Jean,
The more important question is how relevant a directory or association site is to the market your trying to target? Inbound link profiles require you have links coming from sites and directories that have a variety of performance indicators, from relatively low up to as high as you can obtain.
If that association is quite appropriate to your site's purpose and intent, not only do you get the benefit of relevance relationships, you can also potentially get people clicking through to your site from your listing there. Highly relevant people. Which itself is both good for business and a strong signal to search engines that it's a valuable link, and your site is important.

You might want to buy the membership if the site's DA is higher than yours. Also check to be sure the page your listing will live on has a high PA. Consider whether the site is relevant to your site and whether your listing is likely to drive qualified traffic to your site.

Community Consensus: Are These Good Links?
I recently used a firm to do 2 months of outreach as a test for quality of work. Their reporting process is monthly, which seems fair, but after the first month's report I was sorely disappointed with the targeted domains for links. Apparently, the firm decided to condense the two months of outreach in to 4 days, so by the time I was finally able to see the work, the "job is done." Again, extremely disappointed. The original SOW was to target set posts for outreach in month 1, review/adjust and move in to month 2. No dice. So, here I am now left with a list of sites that have been targeted for outreach, being told "they are quality sites." What do you think, am I missing something and these are truly good links? Below are just a very, very small sample of the outreach completed: http://www.vrml.k12.la.us/7th/homework/ss/student/addtional.htm http://healthyfoodsandmore.com/useful-links.php http://antique.vccc.com/links.htm http://cyberflapr.tripod.com/links.htm

In-depth/longform content DEFEAT backlink, DA/Trust score!
Hi all, There is a new way to defeat the big boys. Build a releated topic with minimum 4000 words and focus on in-depth content and use the target keywords more than 2,5% of each content. So its game over for linkbuilders and happy end for the copywriters? Ofcourse every factor of seo is important, but its better to focus on in-depth content. To score good with your target keywords in SERP. What are the challenges for a big webshop? Create a related deeply content? that separated from your webshop?

Link Removals (DA Damage?)
Hi, I am now working on a website with some rubbish links in their profile, which were created by the previous SEO Company. They are footer links from unrelated business websites. All authority from these links have been removed by Google during the latest updates and our SEOMOz DA went from 37 to 35 after the past Penguin update. My question is: Should I get these links removed or rather will we see any advantage to getting the links removed? Or should I just focus my efforts on getting a better link profile together using content? What I don't want to happen is to remove these not great links and then see a decrease even further of the authority. Thanks

Low PA high DA
I've been reviewing the PA and DA of news releases on PRWeb.com. While PRWeb has a very high DA=96, the vast majority of news releases have a PA=1, even those that are several months or several years old. 1. What is the affect of a follow back link with PA=1 and DA=96? 2. Although the vast majority of news releases have a PA=1, there are a few with a PA=40 plus. Further analysis revealed that these pages had one or two back links from other root domains. So, it appears that it is possible to boost the PA of your news release by linking to it from another root domain. Would it be advisable to link to your own news release from other root domains so as to boost the PA, and thus have back links to your site with a good PA and excellent DA? Best,

Recommended number of links on a single page to a different domain?
Hello fine SEOMOZ people, I have looked around and hope I have not missed an answer to this. The big picture: I know that when multiple links on a page point to the same external page, only the first link is considered for ranking purposes (at least for moz rank). What about multiple links on a page to (different) pages on the same external domain? The task: Using a client's network of sites to help build links (and advertise features) to the site they need optimised. The emphasis is on the usefulness of the info the the respective site's user but I am using the opportunity to create some meaningful anchor text links.The target site is feature rich and I could conceivavbly link to all the key site features (top level pages). However, my SEO spidey senses flagged the possibility that a few links on a page to the target domain (though to different pages on that domain), may carry more weight than many links on the page. I am talking about whether I can go ahead and put 10-15 links on a page to the key site features or whether I am (significantly) better off just selecting 2-5 key target feature pages and using other domains to link to the other features. Caveat: I think I am aware of all the peripheral concerns - not duplicating the page on other sites, varying the anchor text, not implementing the links all at once etc, etc.. Am I overthinking this?

Which parameter does google value more: number of incoming links or on-page optimizations (meta data and keywords)?
I am just starting with the SEO and I have a client in the travel industry whose website is not ranked well on the search engines. After doing the seo audit we see that the website's on-page optimization (meta titles, meta description, meta keywords and h1, h2, etc tags) is bad. At the same time there are very few incoming links into the website. These are the key 2 issues we found. In order to proceed most effectively, what do you think would be more effective to focus on first? Doing the on-site optimization or focusing more on the link building? Do the search engines, in particular, google - weight more either of these parameters? thanks so much for all your advice! all the best egle
