Best way to create deep links - Building links to inner pages
-
I am looking for a cost effective way to rank 30 inner pages, which are all low competition, long tail keywords.
What type of links are the best for this type of project, social bookmarks, article marketing, high pr links, etc....
Also who would be good to hire for this type of project?

That's a pretty broad question, but two tactics that would work best, although by no means unknown, are internal linking and guest posting.
Internal linking is basic, yet so freakin effective. Everyone says you should, but few actually do it correctly. Hopefully you have a blog. When posting about anything, and I mean anything, tie in those pages to your conversation. Don't just randomly link to them, but make sure you steer the convo towards the topic of those pages so you can link naturally to them. (And yes, internal links work. One of my client's competitors is ranking #1 for a money term that ranks solely on internal links. Frustrating, yes, but more importantly, learn from it.)
Guest blogging is great in this instance because you're going for 30 different pages, which means you need multiple links from a single opportunity. In most guest posts you usually get at least two links in the bio, which you can use for any of those 30 pages, but like when doing internal linking on your blog, make sure you tie some of those pages into what you're writing about in the bulk of your post. For example, if one of your pages has some great information on biking helmet X, and in your post you're talking about biking, make sure you start talking about the different options you have for helmets, and say that one of these options is helmet X (which you link to). The blogger won't have a problem with this because it's on topic & relevant.
Hope this helps! By no means is this comprehensive. You can go a number of directions, but since you're building links to a bulk number of pages, these two tactics would be the most efficient.

Best way to get over the Hump (from page 2 to page 1)
Hello, I've recently been able to bring my site way up in the rankings for some very competitive keywords. I've done nothing spammy, and everything has been done with a lot of detail and a focus on only using the best techniques. My site is on page 2 for a lot of keywords. What would be your suggestions for getting over that hump and making it to page 1? I'm happy with my results (coming from pages 30-50 to page 2 over a couple of months) but I'm not satisfied and won't be until I can be on the top of page 1... Any suggestions are welcome... Thanks

Build links to home page or internal to rank internal pages?
I understand that naturally people link to the home page and internal pages - probably the home page more often than not. In order to build a natural looking link profile I also understand that I need a variety of anchor text, brand and url links. Should I be building links mainly to the home page with only a few to internal pages? Ultimately I want my internal pages to rank for specific terms so in my head it makes sense to concentrate my link building effort to internal pages but that would seem unnatural to google I'm sure. For arguments sake if I only built links to the home page with a mix of the anchor texts described above would these internal pages rank eventually anyway as 'link juice' flows throughout the site? Or is it an absolute must to build some links to internal pages. Could a page rank for a keyword without having any links to the site with the keyword anchor text (simply url links) based on the page title/content? Also what is a good ratio of home page to internal links? I would assume around 10:1? A lot of questions I know but I'm confused as to what will be the best strategy.

Finding email addresses: Link Building
We're going to have 50-100 useful, well-written articles and we want them to be linkbait, and to use them in our backlink campaign. I assume when doing a backlink campaign, it is very important who you send your email to. What are the best ways to find the right email address, and who/what am I looking for?

Local service site link building
I have a local service site http://winecountrycarpet.com/ and I have been link building as much as possible for my landing pages (which aren't local to my city, but are within 20 miles). I would like to keep my link building as above board and white hat as possible (so i do a lot of forum sigs and links in do follow forum in my industry) I do not seem to be seeing any results though. My pages are on the first page for their targeted keywords, but I think this has more to do with onsite SEO and non competitive keywords. I am wondering if anyone can recommend any strategies that I might find more effective. I have thought about leaving blog comments on do follow blog's but it just seems so spammy its hard to imagine it working. I am open to any ideas.
