Link Building for a website with 170 K Pages
-
My website is having around 170 K webpages and every web page is meant for individual keyword. e.g. keyword for every page is height of a movie star.
What should be my link building strategy
-
Should I link other sites to index page of my website (if yes then what should be the anchor text) ?
-
Should I link other websites to individual web pages of my website.

What is a brand anchor text?

Hi, I would first look at your internal link structure of the website to make sure you have the best appropriate pages linking to specific keywords. You would want to target the most competitive terms via this.
Once this is complete I would then move onto high quality link building for the website as said above I would then focus on utilizing varied anchor text and brand terms.

I had a similar ish issue with an ecommerce store of my own. It has 90,000 products on and I was spending far too long targeting individual product names. It proved to be a false economy to me; while it was good to rank no1 for the actual product name, the number of people who search Google for exact product names was tiny. As A result I have now dropped this approach and I'm targeting more generic keywords such as 'black dress' 'red tights'
Try and target a few dozen broader keywords which bring in many more searches. If you build up your domain authority enough then the individual pages will rank of their own accord (depending on your site quality and the competition, of course)
-
If you are starting out, I would use brand anchor text to my homepage and build up domain authority first
I would not use exact match anchor text tod epe pages in my site from spammy domains (anything less than PR2, DA less than 30 or having less than 100 unique domains linking to it)

Inbound Links from Broken Pages
Hi all, We have a client who has a lot of inbound links from external pages that are broken/404. The 404 pages are EXTERNAL and linking to my client's pages, but their domain still has authority and their home page (and other pages) still load. My question is: what should we do about this? Do we detox those links, or are they still sending some juice given that they have domain authority, despite the fact that the pages linking to my client are broken? So in other words: - My client is: yyyy.com - They have a link from vvvv.com/services, which is a broken page - So what should we do about this? Thanks all! Gavin

Link Building Cost
Can anyone share typically what a US Based SEO Agency should or would charge for creating good quality backlinks? All of the pages we are targeting have been optimized with quality content and are ranking half decent. The keywords we are targeting are med-high competition keywords. We've located a few offshore agencies with prices in the 100$ range for 10 keywords but are leery of moving forward, currently it's the cost we are paying for 1 Keyword here in the US. Thank You!

India and Link Building
A client of mine has decided to work all Link Building through an India team that she's used for a few years. The problem that I'm having with this situation is that the link building list below contains quite a few 0/10 PR websites, spam websites, and websites that have no direct relation to the client's industry. Am I wrong in thinking that link building should be done to high PR, authoritative sites that are related the the client's industry? The link below will take you to the Google Doc that contains all links built for this client. I would love it if someone could take a look at that list and tell me what they think. Is this recipe for disaster or great link building? https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B4a0JOKKFu0SUFZRbFRBNUZJekE Thank you so much!!!

What are the pros and cons of using a link builder? Can link building be outsourced?
Hi, I have great content on my website which I would like to build external links to from other websites. I am told this will increase my domain authority and ultimately help search engine ranking positions. I have very limited time in my hands and now thinking of outsourcing the link building component to a specialist. Is this a good way of doing it? Could you recommend professional link builders?

Current best link building practise
Hi guys, Just an open discussion. I don't want to be told to use directories or just 'guest blog'.. What is the best method you are currently using? A lot of my competitors are using older techniques for quick wins but we're wary to do that due to the long term consequences... Thanks

Link & Content Building
this is a tough one for me. Some of you know that the average SEO contract is fairly limited in budget.Clients in very competitive industries are fearing spending a lot on SEO. I do not think I should list the reasons for this.what do you do with limited budgets for SEO.The onsite-technical optimization is fairly easy and take much prsonal labor but it is manageable.The off-site optimization, links, content , and just getting you client out there is time and funds consuming over the scope of regular projects I know.My question is what do you do with onsite optimization really. I am sure some advice will include write great content, get it out there, guest blogging however those are not readily available and are not fitting the scope of any project.what do you think?

Link to those that link to you? Worthwhile?
We have thousands and thousands of sites that link to a domain we are working on, many with low page authority and high domain (bloggers, forum posts, etc). Has anyone experimented with linking to the pages that link to you (not from your site) but from other means in an effort to boost their quality? I'm not sure what method we would use, maybe some relevant blog comments or social votes. But curious if this could be an effective method.
