Go to GWT and check "link to your site" for ratio that make no-sense. See attached image.Go to GWT and check "link to your site" for ratio that make no-sense, like in this image.
Contact the infected link webmaster and ask him to remove your link, probably from the footer, or for the blogroll (WordPress). Read what to do more at http://www.seomoz.org/q/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&query=remove+links&x=0&y=0

How Does Dynamic Content for a Specific URL Impact SEO?
Example URL: http://www.sja.ca/English/Community-Services/Pages/Therapy Dog Services/default.aspx The above page is generated dynamically depending on what province the visitor visits from. For example, a visitor from BC would see something quite different than a visitor from Nova Scotia; the intent is that the information shown should be relevant to the user of that province. How does this effect SEO? How (or from what location) does Googlebot decide to crawl the page? I have considered a subdirectory for each province, though that comes with its challenges as well. One such challenge is duplicate content when different provinces may have the same information for some pages. Any suggestions for this?

Local SEO and Penguin
All, One of my client's sites was hit by Penguin. The business has lost almost all of its organic rankings but is still holding on for a handful of local searches for some of its satellite offices. We've built a new site and are slowly building domain authority. My question is this: at what point do I swap out the new site's location URL for the old URL in Google places? I don't want to risk the existing local placement which is all they have left for the time being. Thanks, John

Specific Link Page in Domain
Hi everyone: I have seen that many SEO Agencies have contacted my business (Also SEO but In- House) in order to interchange links. They have created a specific page on their site with the Label "Links" or similar, and on that page they add multiple links of the competence. I have heard that you can only do that if you make sure you add two things: No follow in links. Not inserting links of websites that have nothing to do with our sector. Either way, I have never found this amusing. I always recommend people not to do this but I have my doubts after all. ¿Could some one give me their opinion? Cheers !

Global ecommerce domain redirecting to country specific TLD
We have a large ecommerce website xyz.com that redirects to xyz.ch. Recently the group expanded to India and they have launched a website called xyz.in. Depending upon the ip address, xyz.com redirects to xyz.in (for Indian audience) and redirects to xyz.ch elsewhere. Now xyz.in wants to rebrand themselves as xyz.com. To achieve this, we are planning a full-fledged, step-by-step, planned domain migration from xyz.in to xyz.com. We have two scenarios now. 1. xyz.com will continue to redirect to xyz.ch only in czech republic (depending upon ip) 2. xyz.com will cease to redirect to anywhere else. Can you advise us on the implications on both the scenarios? What's your best suggestion for us? It's slightly urgent. The management wants to take a quick action. But we want to be very sure about the implications from SEO point of view.

Google Quality Algorithm Update
I'm curious what correlations or impacting variables SEO professionals have found that have increased or decreased ranking with the most recent algorithm change. It appears that many innocent sites have fallen victim, especially larger sites. It also appears that Google is maintaining that specific sites were not targeted... Meaning there must be proven characteristics.
