How many backlinks from one domain?
-
How many backlinks from one domain is too many? 1? 3? 10?
For example, directory listings. If you have 5 separate links to one website in lets say DMOZ (good for you!), is it really only "juicy" one time? Or each one just as awesome?
What about multiple guest articles on a related website? If I had 2 or 3 articles on one website that each have different contextual links, is it just the same as if I had one article?

There is no fixed limit to the number of backlinks you can receive from a single domain. However, it's generally more beneficial to have a diverse backlink profile from multiple domains rather than an excessive number from a single domain. Aim for high-quality backlinks from authoritative and relevant websites to improve your website's SEO performance and credibility.

The number of backlinks from a single domain to your website can vary widely depending on various factors such as the authority of the linking domain, the quality of the content being linked, the linking strategy employed by the domain owner, and more. There isn't a fixed number of backlinks from one domain that is universally considered ideal or excessive.
In general, it's beneficial to have backlinks from a diverse range of domains rather than concentrating too many backlinks from a single domain. While having multiple backlinks from a high-authority domain can positively impact your website's ```

@Cantor-Crane I'm pretty sure that only one link is needed per domain to get max SEO benefit.

Can I get 3 or more backlinks from one article page?

@Paddy_Moogan Thanks for this paddy

A simple reply to your question is Yes 2-3 articles from 1 domain have more weight than 1 article.
From my point of view, it is beneficial for Google as well as users also. If a site gives you the link for more than one time then it will increase the authority of your pages.
Also, you can able to get links for more pages of your website and it's also good for getting more referral traffic.
and it is easy to get links from those who already linked to your pages instead of starting a cold outreach,
Hope it helps.

Hello Paddy,
Thanks for chiming in! Yes these are all great feedback and I agree.
So what I am testing the theory is with posting a handful of articles (10-20 all unique) to high DA/MozTrust websites like HG.org, EzineArticles, etc... HubPages, etc. and probably around 2-3 as guest posts on other well ranking / trusted attorney sites.
Cheers!

Hi Aaron,
The advice from the other guys here is spot on in that it's more about the quality of the domain linking to you than the number of links coming from it. If it's a relevant link and makes sense for users, it's pretty unlikely that it would cause you any problems.
Just to chime in on this question:
"My question is, is it worth have 2-4 articles from one highly relevant website, or will 1 article have the same weight?"
To give you a concrete example, I've guest blogged here on Moz multiple times and each post has links to my site. The first time a link was found to Google would have had more impact than the subsequent ones, but the subsequent ones would still help me because of the trust and relevance that the Moz.com domain has to my own. It's just that these links probably won't be as powerful as getting brand new links from new domains to my website.
I hope that helps!

Yes we have been following that rule of thumb as well. We have been picky what sites are posting our articles.
Checking authority of the posting website's backlinks, checking spam score, MozTrust score, IP c-block, etc..
-
Yes it may be beneficial to have more than 1 article with link from the same domain.
As a rule of thumb, do it only if the articles on that domain are getting some internal juice.
And do it only with article targeting different keywords, and linking to different pages of your website.

Please keep in mind that I have absolutely no idea what you do and don't do or knew anything about your market until you replied.
But specifically, If you get a link from a site once, you gain all the benefit that Google is going to give you. Anything additional might have a very small benefit on a diminishing scale, but the general rule is that more than one link from a domain is all that is going to pass the majority of the benefit.
That's not to say that if you gain additional links that these won't help you in other ways.
There is a lot in the Google Raters Guidelines about E.A.T (Expertise, Authority and Trust) that Google use to gauge a site but I doubt that articles posted about the web are going to pass these messages on to them.
There is a huge discussion you can have around this subject before you finally come up with an answer to "are you doing your linkbuilding correctly or not"

That didn't really answer the question. Of course we do other methods of good link building. Yes, we do explain our expertise in the articles as well. Our firm has the most criminal case victories (over 4,000) and the most Board Certified Criminal Law Specialists of any firm in Arizona, to label an attorney as a specialists is a difficult task to achieve.
My question simply was is it beneficial to have 4 different articles with links from a relevant site, or just 1 article?
Also side note, that link you sent is over 4 years old, surely some aspects have changed over that time.
-
it sounds to me like they really don't know what they are doing.
Look at your market - what is being searched for? What is getting shared well? What is inviting natural backlinks? Are there any on-going questions? Are you pitching yourselves as experts, and if so, are you proving this?
There is so much more to link building than posting an article, so I would try not to focus on what others are doing, but look at the current winners and do something better than them.

Thanks for the posts guys! I agree about the relevancy of the links is the main factor.
What brings up the question is we have other websites across the US in the same practice area as us that will post 2-4 guest articles with contextual links.
My question is, is it worth have 2-4 articles from one highly relevant website, or will 1 article have the same weight?

Hi,
Have a read of this Whiteboard Friday where Rand talks about this exact issue - Number 1...
_Number one: I'm worried because I have too many links pointing to my site from one particular domain. Maybe it's a site-wide link. Maybe they just embedded you in their blogroll, and it's linking to you. This isn't a problem unless the links are coming from a highly manipulative source, in which case you'd hope they weren't linking to you anyway. But I wouldn't stress too much about it. I'll get to people pointing bad links to you in a second. If you have 80,000 links pointing to you from one particular site, don't stress. This isn't going to kill your SEO. It's not the end of the world. If there's a good, editorial, natural reason why those links should exist, it's probably going to help you. What it won't do is help you 79,000 times more than if you just had a few pages on there, but it will help. It's not a terrible thing. Don't panic. I would almost never worry about this unless the links are from particularly terrible, spammy pages, in which case you might sort of worry, right? _

Hi there
There really is no right or wrong answer to this but the real question you should be asking is the following: are the links that are pointing to your website from another site relevant and helpful to those who see it?
Having a bunch of links from a site isn't necessary if it's not relevant to your site, or if they are just strewn about in random categories. I will take one really good link over 100 redundant links any day.
So just make sure whatever links you are getting are actually beneficial and useful to those seeing it. If it's not relevant or helpful, or just a bunch of links, then chances are they aren't worth having.
I actually have more points here that you can read - https://mza.bundledseo.com/community/q/about-link-building-in-2015#reply_290945
On my phone and can't link! Will update that when I can, sorry!
Hope this helps! Good luck!

I have created a simple website, but one of the panels moves
All right, I've created a simple website (http://fontvilla.com) and I have had a problem for personal reasons. When you execute the code below and see the whiteboard at the right-hand side labeled as the.newsLetter and change the screen size, it moves away unlike that I have just floated right above. But if I float this one right then it floats to the middle of the screen, so works as I want it. In order to do that, I am going to make this reactive, and need to have it like the one above.

How difficult is it to rank an exact match domain nowadays in 2017?
Hey there Mozzers! It's been a while since I've been back around these parts after working at a search agency many moons ago. I remember way back how it was stupidly easy to rank for something like "date ideas toronto" when I had an exact match domain www.cheapdateideas.ca and dateideas.ca (which I still own). Anyhow, I've been looking to build up my domain www.dateideas.net with hyper local date ideas and essentially looking to build this for the long term and expand after I hit a certain critical mass in terms of high quality content mostly written by myself to start. Eventually, if it makes sense, hiring authors or getting guest contributors to contribute to the blog if there's enough incentive to do so (which I'll figure out at some point). Question for y'all for a newbie that was semi-pro and now all my knowledge from before isn't so cutting edge. How would you guys approach it. I am looking to build this for the long haul, so it may very well be that some of your answers are "write amazing content", I'll be okay with that answer. Cheers, Will

Google plus page multiple domains
Hi I have had a .com domain for many years linked to my google plus page and local verified to my UK office address. This site sells and advertises my products, some of them are uk only like the school and computers I sell and the rest are digital and world wide. I decided to start a .co.uk domain to be more targeted to the uk and advertise only the school and computers which I sell to the uk and just link to the .com for digital products. I want the .com domain to attract world wide customers and the .co.uk for uk customers. What do I do, does it make sense to connect my google plus business page to the .co.uk site? Should I still have a google plus page for the .com site? I only have 1 office and thats in the uk. Not sure what to do here. I dont want to lose rankings or do anything negative. Thoughts? Thanks.

What is the optimal approach for a new site that has geo-targeted content available via 2 domains?
OK, so I am helping a client with a new site build. It is a lifestyle/news publication that traditionally has focused on delivering content for one region. For ease of explanation, let's pretend the brand/domain is 'people-on-the-coast.com'. Now they are now looking to expand their reach to another region using the domain 'people-in-the-city.com'. Whilst on-the-coast is their current core business and already has some search clout, they are very keen on the city market and the in-the-city domain. They would like to be able to manage the content through one CMS (joomla) and the site will deliver articles and the logo based on the location of the user (city or coast). There will also be cases where the content is duplicated for both regions. The design/layout etc. will all remain identical. So what I am really wanting to know is the pros, cons and ultimately the best approach to handle the setup and ongoing management from an SEO (and UX) perspective. All I see is problems! Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks,

Duplicate content question for multiple sites under one brand
I would like to get some opinions on the best way to handle duplicate / similar content that is on our company website and local facility level sites. Our company website is our flagship website that contains all of our service offerings, and we use this site to complete nationally for our SEO efforts. We then have around 100 localized facility level sites for the different locations we operate that we use to rank for local SEO. There is enough of a difference between these locations that it was decided (long ago before me) that there would be a separate website for each. There is however, much duplicate content across all these sites due to the service offerings being roughly the same. Every website has it's own unique domain name, but I believe they are all on the same C-block. I'm thinking of going with 1 of 2 options and wanted to get some opinions on which would be best. 1 - Keep the services content identical across the company website and all facility sites, and use the rel=canonical tag on all the facility sites to reference the company website. My only concern here is if this would drastically hurt local SEO for the facility sites. 2 - Create two unique sets of services content. Use one set on the company website. And use the second set on the facility sites, and either live with the duplicate content or try and sprinkle in enough local geographic content to create some differential between the facility sites. Or if there are other suggestions on a better way to handle this, I would love to hear any other thoughts as well. Thanks!

Has anyone had any success buying a local domain website, getting it on first page and then selling it to a local business? I have found some good domains that this might work for but I am wondering if anybody has tried this before.
I would like to buy a local domain like scottsdalepaintingcontractor.com and then seo it to first page before I sell it. Has anybody tried such strategy?
