Does anyone have any experience getting local DMOZ listings?
-
I have a client with a business that has locations in about 20 different states. Can I get them local listings in DMOZ? If so, how?
-
I guess you can be thankful for the one you managed to get : )
-
DGSEO, as everyone else has stated, it's VERY unlikely that you'll be able to get more than one DMOZ listing. I know it took me weeks just to get one!!
-
Definitely, Liz... Google places works for this client very well.
Thanks!
-
Yeah... we're thankful to have the ones we've got!

You will have trouble getting any site listed in DMOZ!
Not saying it's impossible, but the last 5 sites I've tried to get listed have failed miserably despite following their guidelines definitively.
-
You would have difficulty getting one site listed in more than one category of DMOZ:
"You should submit a site to the single most relevant category. " http://www.dmoz.org/add.html
Is there a main office location you could use?
Google Places would be really important for you- setting a listing up for each location and ensuring to link to the most appropriate subdomain of the client's site.

Question about reciprocal link building. I'm not an SEO professional, just a local service business owner.
I did a link page on my website 13 years ago and never took it down. Should we scratch that page all together? Is it ok with Google to do a page on Recommended local service providers. Maybe I can keep some of those reciprocal links if that's the case...

Could anyone help me with this fake site I found in my backlink profile?
The site is masquerading as 'yurbuds' store, a brand of headphones, but in SERPs, as seen in the image below, the content on the site is actually of one of my other sites. Has anyone seen anything like this before? How would it have happened? My instinct is to disavow. Any other thoughts? Thanks in advance! IvDcE

Best way to get over the Hump (from page 2 to page 1)
Hello, I've recently been able to bring my site way up in the rankings for some very competitive keywords. I've done nothing spammy, and everything has been done with a lot of detail and a focus on only using the best techniques. My site is on page 2 for a lot of keywords. What would be your suggestions for getting over that hump and making it to page 1? I'm happy with my results (coming from pages 30-50 to page 2 over a couple of months) but I'm not satisfied and won't be until I can be on the top of page 1... Any suggestions are welcome... Thanks

Does it affect SEO of how quickly you get in-bound links?
We have undertaken a very aggressive in-bound linking campaign. I have a whole team of people working to get in-bound links to our site. But I dont want to cause any red flags to the search engines on how quickly we get all of these in-bound links. Will they notice or flag our site if they see a quick rise of in-bound links? Thanks.

Local Search Citation Building - 2 links on 1 page?
I have the opportunity to display information about a business on a handfull of high PR web pages (with relevant content, not directory listings). I'd like to use these listings to build local search citations and homepage authority/rank for chosen anchortext. The format allows name, address, phone number, email & url plus a description of the business (short paragraph that can contain a link) - see below. Should I link from the homepage url and body anchor text? Will search engines ignore the anchor text used in the 2nd link? Example Limited, 123 Example Road, London N12 3AA United Kingdom Tel: 020 712 3456 Email: ** hello@example.com** **Web: www.example.com ** A unique service offering special widgets to customers in the London area
