No Follow Blogs. Do they help with keyword density?
-
I know no follow blogs don't pass page rank or link juice, but do they aid in help with making your site know for a specific keyword when you use anchor text?

My apology , but i disagree only on one thing
"... you can almost guarantee yourself ..."
On a topic that is perfectly on grey zone like this (where not even the Google Webmaster prohibited it directly) , i know that i wont be able to guarantee it myself (even when it is backed with huge amount of correlated data)
All I am saying is, PERHAPS based on the correlation data made by mad scientist in SEOMOZ, the effect for links coming from Comment on Blog is not correlated to high rank , but as said by many correlation is not causation .. Again many on-going debate is running for this kind of discussion but no one can say "i guarantee it " (unless if uncle google decided to participate in this discussion himself) xD
my 2 cents

I definitely wouldn't guarantee blog commenting won't get you high rankings if you comment on quality do follow pages related to your niche. I have multiple sites that have first page rankings, some #1's with a great deal of blog comments. Not a practice I recommend as a full fledged strategy, but it is helping pages and rankings. As long as your comments are not spam and contribute to the conversation constructively they are definitely worth the time and you learn more about your industry along the way.

No. But not because of no follow, because it's a comment on a blog. If it's a super easy link to obtain you can almost garuntee yourself that it:
-
won't have much effect on your rankings.
-
isn't worth your time
-
-
Search engines definitely want to see a "healthy balance" of do-follow and no-follow links, so some no-follow anchor text from relevant, authoritative, non-spammy sites is good. Certainly can't hurt.

A lot of blogs use wordpress or blogspot, are these blogs still useful for SEO in terms of linkbuilding, or should they be avoided?
I am very new to linkbuilding and SEO as a whole, so please forgive my ignorance. Reaching out to bloggers is a common tactic, but I've found a lot of people tend to blog with the assistance of wordpress or blogspot. I was wondering whether these blogs are still useful for SEO or if it is best to avoid them? Thanks in advance, Lewis

Adding keyword to your url
Couldn't find the answer to my question anywhere so I'll give it a try here. If you have a site called www.example.com, and then want to add a keyword to this site, like this: www.example.com/keyword How do you add a keyword to your url like this? Without making the URL with the keyword your "main" URL, meaning you don't have to enter the keyworded URL to get to the homepage (www.example.com), and still rank better on the keyword put in the url. I'm a bit confused on the subject, would love for someone to help me understand! Thanks.

Looking for some help on disavow
I received a message from Google WMT on July 23rd about unnatural links to my site. And my ecommerce site suffered a big drop on sept 29th about 70% drop in organic traffic. My it guys have discovered that our past seo companies placed ton of bad links to our site. we have contacted lots of these companies for 3 weeks after we lost our traffic to remove their links. Some of them did remove them i believe and most of them did not even reply back. We have learned about the disavow tool in 3 rd week in Oct after that we have compiled the links and submitted the file on Oct 22nd and submitted a reconsideration on Oct 23rd. We got a reply back on Nov 12th saying that "Specifically, look for possibly artificial or unnatural links pointing to your site that could be intended to manipulate PageRank. Examples of unnatural linking could include buying links to pass PageRank or participating in link schemes." I did not participate in any link schemes or otherwise suggested practice here. So my question at this point is, is it possible that google' quality team did not see the file or did not take it in to consideration. How long would it take this tool to work? is there an example of this file where i can see how the format should be if any different than how we had it. my site is goldenageusa.com Thank you

Paid Blog Posts getting Deindexed?
Hello, We've used a popular paid blog posts platform to get back links through blog posts. Recently, performed a link audit noticed a very interesting problem. 40% of the 49 sites we purchased paid posts from, have been de-indexed. These blogs are the kinds that would take money from almost anybody in any given niche to write a review and give a paid link to you. So, I assume most of these blogs had a high number of outbound links. Their page rank has also been demoted to 0 (obviously since they're deindexed). Now, our dilemma is that should still go ahead with paid blog posts, after checking for the following: 1. PR 2. Google Penalty The sites at the time of purchasing the posts were not penalized. But 40% of the sites being completely de-indexed is a staggering number. Can someone please suggest whether to go with paid blog posts techniques or not?
