    Hi guys my site: www.dorchdanola-netbutik.dk is a e-commerce store, and generally we have many links on all pages because of the many products and categories.

    Im not sure if this is actually bad or good? I've been told that it will definately harm my site when google crawls it. The thing is that google visit my site often and I still have good pageranks in google.

    So does it actually harm my site having all these products and categories? And what can I do about it if google see every page as duplicate content?

    I also link to my social pages like FB, G+, e.g. Should I put rel="nofollow" or rel="me" on these social links?

    Thanks guys!

      Hi Anders,

      I would expect that Google would see and understand the jquery menu links.  They've been able to find links in simple Jscript for several years now, and certainly jquery is one of the most common libraries out there, so I'd be surprised if they're not already all over that.

        Hey Michael, 
        Thank you very much for the answer and your time for taking a look on my site.

        The thing is, I nearly cant cut down the menu more down. Without the submenues customers would have to skim through lots of products on each single page. So the current structure is more userfriendly.

        Would it be better to have a jquery menu that shows the categories when getting the mouse over? Something like on amazon.co.uk ?

        I know that my site lacks of low content on site and it will be something I will focus on from next month.

        Thanks alot for the reply

          You've definitely got a lot of links in there in your navigation, but I don't think it's really going to hurt you. It's doing to distribute link juice pretty evenly across all of the pages linked to from that left-hand menu and the submenus.

          You MIGHT consider reducing the left menu to just the main categories, and NOT including all of the submenus.  That would funnel a fair bit more link juice to the main categories, and the submenus I'm guessing are all pretty long-tail anyway, so they shouldn't need as much.

          I don't see a duplicate content problem here.  I'm seeing different content on every page.  You might consider putting noindex/follow on some of the intermediate pages that merely list subcategories, like this one:

          http://dorchdanola-netbutik.dk/category/belysning-el-artikler-485/

          These kinds of pages will be seen as extremely content-light...and that's not so good.

          I wouldn't nofollow your social media links. And rel=me mostly you use to link an author page back to your G+ profile, so I wouldn't use that here.

            Internal Linking - Post links vs Side Bar Links behaving differently

            Hi, I have a question regarding the internal linking behavior.  My website is www.hindimeaning.com  which is approx 3 years old. I have approx 450 posts. Now i have a widget on right sidebar "Popular posts". A widget below my posts "Related Posts". And a simple html CSS menu above the posts (I removed menu around 6 month before so currently it will not show.) I crawled my site with moz crawler (same are the result from google crawler as well) and it shows menus links as internal links. While sidebar widget "Popular posts" and "Related Posts" are not showing as internal links. If we talk theoretically what i learn till now is "every link on a page behaves as internal link". Then why the widget links are not showing as internal links. Thanks, Mahesh Kumar

            Partner links - is this bad?

            I have been looking at whys to get natural links, another SEO company said that instead of doing Guest Blog Posts there now adding single links to partner pages on websites which have a follow link.  To me this sounds like basically a links page rebadged as a partners page.  Is this a dangerous practice? or does this carry some weight with the search engines?

            Link Exchange

            Hi everyone, I just started working for a client in a new niche. After reviewing the backlink profiles of his competitors I can see that the top sites are using a ton of link exchanges. They are from really spammy sites too. The kind that will link to anyone that provides a link back. Anyone else seeing much of this?

            Does blocking domains help remove bad links?

            I have affiliate websites that are harming for one of 2 reasons: 1. They are on adult websites (and I don't want to be in a bad neighborhood) or 2. They are using a Frameset (so their content appears identical to mine and I am getting "credit" for all their junk links) I cannot get these websites to remove our links so I have blocked their IPs on our production firewall. Is this an effective method or should I do something else with these links?

            Does the ratio of external nofollow links to external "do follow" links matter in terms of SERPs ranking?

            My site has an external link nofollow:dofollow ratio of approximately 1:1 That is, there are about as many nofollow external links as "do follow" external links. I have an impression that the ratio of no-follow to "do follow" links is a factor in the way that our website shows up in SERPs. I have the impression from reading a variety of sources, and from looking at Seomoz, that calculate "trust" factors as if they mattered (in SERPs), that seem to value a relatively low nofollow:dofollow ratio. Am I correct about that? Thanks,
            Tim PS - I don't know whether or not this matters, but our website is at: www.trustworthycare.com - Tim

            Does google scrape links from PDF files? do these links pass link juice?

            Does linking to a subdomain give link juice to the main domain?

            I have a few domains that I'm going to use for link building, will the link juice from the sub domains transfer to the main domain?

            Link Frequency

            I understand that good link building is all about the quality of the link / the anchor text attached to it. But, what about frequency? Should I build until I can't build anymore? or create a plan to submit links to a certain # of sites per week/month?
