          The message from the Akismet Anti-Spam Plugin means your account or content has been flagged as spam, often due to certain link-building practices. Akismet is designed to detect and filter out potentially spammy content, so if it finds too many unnatural or low-quality links, it may suspend your account.

          To address this, start by reviewing your link-building practices to avoid placing excessive or unnatural links, as these can trigger Akismet’s spam filters. Instead, focus on high-quality, relevant sites and avoid automated methods or repetitive links in comments or forums. If you believe your account was unfairly suspended, consider contacting Akismet’s support team, as they may reinstate your account upon review. Moving forward, prioritize genuine, high-value content and links from reputable sites, which can help reduce the risk of being flagged as spam and improve your SEO efforts.

            Unsolved Backlinks for all clients

            link building whitehat

            Hi, wondering if the SEO experts within the group could help us. We are looking to create a list, of quality backlinks, that could be built for all clients. I.e Medium.com links, just wondering, where various SEO consultants gain some of their links from. Obviously, quality links, need to be found via Moz Pro and Link Explorer, however, our question here is, where do SEO agencies, gain links from, for all clients?

            slug Link redirect to subdomain?

            redirect subdomain link building

            Hi !
            Im Levi new here and new in the world of SEO, please dont judge if my questions are silly. Back on the days when the site was built we thought it is a good ideea to have subdomains that together with the domain name represent our main keywords.
            ex. https://stansted.tonorwich.uk, https://heathrow.tonorwich.uk, https://luton.tonorwich.uk, https://gatwick.tonorwich.uk. There is content on this subdomains, would it make any difference from SEO perspective if we create slugs that redirect to these subdomains? for example creating https://tonorwich.uk/taxi-minibus-vip-tesla-norwich-to-stansted that redirects to https://stansted.tonorwich.uk ? Or better create these slugs with slightly different content?
            Any ideeas would be appreciated.
            Thanks in advance!

            Unsolved Moz doesn't find backlinks for months / link tracking list offline

            link tracking list link explorer backlinks domain authority

            Hi there
            I want to share a big problem with you. Moz tracking list seems to be offline or having trouble finding links. I have an example:
            The page where the backlink has been placed was created months ago. As you can see on the picture:
            Link to the page is http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/profile/tableauxdumonde
            Backlink on that page is https://ggongtime.com/ Picture shows clearly that the page of backlink (Microsoft) has been indexed and already has got it's own backlinks in Moz (8) but it is still not linking to the backlink website (ggongtime.com).
            I've also attached a picture of page source where you can clearly see that it is a html link and is dofollow.
            The problem remains since 3 months and I want to find out what is going on. This Microsoft page is one of example. There are hundreds of other pages being found, or not, and are still not showing up in Link Explorer on website's portfolio.
            I want to know if there is a technical problem with link explorer, or anything else, because this is a serious problem for me. moz problem.png

            What tools/techniques you use to check if a domain has been penalized?

            If we think to buy expired or otherwise dropped domains, what tools or techniques you would recommend to check if there has bad SEO history? We could of course, check with Google itself if the site is indexed and ranks, but I am asking if there is a particular tool out there that would provide more information if a website had been shady. Thanks so much, guys! Lily

            Web Designers and SEOs using backlinks from client sites

            What are your thoughts on SEOs and web designers putting their own links in the footers of client sites. For the sake of argument, lets assume that the client is happy for the link to be there. I'm referring to the SEO merits of the link being there from an 'irrelevant' website. My belief is that this goes against what Google is looking for and that these are irrelevant links and likely to be picked up and penalised.  That's what I believe! However, I see lots of sites offering SEO services that have dofollow links from their client sites, using exact match anchor text and they are all ranking highly. Is it just a matter of time before Google sniffs them out and penalises them for it?  Or should I be going through my client sites and adding myself a dofollow link in the footer? (with their permission of course). The highest ranking sites in any UK city do this.  If you search SEO Manchester, SEO Leeds etc and find the top ranking sites and check them out on opensite explorer, they are all using a disproportionate amount of dofollow backlinks form client sites.

            Linkbuilding for Clients? Do I create new email account for outreach?

            Hey Guys, So in the past when I would build links for a client I would create a new email account or have them create a new email account for their website which I can use for email outreach for building links. Also I would try to use their twitter user accounts to get in contact with other niche bloggers for a potential link back or a social mention. Is this how you guys suggest I should continue going about building links for a client?  Or do you suggest using my email (agency email) or a random gmail account for email outreach? Thanks
