Where would we get the most bang for the buck? Fresh Content, Internal Links, or Schemas & Metatags
-
We cannot change the content on our website.And we have a lot of it.
Where would we get the most bang for our buck:
- Adding lots of fresh content;
- Linking Content Internally in ways that make the relationship between the content more clear;
- Creating schemas and metatags for the content.
Or something else that we haven't thought of. Our content is not really conducive to social. It is legal information.
We have a Domain Authority of 61 / 100
Your help and experience is appreciated.

- Adding lots of fresh content;
Great content is extremely valuable. Poor-quality content will harm your site in the Google rankings. Average content isn't worth much.
- Linking Content Internally in ways that make the relationship between the content more clear;
This should always be done.
- Creating schemas and metatags for the content.
Sarah Palin would ask if you are putting lipstick on a pig. If you have a pig then this is a waste of time. If you have great content then it is worthwhile.
My choice is add lots of fresh content but it has to be really good or you are wasting your time.

Should I focus on building links to my homepage, or internal pages?
I'm hiring several PA's to contact site's linking to my competition. Should we try to get links to content pages (blog post, article, etc) or build links directly to my homepage? More info: My site is a web application, so most links will naturally fall on the homepage. If links to content are more important we'll need to change our strategy. We are pitching the free version of the application to universities and schools as a resource for their students.

Why do internal, fake profiles on revebnation sit so high in their linking profile?
I was researching the link profile of Reverbnation to understand where they get most of their links from and a number of these fake reverbnation profiles showed up that seem to be about drugs- is this spam? Here are some examples: http://www.reverbnation.com/fan/tramadolfordepression http://www.reverbnation.com/page_object/page_object_bio/fan_1340318 There are about a dozen of these on their site. Super curious and would love any feedback or knowledge that may be out there! Thanks

Anchor text internal links
Hello, I read about a practice (also suggested by EasyWP SEO plugin) whereby I should place on my current page (call it page A) an internal link to another page (call it page B) using as anchor text the keywords I want page A to rank for. I dont really understand this and it is a cause of great confusion in my head... Can someone explain this to me and why this would be good practice? I would have thought that having as anchor text to page B a keyword I want page A to rank well for would steal juice from page A and give it to page B? Or am I missing something else? Thanks !

Any good content sites with good quality links?
I have some content which is still relevant and interesting but not really suitable for my current websites. I have been thinking of using this on an article site to generate some links back to my sites, but I am wary about this due to Google's targeting of content sites. I currently have good PR's on Squidoo and Hubpages which link back and work quite well. Can anyone suggest any others or any ideas how to use this content for SEO purposes? Is using it for article submissions to get links short sited?
