Does Anyone Know How Linstant Works??
-
I recently installed Linkstant after reading lots of great reviews. I'm eager to use the new tool, but I would like to know HOW it works. Does it send Google queries??
Just to give you some background info, I was recently burned by Rank Tracker...after using the tool it killed any access to Google and ruined a Google+ event that our company had planned. I do not want this to happen again, so I'd like to know how exactly it works.
Thanks!

Thank you, Eyepaq.
It didn't crash our Google usage here at work, so I'm assuming it works a little differently than Rank Tracker. Sounds like it works just like Google analytics would, but I have no evidence to back that up.

Hi,
It uses the same approach as Rank Tracker - normally you should be safe though but again - you never know.
The guys behind the tool are good though - they know their stuff - but with any "link building" related tool there is a thin line you are walking on.
Cheers.

Having issues with Redirects not working and old links on SERP
We just migrated a site and built a redirect map for Site A to B. If there were old redirects made for site A that weren't pulled when pulling internal links for site A, do those also need to be redirected to site B to eliminate a Redirect chain? Cannot figure out why old links are still showing up, does it take a few days for google to figure out these are not real pages?

CMS Auto Generated Sitemap Work Around?
Hey Moz Community, The Shopify ecommerce platform auto generates xml sitemaps and robots.txt for you. Frustratingly there is no way to augment either of these. If I noindex on a page it will still show up in the site map... Causing inconstancy with the sitemap submitted to GWT. In theory if put the MY version of the sitemap on site and point GWT to MY version.. Would this solve the inconstancy ? Or would Googlebot go in and still crawl the default /sitemap.xml anyway? Any suggestions and insight is greatly appreciated!

Ranked well initially, then experienced a significant decrease does anyone know why?
Hi Everyone, So I recently launched a new site a few months ago, and initially I ranked great for a number of terms I am targeting then rankings decreased significantly. In some cases, the pages targeting specific terms have disappeared from serps. Now I have heard about this "Honeymoon Phase" where google will give you a initial boost in rankings to test you out, and I have heard that they rank you higher initially based on a newness factor but can anyone offer insight into this? How long does it typically take to get back into the rankings? My site is build much better than the majority of my competitors and from what I can tell their link profiles are significantly superior to mine, but please help. Ie: http:luxuryhomehunt.com/homes-for-sale/longwood/alaqua-lakes.html key term: Alaqua Lakes homes for sale, Alaqua Lakes Real Estate Thanks in advance for your help!

Is there a work around for Rel Canonical without header access?
In my work as an SEO writer, I work closely with web designers and usually have behind the scenes access. However, the last three clients who hired me have web designers that are not allowing admin access to anyone else (including the clients) outside of their companies/small business. Is there a work around for the Rel Canonical element that usually is placed in the header? I am using All-In-One-SEO plug-in to address part of this issue. Sage advice or discussion on this is appreciated!

Can anyone recommend a good UK service provider for Dedicated Servers?
Hi, we have just had a shocking experience moving from shared hosting to a dedicated server with a very large service provider. Our website slowed down, the server has been down more times than up so we have moved back to shared hosting until we can find a supplier that can deliver. nightmare!! If anyone can recommend a good company it would be appreciated. Thanks
