SEO value to Reddit backlinks?
-
Can someone point me to an authoritative article on the value of Reddit links? I'm trying to determine if it's something we want to put effort into doing on a regular basis. Are reddit links followed? It seems like some are and some are not.
-
Is your content something that the Reddit audience would be interested in? If so, put effort into being a part of the community and help push some of your better pieces of content.
If you are only spending time on Reddit to attempt to get some link juice, I think you could put your time to better use to participating on other sites closer to your niche.
Use Reddit for the traffic and potential new customers/subscribers, not the link juice.

From what I can tell, Reddit nofollows links by default and sets them to follow if people vote them up. Any truth to this? I haven't been able to tell what the tipping point is though.
-
Yeah if you want to pay to advertise on reddit, they are follow. typically they are nofollows.

Does link have any value?
I recently received a link, but upon inspecting the page source on the site I did not see the link in the coding. Is this a link with any SEO value? Is google able to see this link? Note: Upon inspecting the actual link on the page, I do see coding with a followed link, but on the page source, only the actual table in which it is listed shows in the coding, with none of the content - including our link, showing.

My current SEO plan
Hello, I am new to SEO. I had this plan and understanding that I thought was a good one but seems to not be working as well as I thought. Basically I thought that showing for a keyword was based on how close you had a page on your site with a title tag to the search and how many quality links you had to your sites. Also the content had to be original. So I had two plans. The first was to make specifically high value pages on my site (what to do when you are stopped by the police) and then try to seek out links for those pages. My second plan was to make keyword specific pages for things in different cities. IE Car Accident Lawyer Brampton, Real Estate Lawyer Brampton, Find a lawyer Brampton. I hired some law students to re-write the same page basically with different language for every city, thinking that this would solve the duplicate content issue. This worked very well at first but for some reason yesterday all of my car accident city pages were de-indexed and I'm not sure why. http://www.lawyerconnection.ca/practice-areas/car-accident-injury-lawyers/ Very few other pages were de-indexed but I know that one of the find a lawyer pages was de-indexed. Also the page I linked above was not de-indexed, just the city pages linked from that page. I am not sure why the car accident pages were de-indexed. Too Similar to each other? Too similar to the slip and fall pages? (Any help on that much appreciated) Anyway I'm freaking out and now questioning the whole plan! Any thoughts on my whole general SEO plan would be much appreciate. Is this a good one? Am I doing something wrong?

Where do I get backlinks?
Three months ago I made the "foolish" decision to launch an insurance quote website (didn't think of looking into how competitive insurance websites were before investing my time, money and energy). Due to budget costs, I have been forced to learn about SEO. At this point I would say I am at the Peon level. lol. Today I signed up for SEOmoz and have found that my competitors have TENS OF THOUSANDS of backlinks. To logical people, this would be enough to throw in the towel. Not me. I'm stupid. I have spent many many hours over the last few months creating backlinks (at least I thought I was). However, I want to start targeting the sites that my competitors are using because they are getting anchor texts. How do I do this? How do websites create so many back links? Some of my competitors have 50,000 backlinks! I know this won't be done overnight. I appreciate all the help the SEOmoz community can offer a Peon like myself. One day I promise to pay it forward.

SEO Agencies
I'm eager to hear peoples experiences both good and bad with SEO Agencies. I have tried many. I'm particularly interested in hearing experiences of types of link building. In my experience many SEO agencies build low quality links, that at least in my view are unlikely to stand the test of time, with one or two expections.
