Should I link to this site or is it too spammy?
-
Hi all,
I've been asked if I want to exchange links with http://www.myteetimesonline.com/ and I'm tempted but fearful that its link profile looks spammy.
What do you guys think?
I'm basically starting from scratch with my own site http://www.golfgear4you.com and have a Page Rank 0 and Domain authority 32. The guys that want to link to me are Page Rank 3 but Domain authority 35. Their content would be of interest to my site's users and vice versa but my biggest concern is their link profile looks awful because the sites that link to them don't appear to be very relevant.
I've done a lot of reading on this and have found the resources on this site to be a goldmine. The generally message is avoid easy links to spammy sites because they could hurt credibility.
I just want to check I've actually learnt something and my instincts about this site are correct.
i.e leave it alone!!
Thanks,
Andy

We do see some trashy sites linking to our sites. Nothing we can do about it and they often are scraper sites.
I don't think that inbound links from trashy sites will hurt you.
However, we don't do link exchanges and when we link out we only link to sites that are better than our own.

Thanks for the advice. One thing that confuses me with Link building is how you can safeguard against trashy sites linking to you. After all, you can't stop someone linking to your site, can you?

they're linking to casino sites so I would not link to them or even want a link from them.

Also, reciprocal links are dead, one way links pointing to your site is what you want.

Linking to high quality sites is a good way to earn trust from Google.
Linking to trash is a good way to lose trust and be penalized. Trash can be defined by content but more often by who they are linking to.
PR, DA, PA, etc are irrelevant.

Tool for discovering outbound links?
I want to find a tool where I can put in a url: www.site.com and it will tell me all the people that site links to. If this is in the Moz tool set, then I apologize. I couldn't find it. I can only find tools that tell me who links to a site, but not the other way around. Thanks, Ruben

How to approach link building/content in my weight loss coaching niche in a large scale way
Hello, I run a weight loss coaching business, bobweikel.com that is in it's early stages. I'm still working on making it graphically appealing I want to increase my number of national clients - it's coaching done over the phone or skype. I'm needing help analyzing my niche, specifically keywords, article content topics, link building tactics. I want to put a lot of time into it. Eventually I want to scale it up and hire other weight loss coaches and even SEO help. How do I get this dream going through gaining national clients online? There's not much traffic locally. I'm enough of an authority that, with enough time, I can create kickass content on the topics of weight loss and also the topic of NLP (NLP is the type of coaching I do, but it's little known) I'd like to add 5 best-of-the-web articles and a blog. Looking for advice. Would like to dream big. Tools I normally use (though I'm open to anything): OSE, Link Prospector, Excel Pivot Tables, Buzzstream, iPhone 5S video camera with tripod, youtube video embed, keyword discovery

Link analysis competitors
Am I missing something here or does SEO Moz only support three competitor sites to do comparisons against in each campaign? If not where do I add another website to the list to compare against? Thanks in advance!
