Creative Linking for Marginal Industries?
-
I work in a field similar to casinos, which obviously makes standard link building practices more difficult. Also, my company cannot operate in the US.
Any SEOMozzers who work in similar fields and have ideas for creative link building to successfully build a robost (and white hat) link profile for marginal industries?
Thanks!

Try this strategy. let's say you are trying to rank in the UK. Find some .co.uk sites where you can build links from. You may get better rankings in google.co.uk.
I wish I could help you more.

Hi,
Thanks for the advice, but that doesn't really work for an online business with no local presence such as mine...

I have a client in Mexico. I am in the US. What I do is try to link to them from local business chapters like their local Chamber of Commerce. Also, I try local business listings. Getting links in a market where the web really has no strong presence (other than facebook and stuff like that) is tough, but the competition is low! Make a public facebook pages page and put your link on that.
There are many strategies on link building. In fact, you can find many here on SEOmoz. Start getting your customers to Like your page. Here, read this: http://www.seomoz.org/beginners-guide-to-seo/growing-popularity-and-links

Link from a directory
Hi, im submitting a clients website to some directories. They are a dental practice and I'm adding them to this website http://goo.gl/Tvyabd Once i added the business to its directory it asked me to add a link (in so many words) back to its website from my clients website. Is this ok to do or is it seen as spam? Im confused about this as sometimes directories are free and sometimes they ask for a fee for it to be fast tracked to put it on the website. I always check the Domain authority of the websites and make sure they are relevant to the industry that I'm working in but again not sure if this would be seen as "paying" for links. Thanks Ade

How to link build?
Hello all. I've been having intense conversations with an experienced SEO, who has told me that the only way to get consistent links to your website, and to build you business through the web is through blogger outreach, and then paying the bloggers to put your appropriate content on their high Page Ranking website. To me, this may well be right. But it sounds dull as anything. Any thoughts? William

Internal linking anchor text with automated ASP.NET link building
Hi Everyone I really need some help here, the problem I have must be one that many have. I have a simple e-commerce style website so 1 product page can in fact get 40-50 internal links to it. These links come from a mixture of: 1. The parent category pages that the product sits on (Rugged PDA) and in turn the 10 filter pages of this category page (Rugged PDA, ordered by battery size). 2. Alternative product list on other product pages, So many products link to each other as alternatives. From Google analytics we can see that visitors like to browse product to product seeing 5 alternatives on each page with titles like "Smaller", "more rugged" etc. 3. Manufactuer pages, so we have a link to each product from each manufacturer home page where we talk lots about each manufacture we resell. We also have links from images used in the website. So its a nice usable website but we're finding that Google is still telling us in Webmaster tools that it thinks some links are dubious and we're trying to find out why. We only now have 190 external links to the website, most are internal and from the website or our blog on a subdomain. The problem we think is that we generate the category and products pages all dynamically so the anchor text is looking the same. Will this potentially create issues for us? Dave

Whoa 1000's of links from Industrial Interface?
Hello all! I just took over an account, and in webmater tools the site has thousands of links to its homepage from a site named http://www.industrialinterface.com. Not sure if this is a good or bad thing. (thinking bad) Tried to contact the webmaster, and the contact form does not work, so that right there is a bad sign. Does anyone have an opinion on industrial interface? Anyone have luck in reaching them? Appreciate the feedback! Dorian

Unnatural Link Warning - What to Do??
I just want to ask your advice or suggestions, my new client site received a link warning from Google regarding unnatural link, as I've checked his site backlinks using Seomoz site explorer there are almost 4000+ backlinks and almost 3/4 of the total links are from forum profile spam and blog comment spam. I know it is impossible to remove all those links totally. I would like to ask your advice if what's the best thing to do? Setting up a brand new site and domain or doing a cleanup. Thanks in advance.

Remove Unatural Links
We hired a SEO firm to build links for us two months ago, and now, we received "unatural link" warning from Google. SEO firm informed that they have taken steps to remove these links. But, we don't think we should trust and depend on them for that. We want to be on it and would like your advise for the following three questions: how to determina whether a link is "natural" or "unatural"? We want to make sure we don't remove the natural ones We saw 933 links from Blogspot.com, that for sure do not look natural, how do we go about to remove it? Based on SEO firm's report, certain links have be removed, but, it is still showing on Google Webmaster, should we give it sometime to crawl and confirm?

Different Link Titles Linking to the same page
So I'm doing a lot of link building but my question is how do search engines treat different link titles to the same page. For example, my main page is www.musillawfirm.com If I have 20 links from 20 sites linking to it as Melbourne FL DUI Lawyer and 20 more linking as Melbourne FL immigration Lawyer and More linking as Cocoa FL DUI lawyer etc... what happens? Do the search engines just rank me higher for all the terms or would it be better to always just link to separate landing pages? Thanks in advance
