Link value
-
Hi
I have some links from blogs to our ecom website. My question is if anyone knows what happens if you have several different blogs on .blogspot linking in to you. Does that make them loose value because they are on the same domain? I can probably quite easily have 5-10 blogs on blogspot all with PA of 35-40 link in to us. Is it worth striving for or should i strive to get blogs that have their own domain to link into us instead ? Or equally important ?

Oh absolutely - not only blogs. I am starting to struggle though to come up with ideas as to which places to "aquire" links from. There are tons of catalogues but i am afraid to just add 10 of them at a time also.

It is for sure that the second link's value taht you get from a certain blog is slightly less than the first links value. First of all blogs are on a different subdomain. Subdomains are treated different than if you have links from more folders. Secondly, google owns the best engineers on Earth, i think they are quite are aware of the situation that a lot of blogs sit on the same root domain, however they have different owners. I personally did not do any tests according to this subject but this really has never been a question to me that these are treated as individual sites.

if the blogs are on different blogspot domains and they have seprate information than it will be fine.
Try and aim to acquire links from locations rather then just blogs

Hi Dan
There are potential pros and cons here:
Pro: those blogs on blogspot.com (Blogger) will be different sub-domains, e.g. example.blogspot.com and sample.blogspot.com Each one is treated as a seperate website, so they are essentially not on the same domain.
Con: a lot of blogs have NoFollow links by default, thus negating any link juice flowing out to your website.
So I wouldn't be concerned with a number of blogs all on blogspot pointing in to you. Though I would suggest ensuring that you have a healthy mix of Relevant good and high quality websites pointing to you on a variety of anchor text, best achieved by creating great content and distributing it well.
Also, check out a blog post published today on HubSpot entitled "The 8 Best Link-Building Tactics to Boost Off-Page SEO" questionable whether or not they are the best 8, though certainly some good ones there and it's worth a read.
Regards
Simon

What are the SEO value of revolving or rotating lists of links?
What are the SEO value of revolving or rotating lists of links? For example the links at the bottom of the homepage of inlandnwopera.com. The links are based in images and I am not really sure Google would pick them up but they do appear on ahrefs.com. Thank you.

AllTop Linking Me to Other Sites Feeds, Webmasters Reporting Lots of Broken Links
I submitted my blog to All Top awhile ago and something seems to be wrong with their feed. They're sending people to mysite.com/truth-o-meter.com/this-is-a-post. It's not just truth-o-meter either. I'm getting links that are supposed to go to all kinds of political blogs. As a result, I'm getting a ton of broken links reported on Google Webmasters. I couldn't find any real support option on alltop.com, and when I log in, there are no sites for me to manage. Instead, I resubmitted the site with the correct feed address and in the comments, I mentioned the problem. All I got was a message saying the site was rejected. I believe because I already added the site. But I'm thinking they didn't pay attention to the comments. (In fact the message may have gone through an auto-filter considering how quickly it was rejected.) Is there a way to solve this? Is this a situation in which I would use the disavow tool? If All Top continues to create bad links, how do I stop the issue once and for all? Thanks!

Links from same server or not?
Hello, I make websites so every website I make has a backlink to my website. Currently all my websites are hosted on server A, but my OWN website is hosted on server B. I plan to move my website to server A too. This will indicate that all the backlinks I have currently are from a difference server, now all these links will come from the SAME server. Will this have any results on my positions? Is this something that you have to take into account? Jeroen

Is there any link building value to design showcase websites?
I am interested to hear people's opinions on this. We are launching a microsite that is for branding purposes only, no real SEO strategy beyond optimizing for branded terms on it. However the design of the site is strong in my opinion. I think it could get picked up by "sites of the day" websites, showcases, galleries, etc. Would there be SEO benefit of in being featured on those sites since they tend to be curated lists of only the best sites and therefore editorial links? Or is there danger of those not being seen as quality links that could get you into trouble?

Doe anyone have any advice about allowing for back links on your website. Is there an optimum number that i should be mindful of if I'm going to add links to my site? Any advice would be much appreciated Thanks Pete

Disavow links
I am working on an account that has had several seo companies
Link Building | | JasperSEO
over the past year so around every corner I discover something new. One the
things I have found are that majority of links to the site is coming from an
outside blog but digging deeper I found that the blog is actually on the same
server as clients. Should I disavow links from that blog or should I leave it
alone?0
