this choice that I may want to consider? Thanks!

External Linking & Your sites Link juice
Hey guys, quick question. Does a page lose link juice when it gives link juice? If I link to an outside site, do I lose that same amount of link juice or is it just applied to there site and not removed from mine? I understand that linking to a competitor can in turn help him and hurt me (if he then is seen as more relevant than me to google) but does it have a direct relation to hurting/removing my page link juice? Hope this all makes sense. Thanks

Advice on too many onpage links
Hi Just done a 250 crawl on a new site I am working on (still under development), all 250 pages seem to have too many on page links, however they do not have any links I can take away This page, for example, http://empleous.com/gb/store/category/398743/shoes?price=20-50 has (according to moz crawl) 252 links on. Seems a little high. What would be the best way to correct this please? I cannot find that many links. I know there are about 85 links in the menu bar but they are all needed and none of the others can really be replaced either. Thanks Carl

Too many links on your blog?
In all of my campaigns, I have a lot of URLs with too many links on the page (defined loosely as around or over 100 links per page); these links are virtually all found on blog pages. The link count shoots up quickly when you start using things like tag clouds, showing all the tags/categories a post is in, in addition to all the cross linking thats typical of blog posts. My question is: Does this matter? Do you work to get blog pages down under that 100 link limit, or just assume most blogs are like this and move along? If you think it does matter, what strategies have you used to cut down the number of links while still keeping popular elements like tag clouds?
