Error on Incoming Links report
-
On a client site https://compassionateleaders.co.uk/ Incoming links is reporting a domain link from Huffingtonpost.co.uk amongst 30 others.
However when I review Inbound Links it is showing Zero results.
How is this possible? Is there an issue in the system?

@Marketing_Optimist The discrepancy between reported incoming links and zero results in inbound links can be due to:
Data Indexing Delay: There might be a delay in updating.
Link Removal or No-follow: The link might have been removed or marked as no-follow.
Data Synchronization Issues: Parts of the tool may not be fully synchronized.
Filtering and Display Settings: Filters might be hiding the links.
Canonical Issues: The link might point to a different version of the URL.
Tool-Specific Limitations: The tool might have its own criteria or bugs. -

How is this possible? Is there an issue in the system?Discrepancies between reported incoming links and actual inbound links could occur due to various reasons. It's possible that the data reported in the Incoming Links section hasn't been updated recently. Different tools and systems have varying refresh rates for data updates. Some links reported in the Incoming Links section might be from low-quality or spammy websites, which might not be considered valid inbound links by the system. Additionally, the tool might not have crawled or indexed all the inbound links yet, as it can take time for search engines and link analysis tools to discover and index new links pointing to a website. There could also be discrepancies or inaccuracies in the data reported by the tool, as automated systems sometimes misinterpret or incorrectly attribute incoming links. If you suspect there's an issue with the system or the data being reported, it's a good idea to reach out to the support team of the tool or service provider for further investigation.

Spammy links
Hi I was reviewing a clients link profile and found a lot of the links they have pointed at their domain have the anchor text "Buy Viagra" or "buy viagra online" and similar. Now the website has absolutely nothing to do with this kind of business so no doubt these links are spammy. To my knowledge the website has not been penalised by Google so far. Is it best to disavow or just leave alone? Kind Regards

Using an SEO Agency to build one-way links for you via link exchange
There are a number of SEO agencies which offer link building as part of their SEO offerings. I believe they build one-way links to the client site, by offering another link in exchange to the liking site. So, if the client site is "C", and link is being requested from site "A", the site "A" owner is offered a link from site "B" in return. Is this a good and/or recommended practice?

New ways to get links (excluding on site link bait)?
Fellow SEOs, I’m looking for a new way to reach out to bloggers and site owners for links. There are quite a few link bait techniques to lure bloggers thanks to = amazing content, infographics,...but there are not so many articles on ways to contact bloggers/webmasters and ask for links... We all know that contacting site owners directly and politely asking then to place a link on their home page is as useful as a comb in Bruce willis’s hand. Link exchange is as dead as the Dodo and business partner links are usefull and easier to get but opportunities are often limited. I have been organizing contests for bloggers recently and it has been quite successful up to now, but I always like to have a spare trick up my sleeve. So if any of you have a decent method to reach out to bloggers/webmaster and get decent links please let me know, I will be forever thankful ; ) Cheers
