Is there value in consistently getting a link from a high DA sites?
For example, consistently posting on a blog monthly rather then only doing it once and getting a link/being done with it.
Could you list the pros of consistently getting links on high DA sites?

i would say its good to get a few links, maybe make it every 3 to 6 months as links can get deindexed or become no-follow over time or even become inactive.
one thing to note that if you do see yourself getting hundreds of links from the same site, this could cause you site wide link issues, depending on where the link is placed

Hi there
There is value, definitely. Google looks at links as a vote and also "who you associate with" aspect. If you hang out with a good group of people, people are more like to trust and view you as a good person. If you hang out with bad people or shady people, people tend to view you the same way. Think of it that way.
I will add this in here - the best way to link build is to ask the following questions:
- Does this link help my website?
- Is this link relevant to my website?
- Would I trust this site (that's linking to me) if I landed on it?
- Is the website or content in which I am being linked from topically relevant to my website?
- If you check metrics - does anything about the metrics (domain authority, page authority,Majestic, SEMRush traffic/ranking data, etc) make me feel uneasy?
Getting links from high domain authority sites that are not relevant to your industry or market aren't as valuable, because they're not related. Use common sense. You'll know a good link when you see one, high domain authority or not. Check out this resource. Hope this helps!

Logistics of getting links removed
I recently got an unnatural links penalty notice from Google. Well, at least it's the type where they say they're only penalizing the links, and not the site. I've noticed lots of links from low-quality sites in my Webmaster Tools, and have been wondering why my site hasn't been ranking better since it abruptly dropped off around October 22, 2012 (I know, that's a very long time ago – I've been neglecting the site for other parts of my business). I'm hoping that if I make an earnest attempt to get these links removed, disavow the others, and submit a reconsideration request, my rankings may improve. So my question is this: How, logistically, do you go about getting all of these links removed? I mean, technically I get it: go through all of the links, try to contact all of those webmasters, keep records of all correspondence, and share that with Google. But how? Are there special tools and services for this? Are there contractors you recommend? I have other things I'd rather worry about in my business than undoing these unauthorized links.

Many competitor's backlinks are in content anchor links. Ho do I get these same links?
Hi I managed to open up OSE. I'm finding that much of the competition's backlinks are in content anchor text links. Am I supposed to get backlinks from these same pages using the same anchor text but linking back to my page or is that allowed? If so, how do I get these in content blog post links? Thanks. Sunil.

First 100 links for every new site?
Is there a rule of thumb I am unaware of or a place that others start to get links for every new site they create, something like the "first 100 links for every new site" regardless of content? I know you always start building links around what the content of your site is about, but does anyone have a rule of thumb that you always start with links from certain sites regardless of the site content. For example for a local company: Google Places, Bing Local, Linkedin, Facebook, Localeze etc. etc. I just want to make sure I am taking quality first steps for every site I start and was wondering if anyone could give me some good rules of thumb or resources.
