Nolo.com or bbb.org for link building?
-
Has anyone used nolo.com's directory and do you think it is worth it for link building?
How about bbb.org
I run www.musillawfirm.com
thanks in advance

Do you recall what the cost was? I'm considering it for a few of our clients.

That's pretty steep. You have to think about more thank link value too though. People looking for a lawyer may find you in the nolo directory. it may be expensive but it is a pretty fantastic link. Maybe do all the other stuff first, see how well you can do in the rankings, and when you're looking for something to put you over the top, try getting a link then. If you can get to the top without it, then great, you saved yourself some cash.

nolo charges a significant fee - 155 a month - or 1800 for 2 years
bbb.org charges as well - but I haven't spoken to their rep.

I've had good experience with a link from BBB - never used nolo.com
Shortly after joining and becoming "accredited" they appeared as the #7 result for our company name which has a nice connotation especially if your company has a good grade. Definitely worth the cost.

If you have a law firm then being listed at nolo.com is pretty valuable. You get two links it looks like, your profile and then your city/category you show up for. I would definitely pursue a link there.
bbb.org is a very authoritative site. getting a link here would be great as well.
Were you considering not getting links from these sites? Or do they charge a fee and you are wondering if the fee is worth it?

When conducting a link building strategy does it matter the country the link is from?
We are a UK business and if we have links mostly from US based blogs and websites does this penalise us. The links are from relevant websites and topics. Should we be focusing on .co.uk sites

What are some Boilerplate Link-Building Activities for a new site?
Assuming you have built a new sophisticated site that involves high user engagement as in bounce rate < 30% sophisticated genuine content (pages > 2000 chars) best possible site speed what are some of the boilerplate link building activities you would execute under which considerations? Activities: I am thinking of things along the lines of building X social media links using a fiverr submission to curated link directories reach out for high quality links with thought leaders etc Considerations: I am thinking of things along the lines of keep a constant link gain velocity over the first 3 months make sure you place links across pages not just the root domain make sure you have a mix of follow and no-follow links and a natural anchor text distribution In short I am hoping we can crowdsource a linkbuilding starting guide in the SEO world of 2015. /T

Most effective method for link building?
From your experience, what have you found to be the most effective method for link building? It's starting to look like the only way to receive good links is by writing great content or offering great services and allowing the links to come in naturally (which is obviously the most important thing anway), but are there still any effective methods of getting valuable links through link building, apart from having personal connections and relationships with site owners?

Link building outsource advice
I have been limping along doing link building myself for several months now. Creating relationships, asking for links, writing some articles and press. So far, decent results, but I need to take it to another level. I used SubmitEdge's 400 manual directory submission product, but still not seeing many links coming from it. So, I would like to hire an onshore SEO to help me with link building. After getting several quotes from reputable companies, I found the process very frustrating. I know this business is not about guarentees, but they all want $600-$1000 per month for a fairly open ended service. All they tell me is that they will submit to directories, social media sites, shopping sites, and some niche sites. No guarentees of how many (or what quality) of links I'll get, or even how much time they even plan to spend. Any suggestions on what I should expect? and any suggestion companies?
