Social Signals Question
-
Hello,
If I have a landing page which contains great content to the point where social sharing happens though likes, tweets, plus's etc, how do you then use this to effect rankings on your target page?
I would be inclined to leave the page to gather social shares and anchor text link to the target page.
Any thoughts? Basically landing page with some good content that gets shared, now what?

Encourage your users to engage with you by leaving comments or publishing on their own blog.
Social buzz generally gives some authority to rankings only because people are interacting with the content. And when users/readers interact, the content is usually good or engaging. Thus this will usually get more attractiveness to the webmasters that wish to link back to your article to give you more authority as well.
Social sharing is one metric but the effects of social media is another thing.

SEO Training Question
Hi Iv been asked iv to host a basic SEO training session for some employees who have never had any experience in SEO before. Obviously SEO covers so many things and it would be imposisble to run through everything in a single training session. I was curious as to what you guys think would be the best use of the time for the training session? Thanks in advance

I am having some back-links to my site that look like: http://site.com/page.html**?source=a**
http://site.com/page.html**?source=b** I assume these two will have two different ranks, is this issue fixed if I use canonical on the landing page? Thank you.0 -
Internal linking question
How important is internal linking from body content? If you have 500 words of content on each page is it good practise to try and get a few links in to other pages? Surely if you do this your pass more juice out of the page, which might lead to devaluing the page in the SE's.

Should Penguin makes me question all reciprical links, even relevant ones?
Prior to Penguin, I had begun a link building campaign of sorts for a tourism bureau. All it was designed to do was leverage a wealth of relevant link opportunities that were right under our noses...the bureau's own members. These restaurants, hotels, attractions, etc are extremely relevant web sites with respect to the tourism bureau's target and niche. The links were to be in the form of image badges stating "Proud member of..." with brand-only alt text and title tags. I will focus on keeping these links a reasonable percentage of the overall domains linking into the site, I will vary the alt text throughout, and cultivate the links slowly over a 5-month period. But since the bureau's site already drives traffic to these individual member sites, the links we cultivate will end up being reciprocal. Even though they are natural in the purpose they serve, should we be worried, and consider abandoning the program?

Link Bait Question
When other sites link to your blog pages does it benefit the root domain or just the actual blog page that is linked to? In other words, how page specific is the value of linking?

Natural Link Profile - Ranking Signal?
Hi, Is a natural link profile a ranking signal? What is the value in a natural link profile? What is a (natural?) link graph? Is Majestic SEO the only company capable of visualizing a link graph? (I know the answers to these questions but I want to hear what SEOMoz has to say in the quasi-official standards of SEOMoz Q/A) Regards,
