Thanks so much for taking the time to clarify - will certainly be looking into this further.

Thanks so much for taking the time to respond - I certainly agree with your re: manual checking (I do a lot of manual stuff for SEO, it makes me feel more in control of the process) - although I do find that when tools can support the findings it provides reassurance.

I usually stick with the tried and tested main Directories (yelp etc) and avoid paying for anything, but a new client has some questionable links from sites with half decent domain authority (which is why I am looking to back up my thought process).

Thanks again for your feedback.

Hi - has anyone used scamanalyst.net as a research tool? If so, do you have any thoughts on how reliable the site information is?  My thought is to use in conjunction with Open Site Explorer (in the process of tidying up a clients' questionable site links).  Thanks so much.

A client would like to set up a knowledge base to work in conjunction with their website and we are tossing up whether to go with a hosted solution (and therefore set up as a subdomain) or find a solution that we host on the clients domain (which will presumably have more SEO benefit).  We are leaning towards the latter (although are mindful that we need to balance the client’s desire for a quality KB solution).  Appreciate your feedback.

Thanks so much for taking the time to clarify - will certainly be looking into this further.
