      We are a UK business and if we have links mostly from US based blogs and websites does this penalise us.  The links are from relevant websites and topics.  Should we be focusing on .co.uk sites

        Hi,

        Hope this clarifies.

        It is not a penalisation, your links are telling to the algorithms of the search engines that your website is popular in the USA and not so popular in the UK.

        If your only target market is UK, not delivering to USA; At least 75% of your links should be local, related to the topic, low spam score, dofollow, hopefully PA over the one you are targeting and DA also over your website´s DA. Good luck!

          Is tiered link building a good thing?

          I think that I have watched all the webinairs and online courses available on the web, but I still don't seem to know how and where to get links from. I know what type of links I should be getting and what type I should be avoiding, but that little luck so far. I came across the website of Matthew Woodward about tiered link building where he explains how to do this type of link building in depth. It seems quite interesting but also a lot of work so I don't want to invest my precious time in something that will be penalised by Google in the near future. Is there anyone that can give me some reason why I should or shouldn't do this?

          How do I build links for an Auto Detailing Company?

          How do I go about building links for my website www.capitolshine.com Are there places I don't want to have my links? How do I know? How do I reciprocate? Where would I put a link on my website without looking like I'm just selling out to anybody who asks? And how do I actually put the links on my site? Do I need a separate page?

          Linking strategy between my own sites

          Hi, I have one main site, let's call it  food.com I also have 10 smaller sites, let's call them   mexicanfood.com, indianfood.com, italianfood.com etc food.com is on its own separate dedicated server the 10 smaller sites are all on a shared IP in hostgator I don't want Google to think that I have created the 10 sites for only purpose of creating links to each other. So, would you recommend that all those 10 sites link to each other? or should there be no interlinking within those 10 same IP domains? What about linking from those 10 sites to my main site? How should I structure my own backlinks not to get penalized by Google ?

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