SEO advice for Link roundup
-
I publish a link roundup on my company blog on weekdays.
Example: http://www.shack.co.in/blog/argolinkroundups/daily-trail-game-jams-future-of-mapping-and-chomsky-on-education/I do this using a Wordpress plugin created by Project Argo for NPR news websites. Right now, these link roundup pages have a very low authority score.
Could you suggest a checklist of things to keep in mind while doing SEO for link roundups?
Thanks,
Abhiram

Really good questions. This is something that is taking on another aspect per recent updates to Google's webmasters guidelines: https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/66356?hl=en&ctx=NCUI and https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/2721312
My initial though is to separate each piece to make them unique, but then we have five to ten wimpy little posts. Not to mention that these types of posts add value to the end user with related and relevant context in the links that make it to these link round ups.
Another thought that might prevent a site from getting pinged for negating the above guideline links is to make that content appear in the source like you might with comments - loaded via JavaScript/AJAX so it never really load. But that is a whole other violation that might hurt your site in the long run.
What to do? Great question!

AllTop Linking Me to Other Sites Feeds, Webmasters Reporting Lots of Broken Links
I submitted my blog to All Top awhile ago and something seems to be wrong with their feed. They're sending people to mysite.com/truth-o-meter.com/this-is-a-post. It's not just truth-o-meter either. I'm getting links that are supposed to go to all kinds of political blogs. As a result, I'm getting a ton of broken links reported on Google Webmasters. I couldn't find any real support option on alltop.com, and when I log in, there are no sites for me to manage. Instead, I resubmitted the site with the correct feed address and in the comments, I mentioned the problem. All I got was a message saying the site was rejected. I believe because I already added the site. But I'm thinking they didn't pay attention to the comments. (In fact the message may have gone through an auto-filter considering how quickly it was rejected.) Is there a way to solve this? Is this a situation in which I would use the disavow tool? If All Top continues to create bad links, how do I stop the issue once and for all? Thanks!

Linking to press coverage, reciprocal links?
We have been generating decent online press coverage with links to our site thanks to our PR agency and I have been asked to link to the online coverage from our website in a 'press coverage' section. My question is would google consider links from our site to the online press coverage as reciprocal links? Thanks

Need Expert Footer Link Advice
We have a sister company that provides online administrative services to .EDUs. The administrative site has thousands of pages, with good pagerank, excellent trust, and a clean bill of health from Google, as does our corporate site. We have the ability to put footer links on every page back to our corporate website. Options: 1. Do nothing for fear of getting penalized by Google 2. Footer Link: Web Design by Logo, with "Web Design" being the anchor text. 3. Footer Link: Web Design by XYZ with "Web Design" and "XYZ" being the anchor text for link diversity. 4. Footer Link: Web Design by Logo with "Web Design" and the Logo (Alt Text "XYZ Corp") being anchors for link diversity. 5. Put up a page (or 2) about web design on the administrative site, have all of the footers link to that page, and have that page link back to our corporate site. We really aren't doing anything wrong here, but both sites have a clean bill of health and the Google spam police have me paranoid. Our corporate site has an excellent link profile with hundreds of links from .gov, .us, and .edu. The links have commercial value, and can drive traffic to our site. Looking for your thoughts before we make a move.
