Are these links helping
-
Hi, We have had a few new links for a client and we are hoping that we can get some feedback on whether these have any link juice. We dont want to waste our time with links that dont benefit the website. Thanks

Hi there,
There is a lot more to this question which probably goes outside of Q&A, but here are a few points on the links that you've shared:
- The blog posts don't appear to be written by real authors, they appear to be blogs that are made just to link to Results Plan, so while they may pass some link equity, I'm not sure that they are going to be seen by Google as high quality
- The anchor text used on all links is clearly keyword driven. This in itself isn't necessarily a big problem (the whole link profile would need looking at to assess that) but again, it implies that the blogs are built just for link building purposes
- The blogs don't appear to be getting much engagement such as social shares and comments which indicates that they may not get a lot of traffic, so you're also unlikely to get real traffic clicking through to the website
Overall, as I said, more work would be needed to make a full assessment, but looking at these sample links, I'm not sure I'd be recommending building lots of links like this.
Hope that helps.

Hi Carrie,
You can use tools such as Moz's Link Explorer to vet the quality of these links. I would also make sure they're topically relevant to your client's site. If so, you're probably okay.
Best,
Paul

Do links from between common sites you run count as "bad" links?
Hi everyone,
Link Building | | AMA-DataSet
Iv recently been asked to review a group of sites. There are 3 sites, each of these sites has a link to the other two sites within the footer or the navigation.
These site are about a similar topic each provides a different perceptive or aims at a specific section of the industry so its not like the links are to irreverent sites. However because the links are in a global section they are repeated thousands of times on each site and count for a large proportion of the link profile to each site, I don't think this is good practise and I want to remove them or at least add a no-follow but my client insists they are relevant to each other and doesn't not want the links removing. What would be best in this situation? remove them? no-follow them? or leave them? Thank you in advance,

Links from **searchengines.com
Looking at the list of linking domains in Webmaster Tools I have come across 36 from domains similar to **searchengines.com or .net, where ** is a number. They are all duplicates and get their data from DMOZ. I'm cleaning up the link profile and my question is should I be concerned to get these cleaned up especially as I have some more serious links to clean out and possibly need to use disavow? Actually if I need them removed and the sites state I have to go through DMOZ to do so is that good enough for Google to understand that I can't really manually remove these links and I can proceed to disavow them?

Footer Links And Link Juice
I'm starting to learn about link juice and notice in GWMT > Traffic > Internal Links, that the list is in this order by the links counted on each page. Some are in the footer and some are in the header, with some being more important than others commercially i.e. /register /privacy /terms /search /sitemap /disclaimer /blog /register So I am wondering if I should add a 'no-follow' attribute to the footer links i.e. privacy, terms, disclaimer and leave the others as they are? Does this help retain link juice on each page where the links appear? Or am I missing the point all together? This is my website: http://goo.gl/CN0e5
