SEO from INDIA Smarter then Google?
-
Exploring this url:
In Open Site Explorer, it is clear those guys bought one of those package available on site like eLance.com a low price over seas!!!
Where freelancer around the word can be hired for a fews bucks. For example, I post a job on eLance for SEO and most of the freelancer submitting where from INDIA. For just a few hundreds dollars, you can get a complet SEO package. At first, the price was attractive, but when posting on seoMoz and doing research, I came to the conclusion, the techniques they use might hurt more the produce positive result...
How can you get a D.A. of 45 using backlinks they get?
I read all those things about Google algorithm, and Panda and Penguin and this and that... Being impossible to crack!
Do you have a explanation?
I work really hard ans spends lots of $$$ to have a clean site selling furnace filters
I follow all the SEO guide lines, practice only white hat trying to built somethings, but with a P.A. of 19 and a competitors ranking like this, I ask myself:"Maybe INDIA is smarter then Google and I should do like this site, spend a couple of hundreds dollars and buy myself a high D.A."

To add an actionable response to the mix.....
I suggest making a list of authority sites within your niche or closely related. Research what kind of sites they are linking to (if only gov sites etc. then scratch off the list). If you find other sites similar to yourself that have links then make a resource not currently available and start a campaign that has merit as to why high authority sites SHOULD link to you. (for the benefit of their users and their site)
"I want to make money" is not unique in any way and in my opinion if you are teetering on turning to spammy farm style marketing to build your site then you are probably a long ways from where you need to be. When you are talking about yourself you will find few to listen but when you start talking about others and focusing on ways that you can be an asset to them you will find an audience truly interested in what you have to say.
For example: Dedicate a small section of your site to filters specially for homes that were certified with Energy Star AirPlus at the time they were built. Then go to http://epa.gov/iaplus01/join_now.html and sign up as an ally to the program. If accepted (it is not tough by any means) then you get a DA 100 dofollow back link from the ultimate authority in your industry, the EPA. Doesn't that sound like a better long term business building option than choosing strategies that will position yourself as the enemy to a $100 Billion Company that controls 70% of the worlds search volume?

"How can you get a D.A. of 45 using backlinks they get?"
Keep in mind that Domain Authority doesn't have the same strong spam algorithms that Google incorporates. Although there is a consideration for spammy sites, it's actually much easier to manipulate Domain Authority than it is Google (although in the future improvements to Domain Authority will likely mean more spam is discounted)
Unfortunately, manipulating Domain Authority in a black-hat way does nothing for your rankings. While Domain Authority remains one of the best predictors of how a domain will rank in search results, Google does not actually take Domain Authority into considerations. If your competitors are buying obvious unnatural links, it's likely they are not doing as well in search results as you might suspect.
If you're looking for long lasting results, better to have 1 good earned link than 1000 spammy one.

Dont listen to chris, you can lose your 19 DA points along with your money with the next algorithm update by google. he just messing with you.
1. Do not get duped with cheap prices or "paid" links. if you want paid links, run a PR campaign, far far better value. do some press releases if you have news to share. "paid links" of most other kinds really will bite you at some point.
2. you are not doing "everything" in your power, not even close.
3. DIY SEO can be very time consuming and hard to do properly, that is why people like you, business owners whose time is worth more than sitting and learning all about SEO, hire people whose lives revolve around SEO.
4. per my basic and quick look up of your website:
-
Your top referring "followed" baclink comes from a page with DA of 55. not so stellar.
-
you have 10 total "root domains" giving you 312 backlinks. looks kind of very spammy! that is 31 links per each root domain and only 10 total referring root domains.

per a little further digging
I notice that your anchor text profile does not seem something too healthy for SEO, very little relevance, and very irrelevant variance. You need to do some keyword research and better optimize your page titles and on-page SEO and then try to integrate those KWs in a non-spammy way into your controlled back-links (those you can edit). you further really need to invest in a way to have user or third party generated content about you and your company.
there you go, now you have a few things to get started on instead of just being upset and pondering what you have done wrong or what those other guys do. SEO is no quick fix nor easy thing to mess with and requires a lot of study time and dedication on a continuous basis.
Good luck!

What would be the best course of action to nullify negative effects of our website's content being duplicated (Negative SEO)
Hello, everyone About 3 months ago I joined a company that deals in manufacturing of transportation and packaging items. Once I started digging into the website, I noticed that a lot of their content was "plagiarized". I use quotes as it really was not, but they seemed to have been hit with a negative SEO campaign last year where their content was taken and being posted across at least 15 different websites. Literally every page on their website had the same problem - and some content was even company specific (going as far as using the company's very unique name). In all my years of working in SEO and marketing I have never seen something at the scale of this. Sure, there are always spammy links here and there, but this seems very deliberate. In fact, some of the duplicate content was posted on legitimate websites that may have been hacked/compromised (some examples include charity websites. I am wondering if there is anything that I can do besides contacting the webmasters of these websites and nicely asking for a removal of the content? Or does this duplicate content not hold as much weight anymore as it used to. Especially since our content was posted years before the duplicate content started popping up. Thanks,

Is there any SEO impact to using "www" vs. non-"www" preferred domain name?
My client has been using "www" with his domain and before I took over, has used it in marketing etc. I typically don't use "www" in my wordpress setup, and set non-www as the preferred domain in google analytics and google search console. Does it make any difference? Especially when www resolves to non-www? I appreciate some guidance with this.

SEO for Career sites and sup-pages
For main job categories: We manage several career pages for several clients but the competition for the main keywords (even several long tail) is from big names like Indeed and similar job boards?

What would you recommend? For job posts: Since the job posts that our clients post are short lived (80% live less than a month) would it still be incorrect to purchase backlinks? or is it always a big no Thanks for your help. And if a similar question has been asked I would appreciate if you could point me to it. I could not find one.0 -

Is it outside of Google's search quality guidelines to use rel=author on the homepage?
I have recently seen a few competitors using rel=author to markup their homepage. I don't want to follow suit if it is outside of Google's search quality guidelines. But I've seen very little on this topic, so any advice would be helpful. Thanks!
