Nolo.com or bbb.org for link building?
-
Has anyone used nolo.com's directory and do you think it is worth it for link building?
How about bbb.org
I run www.musillawfirm.com
thanks in advance

Do you recall what the cost was? I'm considering it for a few of our clients.

That's pretty steep. You have to think about more thank link value too though. People looking for a lawyer may find you in the nolo directory. it may be expensive but it is a pretty fantastic link. Maybe do all the other stuff first, see how well you can do in the rankings, and when you're looking for something to put you over the top, try getting a link then. If you can get to the top without it, then great, you saved yourself some cash.

nolo charges a significant fee - 155 a month - or 1800 for 2 years
bbb.org charges as well - but I haven't spoken to their rep.

I've had good experience with a link from BBB - never used nolo.com
Shortly after joining and becoming "accredited" they appeared as the #7 result for our company name which has a nice connotation especially if your company has a good grade. Definitely worth the cost.

If you have a law firm then being listed at nolo.com is pretty valuable. You get two links it looks like, your profile and then your city/category you show up for. I would definitely pursue a link there.
bbb.org is a very authoritative site. getting a link here would be great as well.
Were you considering not getting links from these sites? Or do they charge a fee and you are wondering if the fee is worth it?

Is building a Link Network from scratch a good idea?
My SEO agency are suggesting that they will build a Link network from scratch by buying domains and building blog sites on them. All sites that link to my site would in theory be 'clean' and as we build up their authority we increase the value of the links to my site. One of the upsides is taht we would have complete control of all the links. This does sound a bit spammy but in theory could it work?

Anyone have experience with AdTaxi for link building services?
Recently a client of ours received a proposal from a local newspaper for search related services, including link building. I believe the name of the company the paper is working with for some of these services is AdTaxi, which i had not heard of before. Anyone have experience with these guys from a link building standpoint? I know that here we are more "do it yourselfers" and for the most part, we handle all of the on-page and technical SEO for our client's sites, but link building as a dedicated service isn't something we have the resources to offer so I'm just looking to do some research. Thank you! -William

Domain extensions and link building
Hi, If you were trying to rank your website for a search term in Google UK, would it be more beneficial to build links from .co.uk websites then any other? I have read on Hubspot if your targeting UK rankings then link building from .co.uk domains will have a good impact on UK rankings? Thanks

Any value in link building to local pages on my site?
If I'm trying to rank for the term 'wedding band' with my url: http://www.musicliveuk.com/home/wedding-bands will linking to local pages such as: http://www.musicliveuk.com/live-acts/hire-wedding-bands/wedding-bands-london help the main page to rank? I added the 'local' pages to try and pick up any traffic from long tail search queries but my main focus is on getting the main page to rank as the traffic from long tail queries is so small. So is it worth me spending time building links to these local pages in order to try and help the main page rank?

Links from local.com after Penguin
I have been doing some research on where some competing links are getting their links from and I see that a decent number seem to be getting some juice from local.com. My question is- have the panda & penguin updates rendered these useless- or even worse can links from directories like this now harm my SEO?
