Case Study of Massively Successful Tool?
-
Hi, all. I'm working with a client and trying to come up with an example or two of a tool that attracted huge numbers of inbound links. What come to my mind is the original Zillow home pricing tool. When that came out, it kind of blew people's minds that you could put in any address in the United States and you'd get a (moderately) accurate assessment of a home value. If I recall, they got a bajillion links overnight.
I don't need an example quite at that scale (in fact, a smaller success might be better), but I definitely want something a little more recent (even if just the last five years).
Any suggestions for me? Much obliged.

Linking Domain vs Domain authority : Do they related!!!? (Case study)
Hi everyone
Link Building | | serikozay
I just came across a website which I'm working on. As we know DA & PA directly related to each other. I'm building organic links through last year and the result is so odd !
As you see in Pic 1, number of linking domains is naturally increasing. But in Pic 2 DA gets negative impact through this process and decreases!
How are they related anyway? Can anyone helps?

Google.com showing as backlink provider in Webmaster Tools?
Hi Everyone 🙂 Looking in the 'Links to your site' section of webmaster tools today and my top backlinking domain is google.com which is apparently giving me 113 links. The second top referring site is googleapis.com which apparently isn't even a site when I type it into my browser? Does anyone else get Google.com as a site linking to them? and why would Google be linking to us, where would these links be coming from? Any info appreciated 🙂 Regards
