Linkbuilding from different niche!
-
Hi Mozzers,
I have a small question.
If my website niche is Rent a Car, and lot of friends, people around the world, have restaurant, for example friend of me was a CHEF of restaurant for about 15years, and now he started working with Cars, how is danger if he receive backlinks from the restaurant websites?
Its this danger? can google penalize the site if receive backlinks from different niche,different cctld domains,and language too?
Thanks

thats what I do, keep a mix, try to get 80%+ close to the niche.

It's not a fine art. Google is far, far, far from perfect. Just build links as you would, just try to find places to post more niche relevant than your competitors, so you have the upper hand.

Just maked some competitor analyse, maybe 85% of backlinks, are from different niche. 15% image backlinks, 25% widget backlinks, 10% like article, and the rest only keyword with link on it or URL.
Why google doesnt penalise this pages?
-
Do you mean from 100 different domains, or completely backlinks.
Because i see here, he have more than 25,000 from 50 root domains, because their partner have placed the link to him at all pages.
And some of them arre on blogroll, on any right page of site the company name of this car website, and link, nothing more no descripton nothing.
Should i tell him to make a descripton about 50characters with keyword on it?

Google will not penalise you from getting links from different niches. The links will not carry as much weight as if they were from relevent content.
Google will penalise you if this is done in a spammy way. For example, if you all of a sudden receive hundreds of links from restaurant sites, where there is no context to your content, Googlebot is going to find this strange and potentially raise a flag against your site.

Opinions On Resource-Page Linkbuilding
Hi, I'm just looking to get some opinions on resource-page linkbuilding. These are links you would gain from sites when you use the following type of search operators: "keyword" + inurl:links
Link Building | | Tomwindham
"keyword" + inurl:resources
"keyword" + "helpful links"
... and so on... What do you think Google's thoughts on this subject would be when a large portion of the pages returned are long lists of links - usually these will be the title of the page linked to as well as either a bare link or an anchor text link. In some instances a short description of the page linked to would also be there. Are these long-term links that will continue to be relevant and worth spending time on for linkbuilding, or are these going to be see by Google as lower-quality links and potentially unnatural ? For example, Google's page on link schemes states; "Low-quality directory or bookmark site links" may violate their guidelines. Do you think that in some cases, resource pages may be seen as somewhat fitting this description? Thanks! [Edit] I have also found this comment from a Moz post 4 years ago, but cannot find any other reference to John commenting on resource pages: "A while back, someone asked John Mueller in a hangout about the benefits of getting a link on an outdated resource page and the answer was that if it is a link that never gets clicked on then it's probably not passing a lot of value."1 -
Is there a difference between .com backlinks and .co.uk?
(We are a UK based business) I am currently looking for sites for guest posting opportunities and I am not sure whether I should prioritize .co.uk sites or go for .com sites. Does it matter? Is more weight given to .co.uk sites if you are based in the UK?

Is it possible to do local SEO for 2 different business locations in same state?
Since you have to be consistent in all your review website information (business name, street, etc.) is it possible to have a website rank for both of their business locations which are about 50 miles from one another in the same state or do they have to pick just one location to promote offsite?

Should infographic relate to the niche?
There's been a lot of talk about using good infographics for natural inbound links and I'm curious if they should be related to the niche or can be just about anything? I mean I know it makes no sense to have a fun page about cats if you're selling cooking dishes online but I want to hear some input. What do you think?

Dripable.com and dripfeed.com. I really see no value whatsoever in any service like this. If anyone has an opinion that differs from mine. Go ahead.
I cant believe people are still using services like this. The interesting thing is that they do seem to offer great customer service, but that "service" seems to only spin comment spam and back profile backlinks. Id love for our community to discuss more sites like this so that Junior SEO's or people just starting dong get wooed by the promise of AWESOME links. Cheers,
