Question on backlinks indexing
-
Hello, my site is fairly new and I started building a lot of backlinks to it by posting my 5 from my website to several different web 2.0 and then posting all those 5 articles again to different article submissions + getting social bookmarks to my main site as backlinks.
My question is: Should I throw all those backlinks in an indexer to get them all indexed at once / ping them all OR do I let google crawler naturally find them and index them itself sort of like 'dripping' as it will find it one by one; stack by stack?
I would also like to know why Yahoo! hasn't indexed my site yet

I would be cautious with doing too much article marketing - you're at risk that search engines will see your article on multiple sites, deem it duplicate content, and then decide your article on a submission site should rank instead of the version on your own site. With the Penguin release, Google is also taking a closer look at links from article submission sites - I wouldn't be surprised if those links become lower and lower value as time goes by.
Definitely let Google discover your backlinks on its own - grow your link profile too quickly and they'll take a close look at your site to see if any of those links look suspicious.
There are plenty of more valuable ways to grow your link profile. Mike King recently had a post on this topic at http://www.seomoz.org/blog/the-noob-guide-to-link-building - I suggest you check it out for new ideas on how to build links to your site.

first i will say don't go to fast if you want to be up there for a long time and not just for few weeks, so sure let Google do it's work naturally.
regard Yahoo i just answer the same question , go here https://ecom.yahoo.com/dir/reference/cost and submit your Site and you be surprised what $300 can do, it will also help you with Bing and Google.
hope that help
Mike

Backlink Profile Cleanup
I have downloaded the domains that link to my website (550 domains) and I am going through the low quality (low DA) sites to ask them to remove their links to my website or I will disavow them. I have noticed alot of blogspot.in and blogspot.nl (SEE ATTACHED) Should I ask them for removal or disavow these? tJO50fQb

Backlinks From Press Releases - Should I Disavow Them?
About 2 months ago, I published a press release through PRWEB with a link back to my website of course. Now it must have been one of those morning where the coffee wasn't strong enough as my website already has a Penguin penalty I'm trying to get lifted. The intent wasn't to spam the web but rather to gain some traction in the business hosting world. Like I've said, the coffee must've been too weak that morning as it didn't even cross my mind to see if I could "nofollow" the links in the press release. I just hit the submit button... As I'm in the process of submitting a disavow links request to Google, I'm wondering if I should include the URLs to copies of those press releases? I mean, there's no way I can find all those links as it was submitted not long ago. Google and link tools will keep discovering other copies of the PR for months to come probably.

How do I get my unindexed links indexed?
I've been building links consistently to our site for the past three months. At first, some of my tactics were rather shady. As I learned more, I started to get more quality links. I have noticed that a very small percentage of my active links are currently indexed. Should I do something to get these older links indexed or just keep building new links? Will building shady links to unindexed links get them indexed? Will this get my site penalized? Does pinging help? What resource should I use to ping these unindexed links? Forgive me if this is a really basic question. I'm still learning the ropes.

Are backlinks to a domain that redirects useless?
I am working on trying to get backlinks. We are currently redirecting a few Domains to our current domain name. One of the Domains that is redirecting is the main Domain, we will be advertising in the near future. Can I send backlinks to the redirected URL or does it only carry link juice if it is to the main Domain?
