Can link juice be passed in an iframe from domain A to domain B
-
Need to give our web partners our booking form which must be loaded in an iframe calling back to our domain. Is it possible to pass any link juice from their domain loading our iframe back to us.
Was thinking of a "Powered by" text link in the form footer, but I'm guessing the link needs to be outside the iframe.
Would love to hear any thoughts or workarounds on this.
-
Oh. I see that my solution below was already suggested! Whoops!
-
You can totally get some juice! Just not through the iframe code. Example:
<iframe><br />blah blah code booking blah code<br /></iframe>
booking provided by cool dude, craig spencerJust give that code to your partners. Some will remove the link, but other will leave it. How do you think AddThis got to be a PR10?

Tks Roger,
I'm not a developer so sorry if this sounds stupid but instead of using an iframe, is it possible to push the booking form via a widget or api of some sort that allows the form and link to be followed by bots.
-
Nope. iFrame is a link juice free zone.
-
Thanks for the reply Aaron but I'd prefer not to allow our partners access to modify the link if possible.
-
You're correct in thinking no link juice can be passed through an iframe. You could however have a link immediately before or after it in the method you mentioned, and then give your partners the whole HTML including that link.
Hope that helps!
Aaron

When conducting a link building strategy does it matter the country the link is from?
We are a UK business and if we have links mostly from US based blogs and websites does this penalise us. The links are from relevant websites and topics. Should we be focusing on .co.uk sites

How do I find and can I trust link building companies
I'm finding it hard to build quality links. I don't want to employ a link building company as I can't find anyone I can trust. I also don't know what is a realistic rate of pay for link building work.

How can I find all the outbound links from a website domain?
I want to find all the outbound links (basically whatever comes in <a>tag) from a domain (say www.abc.com) as well as all the subdomains under it (say abc.com/a etc). Open Site Explorer provides the inbound links from a website but does not provide any functionality to get all the outbound links from a website. Is it possible to do?</a> <a>Thanks in advance.

Does the ratio of external nofollow links to external "do follow" links matter in terms of SERPs ranking?
My site has an external link nofollow:dofollow ratio of approximately 1:1 That is, there are about as many nofollow external links as "do follow" external links. I have an impression that the ratio of no-follow to "do follow" links is a factor in the way that our website shows up in SERPs. I have the impression from reading a variety of sources, and from looking at Seomoz, that calculate "trust" factors as if they mattered (in SERPs), that seem to value a relatively low nofollow:dofollow ratio. Am I correct about that? Thanks,

How can I verify who links to me?
I need to verify all the inbound links I have coming in to my site. I've tried using OSE but have been told it does not scrape many smaller sites so cannot be sure of it's accuracy (especially since when I ran it, it returned a small % of the link i know are out there). Is there a way to do this in Analytics? Or another way? Thanks
