Is it a good idea to cross-link my websites?
-
I own multiple websites in the same niche but all are targeting a different sub-niche and different keywords.
Is it a good idea to interlink all my websites? Could there be some negative effects?

Ahh I see read this prior to my morning coffee...
Yes you are correct, don't know why I was thinking that the sites where going to be migrated... However, if 3 pages are on the 2nd page of Google for one keyword, doing a 301 redirect from 2 of the 3 pages to 1 page should help win.

There's nothing wrong with Legitimately linking to relevant websites (yours or not)
SEOMOZ for example.. They link to all of their properties from here...
The only thing to look out for is site-wide links, or more links then what would be regarded as "natural"
Also, make sure your websites are all on unique C-class IP's or Google wont value the links from your other sites as much as it would if they were on unique C-class IP's.
If 10 sites have the same C class IP, they are most likely owned by the same person, therefor Google places less value on them

As long as the sites don't have penalties or too many bad (non relevant) links pointing at them you should be fine. What is the reason for this? are you trying to push PR to one site? If so... What does your linking profile look like?
If the new site will target the same keywords or if you are going to use the same exact text I would recommend doing a 301 redirect so that you can keep you link juice (authoritative qualities) and avoid duplicate content.

Should I disavow these links?
Hi all, I have a ski website that I am currently performing a toxic backlink audit on. I have noted that a lot of the links being flagged as toxic/spammy by the tool I am using seem to be the same/similar sites with different URLs. The sites are vaguely related to skiing (relating to helicopter travel options for travelling to ski resorts) but it is concerning me that there are so many of them and they are being flagged as so toxic.

Do you think it is worth disavowing these? Or contacting the owner to ask them to remove the link? I have included an example of some of the links below. https://www.cannes-helicopters.co.uk/index.php?menuopen=21&showcontent=5
https://nice-helicopter.co.uk/index.php?menuopen=21&showcontent=5
https://monaco-helicopter.co.uk/index.php?menuopen=21&showcontent=5 Slightly different site but same favicon icon:

When will link farms and back sites be penalized or when will the website using them as backlinks be penalized?
After doing some backlink searching on competitors, I see a great deal of competitor's backlinks are obvious linkfarms and just completely unrelated to their field. Also I see a lot of forum comments using links are showing as backlinks, upon inspecting the html element I see they're " no follow " links. Why are they showing up as backlinks with link equity then?

Is this a good idea for link earning?
Hi, One of our clients provides legal documents online and one of the document is bespoke 'Privacy Policy' for websites. It normally comes with a price as solicitors draft each policy manually. We were thinking to offer this for Free 1 - As a promotion so that we can attract webmasters 2- to earn links that we will ask webmasters to give us a link from their website once they add the text I wanted to get the understanding from you before i go ahead if this is a good a way to gain links or not? I appreciate your input Thank you

Links on Charity websites?
Do links on link pages or home pages work on unrelated sites, I know if a site is unrelated and the content is related it puts a similarity in the link to helps it's worth but with just a link on a links page (5-10 other links not a directory) does this pass any power or is it a bad idea.
