Forum posting link building
-
Is answering questions on yahoo answers and forums genuine link building opportunity? I dont mean spamming much, but being a genuine member of the forums
-
I think being a genuine member of a forum can be helpful, though it can also be time consuming to become a real member of the community and participate even when you're not getting an immediate link. One helpful part of becoming a member of the community that is related to your client/site is that you get a feel for the questions that people ask, current problems in the field, and can get a lot of ideas for content and products that are needed in that field.

Not an expert but from what I have ready I would say it all depends on the site in question. Maybe Yahoo answer isn;t that good as it can be spammed alot.
If you link for say Clothes appears on a Database forum, then it might not get that much athority because the site is off topic and the users are not really there for clothes.
However if your Clothes link appeard on a Armani forum, it might be relevant to the users and as such hold a bit more weight.
Thats my take on it.
Anyone else know more/better?

Help talking to an aggressive web team (1st time in the forums)
Hello All! I am a long-time Moz user, but not super technical myself. I'm used to asking a web team to fix something, based on the reports, and they do it. I'm trying to communicate with a really aggressive web team about a site that's showing about 16,000 errors every week on my Moz reports. What I'm trying to figure out is if they are right or not, so I can either ignore them or push harder. Can someone help me with how to explain these to them or let me know if they are right? These are the two biggies I'm struggling with: b. Duplicate page content

Example: https://www.whiteheadindustrial.com/c-104-abrasives.aspx?pagenum=1 and https://www.whiteheadindustrial.com/c-104-abrasives.aspx Their explanation: I wonder if MOZ is not reading the infinite scrolling pages the way that Google does. We have followed Google’s directions for how to let Google know that each page is a successor of the previous one, so no duplicate content. But probably MOZ tool does not view the code on the page the same way. So I think this is not relevant for Google indexint. Second:
Example 2: https://www.whiteheadindustrial.com/p-19708-4-point-mandrel-and-hex-nut-116-hole-18-shank-nocra-13440-m.aspx
https://www.whiteheadindustrial.com/p-30356-working-peanut-knife-no-046-6220-ss.aspx
In Example 2, the only duplicate content I can find is the “Stocking data Current as of… Please note:..” and the Customer Reviews area. c. Duplicate page title
I wonder if MOZ is not reading the infinite scrolling pages the way that Google does; because the duplicate page titles are related to category page I would be super grateful for any guidance!1 -

How do you determine how much a link is worth?
Obviously things like Mozrank, domain authority, relevancy signals, authority signals, and other fundamentals are a great starting ground, but I was wondering how people put value on a links. How much time is a link from a page rank of x or a moz rank of y worth. How much time, money (not in terms of paid links, but in terms of manpower, copyrighting required, etc.) is a link of a certain rank worth. Obviously there is no exact answer to this question, but I'm very curious to see what people have to say in this regard.

No internal links showing up in OpenSiteExplorer report
Hi there A simple one. I was just looking at our site in opensiteexplorer and notice that it says we have no internal links at all: https://www.evernote.com/shard/s244/sh/dd8cc88f-fee4-4ba2-8ec0-f3f8d5c408db/8d3fc3d2aa6fc9d5406051bc91731402 Rather odd as we do. Is this a bug with OSE that anyone knows about or something else? Any ideas / thoughts gratefully received.

Internal Links
I've searched high and low, but I could just be missing it... Is there a report on internal links? Maybe a count? Or better yet, a way to see internal anchor text?

How good is Link Assistant Suite? and how good is the SEOmoz API?
Ive gotten many mixed opinions on Link Assistant and its complete suite, I wanted to get some opinions on the matter.. Anyone use these tools? What is the difference between these tools and other tools on the web? Would adding the free SEOmoz API into this software show better results?
