      Hi

      Everyone says quality backlinks increase ranking of your website. Can you please suggest a list of good websites and blogs from where I can get quality backlinks and how to do that. I have one person at my disposal full time to do manual commenting or any manual tasks for getting backlinks but how should i approach this problem (of getting backlinks). Where do I start.

      For information, my website provides online services (its an ecommerce site) and also has a blog in subdirectory. refer to

      www.geekwik.com

      www.geekwik.com/blog

      Would like to become top ranker on search for these services (eg 'logo design services', 'website programming', 'content writing', 'hire virtual assistant' etc)

      Also anyone interested to become our SEO consultant or SEO  service provider (of course paid) is most welcome 🙂

      Thanks in Advance!

          The short answer is yes, it will help your whole site.

          As for the long answer:

          Every page that is included in the structure of your website, has internal links pointing to it, or has external links pointing at it will have some amount of authority/page rank.  Of that authority, a page is able to pass 85+% of it's total authority on to other pages.  So, if you have 10 links on that page it will pass around 8.5% of its total authority on to other pages.

          So, let's say you have a blog post about the "50 Best Logos Ever." From there you would want to link back to your logo service to try drive authority back to those pages.  That way if your post gets links you will be able to drive more authority back to your pages that make you money.

            One place to start would be to run an analysis of your competitors, see where they've earned links from & how. Then see where you can add value by creating content and linkable assets.

              Thanks Jerry. Here I have a question. Since my basic objective is selling my services (eCommerce) and I also have a blog in sub-directory which is wordpress based, does promoting articles on my sub-directory blog add link authority of my main website and finally will it drive more traffic to my main site?

                Unfortunately, quality back links aren't going to come from a list.  The best kind are naturally earned with great content, but you can supplement this process with a great guest blogging process.  To do this you will want to find blogs in your niche, which would be anything about advertising really, and build a relationship with them so that they will accept your guest blog posts.  There's awesome resources out there for best initial emails to start this process, but I don't have any saved off hand.

                The ideal option is actually getting links naturally.  To do this you will want to great engaging content that gets people to link to you.  This may be a list of the best 50 logos ever, or 10 reasons why you need a virtual assistant.  Anything that will get people to read it, comment, and then blog about it.

                  Backlinks from local businesses

                  backlinks backlink profile blog post backlinks

                  Hello, I need to make sure I understand this correctly. Will it help my SEO if I: find local businesses with a good DA & low spam score select businesses that are somehow related to mine (Insurance Agency) offer to guest post and include a backlink on their blog ( ask them if they'd like to reciprocate) For example, businesses such as
                  Roofing companies
                  Contractors
                  moving companies
                  etc Please let me know if there's anything I'm missing? Many thanks

                  How to get rid of bad backlinks

                  off-page seo seo backlinks spam score

                  So I noticed my rankings going down and spam score going up. So under my spam score there are over 100 links for different websites but ALL redirect to semalt.com I researched it and it says they hijacked a bunched of backlinks but don't know much more. How can I get rid of all those backlinks? I was told I could use the disavow tool but apparently that can hurt my ranking as well. The semalt.com site has no backlink to me - it looks like the pages that have/had my backlinks, they've redirected to them. For instance this is one of the links http://www.oxvideos.xyz/indianantyphotoxxx 422005fb-9240-40a4-8b65-f5b1f5079dea-image.png

                  What Should be the URL of third party blog for my website

                  Hi All, What Should be the URL of third party blog for my website. Lets say if i have a website xyz.com (which provide pest control services in New York City) and I want to create third party blogs on platforms like blogspot, weebly etc so should i create the blog url as xyz.blogspot.com or i can use a keyword in the blog URL such as pestcontrolnyc.blogspot.com? Which URL would be the best as per Google's guidelines. Note: I have already have a blog within the domain as xyz.com/blog/ and i do weekly posting on this blog. But at the same time i want to create 1-2 third party blogs to get some backlinks from other sources.

                  What are the SEO implications of high quality backlinks from US-based websites to UK-based websites?

                  Hi everyone, quick question I hope someone could help me with: We're representing a client based in the UK. As part of their overall strategy we've been linkbuilding. At the moment, about 80/90% of the links we've gained come from UK-based sites, with 10/20% coming from US-based websites. The US based websites are very good (think New York Times and genuine, relevant blogs with good readerships). An external search analyst/consultant has contacted the client to say that the US links will be harming the site, because the links are from websites in the US and not the UK. We believe that if 80/90% of the links were from the US this could indeed cause harm as it could indicate to search engines that our client is in the US when it's not (which might compromise their chance of ranking in .co.uk versions of search engines) however because it's only 10/20%, and because the linking sites are very good, we believe that they will getting all of the benefits of the positive metrics without any meaningful negatives. We just wanted to get a few opinions on this to see if people think that we're mistaken, and would be glad to hear any opinions contrary to our own.

                  Is it okay to post my blog posts to both an internal blog on our domain and an external blog?

                  We have a blog internally at kay-grant.com/blog and also created an external blog at ActiveRain.com Is it okay to post the same blog posts to both sites or should I have different content for each blog?
