Question on getting new site with poor URLs indexed
-
For the website www.misslovegirls.com , with URLs like http://www.misslovegirls.com/goods.php?id=3706 is there any chance of getting these URL's indexed?
Thanks!

Well, that URL is already indexed, so that answers that question!
But you're walking into a bit of a minefield in this one.
These URLs have also been indexed:
http://www.misslovegirls.com/goods.php?id=3704
http://www.misslovegirls.com/goods.php?id=3705You're going to have a big issue here with duplicate content. You're pretty much serving the exact same page multiple times (with the only difference being price/size/title, from what I can see, which isn't going to be enough of a difference).
My advice would be to make one product page per item (ideally with a descriptive URL, not just numbers) that includes the different sizes and colours within the page. Furthermore, you're going to need a lot more descriptive content per product to ensure that there is enough content on the page for Google to register it as unique.
Now in theory, there's nothing stopping you from indexing and ranking a URL with numbers/queries high up in Google. URLs in keywords in them are probably a bit more SEO and user experience friendly, though not absolutely essential.
I just think you have a bigger issue on your hands here - your product pages are currently too thin and will likely be seen as duplicate by Google. I imagine you will want to rank these pages, so adding "noindex,nofollow" to the pages won't solve the problem. You're only alternative, therefore, is to make sure that each product page is descriptive enough to be seen as unique (300-400 words as a very rough guideline) and that all variants of the product, such as size or colour, are not on separate URLs, but on the same page.

New Penguin
I just read that a new Penguin might be coming up. My question is : Can you rank if you have good content but bad links ? In other words does the content quality take over the link quality or will google penalize you for the quality of your links even though your content is great and deserves to rank ? Thank you,

301 redirect from a de-indexed site
Is link juice passed from a website that has been intentionally de-indexed by webmaster? The scenario is I had 2 websites with similar content. I decided to get rid of one by de-indexing. I also did a 301redirect from my de-indexed site. Not the whole domain but just the 2 URL's which I believe could pass on link juice. In this case how long the link juice would flow via 301 redirect?

Should I work with current site or start a new site with more keywords?
I have been working with my site for some time. Sadly, I am moving lower and lower in ranking. I am wondering if I should just transfer my site to a new URL (this time including keywords). I don't understand the whole disavow link thing. I hired someone about 2 years ago, when I lost my ranking due to malicious software. Well, it turns out that, she submitted my link to weird sites that I don't even know what they are. It is like sites with thousands of websites just listed. Things have never been half of what they were and I am really just growing frustrated. I understand that having an a URL for awhile is helpful, but I appear to have lost many of my good linking sites. Any thoughts?

DA of External Link Sites
Curious as to how you separate a "good" link from a "bad" one. I go through Open Site Explorer and see a variety of sites linking to our page. Some have good Domain/Page Authority and others do not. When looking for links, where do you determine whether a link from a specific page will help/hurt you in terms of their DA/PA? Translated another way: How much DA/PA does a site/page need to have before you decide it will pass good link juice to yours via a link?

Open Site Explorer
Typically when using Open Site Explorer to analyze links, how long does it take for them to show up? I have some links that are on high page ranking sites, yet they still do not show up with the Open Site Explorer. Thank you

So I ran into a site that was not ranking 4 days ago and has over 2 million links to it on some keywords. My guess is this is a link bomb, but the issue is this is pushing one of my sites down. Does anyone know a good way to over come a bomb like this?
So I ran http://www.riogrande.com/ into this site not that long ago and wanted to see if any other SEO's have an opinion on it. I've seen a Google bomb before, but the amount of links going into this URL is insane. The thing is how does one over come a Google Bomb? Do you just wait to see what Google does or do you just hope to rank under that URL? I should also note that it appears that all the keywords to it are relevant to the sites content. Let me know your thoughts. Thanks
