How best to gain Followed Linking Root Domains?
-
Hi All,
Sorry if this question has been asked before. I've had a look through the Q&A sections and I couldn't really see anyone who'd asked the question as direct as this?
Basically, I'm using the SEOMoz competitive domain analysis to compare some of our domains and our competitors domains and see where we're falling down. At the minute, we seem to be only scoring around '31', whereas our two closest competitors as 32 and 33 on the overall score. This still seems pretty low to me (maybe it's not) so I'm assuming we can make some good headway.
At the minute, the analysis shows that we're beating our competitors hands down with the number of links to our site, these are all relatively good quality and they haven't just been spammed out there to gain links.
We are however struggling to get followed linking root domains. As I understand it, these are basically just links from domains not on the same IP that are followed?
Since I've seen this, I've looked through the open site explorer and gone through all of our competitors sites to get backlinks from URL's linking to them. I've had fairly good success with this but they only seem to have gone up by 1 - 2 links. Does this only get updated once a month?
In addition to this, does anyone have any tips on how to build up followed linking domains?
Kind Regards

Thanks for the replies!
Yeah, I assumed they might take a few months to update as the pages may not be indexed straight away, so I'll hope that's the case.
I've written some good content on our Blog that should filter through and sent out a press release today that's gone out to 10,000+ people via PRWeb. I'm hoping that will build up a few links and create a discussion of some kind on our blog but we'll have to see.
Thanks for the tips so far, if anyone else has anything to add. Please let me know.
Cheers
Lewis

Yes, this actually might take a few months depending on the site linking to you. And as EGOL has pointed out, great unique content, then promote it. I would add promoting in social networks as well. Always include ShareThis and Facebook LIKE on each page of content as this will help people share the content.

Create best-on-the-web content for the most popular topics in your industry niche, then promote them to the bloggers, professional associations and authority websites who cover that niche.

I am trying to find inbound links for one of my site urls. My question is does SEOMoz able to track all internal links as the Open Site Explorer shows 0 internal links?
It shows 0 internal links when I am pretty sure we have multiple internal links.Should we use absolute urls or relative urls for internal links?

Keywords Best Practices for On-Page Optimization
Hi guys, we've successfully optimized our home page such that it receives a Grade A for 3 completely different, high traffic keywords. Looking forward to seeing the results! The keywords in question were identified by using the monthly searches reported from the Google Keyword Tool. For one of the keywords, the Google Keyword Tool differentiates between what I thought would be seen as being the same. For example, let's say Google reports these three keywords as high traffic keywords: tea cup

tea cups
the tea cup Using the On-Page Report Card, we get a Grade A for 'tea cup', but we get an F for the other 2 terms! I thought Google searches didn't really care about the plural form or adding the word 'the' in front. How should we interpret the result from the On-Page Report Card for the plural form of the keyword and with the word 'the' added in front? Would you track all 3 instances of the keyword independtly in your campaign, or would you just track 'tea cup'? Thanks!0 -
