Should I optimize/link build all my pages at once?
-
I'm currently starting to optimize about 30 area specific pages for a property maintenance company and was wondering, what's the best way to link build multiple pages at once?
Should I link build for all of the 30 the pages at once, or maybe focus on 5 individual pages - get them ranking well, then focus on the next 5 and so on?

If you know now that you will optimize 30 pages then make your plan now. Determine which pages will focus which key words or phrases. This will help you avoid cannibalization within your own site. You can also start now with building anchor links between each page as you optimize them.
As you build links or otherwise improve your first few pages, you may encounter an opportunity for another page. You can then either take notes so you can easily backtrack later, or you can stretch and include the extra page while it is convenient. An example is you may have a site which sells insurance. You might contact an auto dealer and obtain a link on their site referring car buyers to your site. At the same time perhaps you might think about the health or life insurance needs of the car dealer's employees and find an opportunity there as well.
One last thought. Once you feel your first 5 pages are optimized, I would not recommend waiting for them to rank well. Go ahead and jump into the next 5. It takes time for SEO to work. There is no benefit to waiting. Get started now.

As link building is a very long process i suggest you do a perfect on-page SEO so each page targets specific keywords and what ever opportunity arises to get good juicy links to your website no matter the page just do it as even if you target lower pages for links your home page still gets some juice from it.
Hope it helps.

Link to page in SERP or page with good on-page optimisation
Hi, Some friends are happy to link to my site. As I am focusing on a particular search term is it best to have them link to the page that already appears in the SERP for that term or the one with better on page optimisation? Thanks Billy

Link building
Hello everyone, I am building links for an e-commerce site and I need to increase the value of the links we get by placing them on specific pages in order to pass more juice to inner pages. Which part of the website should I point the links to? Because there is no content section on the site what I can do is either link to the homepage (not an option) or link to inner pages such as category/subcategory/product pages. My doubt is that it wouldn't look natural to link to products pages from a piece of content or from a site where people go with the intention not to buy but to get information. Any opinions on this?

I realize that our site sent actually allow for back links and was thinking about devoting a page to this. I few sites i have approached have asked for reciprocal links so i thought it mite be useful to have a space that allows for this. Doe anyone have any advice about allowing for back links on your website. Is there an optimum number that i should be mindful of if I'm going to add links to my site? Any advice would be much appreciated Thanks Pete

A few questions about link building?
1. Is it worth gaining more then 1 link on a website when link building, for example if I did a guest post on a blog, is it worth doing another guest post on the same blog linking to the same website? So 2 guest posts on 2 blogs, or 4 guest posts on 4 blogs? 2. When building links through guest blogging, you have two options, a link in the byline and a link in the content. Will a link in the content have more benefit then in the byline as its surrounded by relevant content? 3. Does having a link higher up the page have more benefit then one lower down?

Value of Inbound Links to Pages With a lot of Outbound Links
Suppose you have a resource page of the Top 50 Awesome Sites in your niche. Since there are about 50 outbound links, then I would think there will be less Page Rank being passed to internal pages from internal links on the resource page. Since you are getting less PR passed to internal pages, are there other ways the inbound links can be beneficial, such as increasing the diversity of links of your domain? Sites like SEO Optimise seem to create a lot of Top 30 Resources lists and I have read that they think it is a strong tactic.
