Backlink level of domain authority
-
Hi, we are trying to build on the number of good quality links.
One idea we had is to provide testimonials for a number of suppliers websites. Which would include a link from our company name back to our site.
Is there a certain level of domain authority we should only do this for? For example if a supplier only has a domain authority of 11 should we not get a back link?
Many Thanks

Maybe, it's more likely that they've simply moved to an updated, more sophisticated version. Generally speaking, PageRank above 4 is good. Also, try installing the MozBar and judging by Domain Authority or MozRank. For the metrics out of 10, look for 4 or above. Out of 100, 30 or above.

OK. The value of dmoz is not what it once was. Truthfully, If you've got a listing, it might be better to leave it as is vs. trying to get it changed. Google does have that page indexed so you might not get any more value out of moving it.
-
Thanks, we do appear in a category but it is a category on our own, maybe not the best one.
Our competitors appear in another category with lots more firms, DMOZ shows up in their link analysis.
I will request to be moved to another category which is more appropriate.
-
Be sure to return to DMOZ and verifiy that your site was added to that directory. There is no guarantee that you'll be listed.

Thanks.
There is one backlink which has not appeared to have worked. We registered our site with DMOZ a long time ago but it does not show up under our link analysis.
Have we registered it incorrectly? We appear on DMOZ (1st in the list below)

It won't have a negative impact, it will just have less of an impact than a domain authority 30 site. Also, you don't want to have to monitor for when that da 16 site becomes a da 50 site, so I recommend getting links (aka online relationships) from as many of those suppliers as possible on a consistent basis.
I agree with Searchbuzz and Chris.Menke above, that testimonial and link is going to be valuable to you and your business, especially when you continue to gain these one on top of another over time.
-
Thanks for your replies they really help.
I agree we can work with our suppliers, I have a good enough understanding now of SEO to be able to offer simple help.
If a supplier has a domain authority of 16 does it have a negative impact?
We have 28 linking domains and a DA of 16 is would be fourth from the bottom.
Many Thanks

Daniel,
I'm guessing that you didn't choose to work with your suppliers based on their pagerank and I submit to you that you shouldn't chose your supplier's back links based on pagerank, either. It is more than acceptable to develop the types of relationships you're writing about with your suppliers of all sizes and degrees of importance--just because they're smaller, doesn't mean growing that digital relationship isn't going to help your company or its website.

Backlinking question
Hello everyone! I currently work for a software company that sell's CRM software for product sellers and one of our options along with this service is a website builder option that can provide the client with a website with several different templates to choose from. Currently, we have over 500 clients using these website templates and I noticed that they are all under the same IP address. My question is, in terms of a backlinking effort, would it be beneficial if we included a link to our company's website on the footer on each of these templates? Example could be: Powered by: (company's name) and have the name a link to our site. I'm worried that this could be seen negatively by Google if we dofollowed these links or the fact that they are all under the same IP. Any suggestions would be appreciated! Thanks

Backlinks: What are they really and how can I create them.
I am relatively new to the SEO world, and I want to build backlinks linking to our main site. My preferred way to create backlinks is by adding them in my blog comments or forum responses. I am an active participant in a large number of blogs/forums related to our field and I would like to add relevant backlinks in the comments/answers I post. I originally thought that a backlink was just a link, but none of the links that I have added to blogs like that have been recognized as backlinks. https://www.dynaread.com/ Why is this so? I know now that good backlink would be something like: Dynaread is a science based dyslexia remediation program for older struggling readers. However I have no idea how to add this types of links to blog comments or forum pages where there is no link tool. Do I have to do something with HTML? Please explain briefly what a backlink really is and most importantly how I can create them. Thank you in advance for your help! Joy P.S if you have suggestions about some resources where I can learn more about the subject please let me know. I love to learn more.

Starting My First Backlink Campaign
Hi Team, I've started my first campaign and would like some advice on building backlinks. I have got the no. 1 competitor's backlinks through OSE. Here is the first backlink URL as mentioned in OSE. for them: www.uofaemergency.org/ (DA: 45 PA:44) However the backlink appears on another page of that domain, not on the homepage as it says in OSE. That backlinking page as a PA of just 1. Do I go for the homepage or the page on which the competitor's backlink appears? It is an unrelated site to the niche and the content in which the link appears is nonsensical. Does this matter as far as link juice is concerned? Is this a good site or page to get a link from? How do I go about getting an in content anchor text link from this site? What's the required process? I would like to start buidling good links asap and start to get rankings for my site. Thanks. Sunil.
