-

-
Keri i got u... I have to build my 60% to 75% to related my Miche and rest of the link from Very good Page and domain Authority.Only Build a link from higher page and domain authority.
Thanks much keri
-
A different way to look at this: If you sat down with one of the engineers on Google's spam team, and you both looked at this page together, would you feel comfortable saying "yes, that's my link"?
-
Thanks irving , only domain authority could not worthy??
so for best link juice we need to chk both page and domain authority right??/
Thanks

In this case, I think the toolbar PR6 might be for the hompage of the domain. The URL listed has a PA of 1. It's not a strong individual page itself.
-
If the link is on a clean page that is not spammed and has no chance of being spammed in the future, and also has a low amount of links on the page (both internal and external) than a PR6 link is a great link to get relevant or not. It is still passing the same PR. But don't confuse the homepage being PR6 with the page you are getting a link from as being a PR6 link. The PR has to be on the page, not the domain.

On any of the forums I admin, I'd remove that link in a heartbeat.
Before spending more time trying to add links, I'd suggest browsing the Q&A forum here and look at the number of people that are trying to remove low-quality links. The easiest link to remove is the one that you never built. I'd be cautious of finding places where it's too easy to just drop your link. Those are the ones that are unmonitored and going to be the hardest one to remove if you ever get hit for a bad backlink profile. I don't know how your profile does look, but the focus of these posts on building links exclusively, and for ranking rather than any type of converting traffic, is a little worrying.
-
No, stay as on topic as possible - just focus on getting higher quality links. If I understand you correctly, you already have 3k links and still want to improve you ranking. This tells me that you probably have a lot of low-med quality links and you should now focus your attention on getting high authority links.
News sites, authority health blogs, I would participate in health related forums instead of a random edu one, write an educational resource that cites other authoritative websites, contact webmasters in related niches and get backlinks from them, etc. Focus on quality over quantity.
Edit: Yeah, what Keri said. You need great content to get those high authority links you need to get your rankings to the next level. Especially in the uber competitive acne niche.
-
keri we have 500-600 word Original content which review that specific acne product very precisely. ..and we just put the img of 200x200 and give the affiliate link..and one banner at right sidrbar..Thats all we have on that page..
-
What does your content look like? Do you have information out there about Acne that other sites don't have? Do you have a reason for someone to go to your site as opposed to another site?
Here's a great YouMoz we posted (and promoted to the main blog) last week that talks about attracting links rather than building links. Instead of looking for places you can drop a link to your site, have you tried building the content on your site so people will want to link to you?
-
Oleg i really like your answer ..my niche is Acne and i find almost 2k- 3k link but some r not indexed ..after 3k what will i do to increase the authority??so if i go and build the link in different niche that would be ok?
-
According to u , for backlink we have to see first page authority and after the domain authority right??
Domain authority could not help to give some authority to our site?
-
If it's not related, it's not useful. The domain authority is for the site as a whole, not for that teeny tiny section. I have an edu link from Stanford. It's at ldt.stanford.edu/~myusername. The URL has been there since 2001, yet that page still has a page authority of 1 and no metrics, despite the domain authority of Stanford being huge.That subdomain has been having intermittent problems and is not always online, but my ranking does not change with whether that link is online or not.
I wouldn't go for the link. It's just not natural.
-
Shouldn't hurt, just wont be as effective as a link from a relevant topic.
Just throw your link into your signature and participate in the community. Just posting a thread with the url will probably get you banned from the forum.
-
Oleg if i tool the backlink from Pr8 forum with no spam but not a relevance so is it good or not??
My main concern is that forum have 6+pr but its not a my niche relevance so its good to take the backlink??
Thanks
-
Thanks keri for Prompt answer , But the domain Authority is 83 ..page has no authority so still its useful or not?
Chk this url
http://scci.csumain.csu.edu.au/com130/
Thanks
-
Lets put it this way, if you post an unrelated link into a forum and it isn't removed, that is not a link you want.
Un-moderated forums are filled with spam, high pagerank ones even more so. You risk that link hurting your website's rankings.
-
I've seen plenty of spammy EDU pages with 5000 spam comments and link drops. That's going to have no value for Google, and I wouldn't want my link on a page like that. I doubt the page itself has a toolbar pagerank of 6.
If you really want to investigate, look at the page itself in Open Site Explorer and look at our metrics for an idea if the page on which you want the link is trusted. Based on what you said, I wouldn't go for it or I'd get it removed. Can you share the URL here?

GMB UTMs Still Necessary?
Hi folks! Is it still necessary to add utms to GMB profiles to get clicks from GMB-informed results to register as organic in Google Analytics? I thought so, but I did a test recently and it looks like this isn't necessary anymore (adding utms)

Link conundrum - losing nav/footer links in mobile view
Hi Moz folks! I'm currently moving a site from being hosted on www. and m. separately to a responsive single URL. The problem is, the desktop version currently has links to important landing pages in the footer (about 60) and that's not something we want to replicate on mobile (mainly because it will look pretty awful.) There is no navigation menu because the key to the homepage is to convert users to subscription so any distraction reduces conversion rate. The footer links will continue to exist on the desktop view but, since Google's mobile-first index, presumably we lose these important homepage links to our most important pages. So, my questions: Do you think there is any SEO value in the desktop footer links? Do you have any suggestions about how best to include these 60-odd links in a way that works for mobile? Thanks!

Strange internal links and trying to improve PR ? - Please advise
Hi All, I've been looking at the internal links on my eCommerce site to try and improve PR and get it as efficient as possible so link juice isnt getting wasted etc and I've come across some odd ones I would like some advice on My website currently has between 125-146 links on every page (Sitemap approx 3500 pages). From what I read ,the ideal number of links is under 100 but can someone confirm is this is still the case ?..Is it a case of less is more , in terms of improving a page PR etc ? in terms of link juice strength etc so it's not getting diluted to unnecessary pages. One of my links is a bad url ( my domain + phone number for reason) which currently goes to a 404 page ?. - Is this okay or do we need to track down the link and remove it. I don't want link juice getting wasted as it's on every page. Another one of my links is my domain.name/# and another one with some characters after the # which both to the home page. Example www.domain.co.uk/# and www.domain.co.uk#abcde both go to homepage. Is this okay or am I potentially getting duplicate content as If I put these urls in , they go to my home page. I have a link on every page which opens up outlook (email) on the contact us. Should this really be changed to a button with a contact us form opening up instead ? I currently have 9 links on the bottom on every page i.e About it , delivery , hire terms,.contact us , trade accounts , privacy, sitemap. When I check , these pages seem to be my strongest pages in terms of PR. Is that because they are on every page?.. Should I look to reduce these links as they are accessible from the navigation menu apart from privacy and sitemap. Any advice on this would be greatly appreciated ? thanks Pete

Problem with internal links
Hello! Our domain, http://www.unionroom.com/, is having a strange issue with OSE in that it is telling us our internal pages aren't linking to one another. An example of this is that it is showing our About page ( http://www.unionroom.com/about/ ) only having three links, but this link appears twice on every single page on the website (~200 pages) in the header and footer. We've hung around for a little while to see if OSE would correct itself, but it hasn't and this now suggests that it may be an issue with our in-linking structure. Can anyone spot any issues with our build? The rest of the websites that we produce, that are all built in the same way, all have healthy internal linking structures according to OSE. Very confusing! Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Consensus on Paying to Remove Links
Hi all, For discussion... I am painstakingly working my way through a link profile, highlighting 'unnatural links' and contacting webmasters to try and get the links removed - I haven't got as far as 'disavow' or a 'Reconsideration Request' I have found a large number (around 150) of links from http://www.bookmarks4you.com and when I have attempted to contact the site for link removals I have had a payment request in order to do so. Now the amount being requested is low and so it may be worthwhile, however, I wondered what the consensus was with regards to this sort of demand? I know I could simply add the links to my 'disavow list' but for the sake of a small payment, I could get rid of them much quicker! Also, the majority of sites that I am contacting only have a contact from as opposed to an email address that I can use directly - what I am doing is taking a screen print of each contact form in order to have proof that I am actually doing the 'hard graft' as opposed to simply adding sites to a disavow list - is this a worthwhile exercise? Many thanks Andy

Should I remove all rel=nofollow links?
I have a 60 page site that had some nofollow links sprinkled throughout, 50% of which are probably on its mailto: email links. Should I remove all nofollows all in one go, or just the mailto links first, and later the others? Or has anyone had any negative effects in 2012 from this?

Does having multiple links to the same page influence the Link juice this page is able to pass
Say you have a page and it has 4 outgoing links to the same internal page. In the original Pagerank algo if these links were links to an page outside your own domain, this would mean that the linkjuice this page is able to pass would be devided by 4. The thing is i'm not sure if this is also the case when the outgoing link, is linking to a page on your own domain. I would say that outgoing links (whatever the destination) will use some of your link juice, so it would be better to have 1 outgoing link instead of 4 to the same destination, the the destination will profit more form that link. What are you're thoughts?
