    I was using Open Site Explorer to look at a competitors back links and they had a lot from Diigo.com...a site I must must confess to have never heard of before.

    Diigo seem to have a strong Domain Authority but I don't understand how (or if it is wise) to utilise it to boost the organic performance of my website.

    My competitor seems to be taking advantage of it to good effect, but I cant work out how! In my mind it is a bookmarking & commenting tool that is geared up towards nofollow link sharing...I must be wrong?!

    http://www.diigo.com

    What do you guys reckon? Has any one here got any experience in optimisation via Diigo.com?

      Thanks for the advice Mat  - certainly useful to know it isn't worth investing a lot of time into for SEO purposes.

        diigo is a bookmarking service.  I use it myself, largely to save things I find online for later reading in a cross platform manner: ie I spot something on my phone and diigo it for later reading on my laptop.

        diigo has a few features that similar services don't offer, which I why I switched from evernote.  Groups sharing is a win for me as are some of the annotation features.

        You can make your bookmarks public as well, which is where those backlinks you are seeing probably come from.  Are they all from a couple of users or seem to be quite widespread?

        Social bookmarking as a link building means is pretty old hat to be honest and generally not too effective. In fact too high a proportion of this could be risky.  I think that most people would rather have one nice authority link than a load of diigo links.

        Short version then: good service, but not for link building.

          Google SERP shows wrong (and inappropriate) thumbnail for Facebook videos?

          Hello I'm running into a strange issue with at least one of my client's video. The video is posted on Facebook. When searching for the video on Google, the SERP shows a completely wrong, and inappropriate, thumbnail image. (And in one case the preview video starts playing within Google SERP.) It also seems that Google is indexing various countries' facebook page for the same video separately (it-it.facebook.com, fr-fr.facebook.com, etc). Note that only the thumbnail and preview video within Google are wrong; if you click on the link, you see the correct video and page. I hesitate to divulge the actual client video, but there are some reports on Google's search community about the same behavior: Here's one that stargs back in March: https://support.google.com/webmasters/thread/33760205?hl=en and a more recent one: https://support.google.com/websearch/thread/71452151?hl=en It looks increasingly like a bug in some google algorithm, but nobody at google seems to acknowledge that. I've unpublished the original video from FB and submitted an 'outdated content' removal to Google, which is pending. In the meantime, my questions for our group of experts here: Has anyone else experienced this and any other suggestionso n how to fix? If we assume that this is not a google bug: how could a malicious actor or black-hat SEO influence Google's algorithms to cause this? Thanks, mickey

          Facebook.com / referral - What is it?

          Hi Moz community! Coming to you today to ask a two fold question about a mysterious source/medium combination and also social medium data in general. First question relates to the attached image named 'Facebook Referral.' We've made sure to apply correct tags to all of our campaigns, both organic and paid, and are having a difficult time figuring out where this source/medium comes from which is a bit troubling as it actually has pulled in some revenue over the past couple of months The second question is around general Facebook data. Our Facebook business manager is vastly over reporting clicks to landing pages. For instance, we saw about 1,700 clicks to site as reported by Facebook business manager, whereas Google Analytics only registered about 950. I know data between the two channels rarely lines up perfectly, but this seems like a rather wide variance. Can someone help me to understand this, and let me know if there is anyway to reduce the occurrence of one or both of the issues we're facing. Thanks! referral.PNG

          Is Manta.com worth paying?

          Hello, I have currently have a Free listing but Im considering paying the monthly fee. Does it really generate leads? Does it help for link building and SEO?
          If it does, is it wise to link back to the profile page or the home page? Thanks

          Goarticles.com has anyone used them to generate traffic and brand

          Hi has anyone used go articles.com to increase their brand awareness and traffic. I have been using the site for a while now but never seen any real results where our articles only get a couple of views over the space of a few months while i have seen some other articles on the site that claim they are receiving thousands. would like to know if the stats are true what is the secret to generating traffic to the articles on the site and if there are better article sites out there to increase brand awareness.
