Feedback on Link Removal Services
-
Hi Guys,
Not looking for a debate on whether or not to use link removal services (linkdelete.com, deletebacklinks.com etc), I'm just interested in hearing any feedback you may have after having used one.
What was your experience with the service?
Do you believe it helped you recover from a penalty?
Cheers.

Hi David,
Any update for us? I'm looking to outsource as well since time is just not worth it to most clients, or they are just reluctant.
-
I'm in contact with a site that is trialing one of these services, will do an update once I have an idea of the results.

Hi Broadbeach Media,
Nice to hear that people were recommending RMOOV - just a quick update - the free trial option is now Free Basic membership, which is 1 Campaign at a time. Some SEOmoz TAGFEE rubbed off!

Disclosure: rmoov was developed by our company's Software Division

Even I want to know the final view Is it good to use them? Do you think Deleting links will create negative impact on google for trust and authority? If my site is already in penalty and I will delete few links, will they think that they have taken a right decision by removing us from top results? Well, lots of things coming in my mind!

I guess you didn't read my first sentence
I am fully aware of the irony paying to remove links from crappy sites that were paid to be placed. But again, just looking to see if anyone has any specific experience with such a service.
Why? Because when people approach me after being penalized for having a rubbish link profile and I can tell that they can't/won't pay for my time to manually undo the harm (quite time consuming I'm sure you're aware), it would be nice to be able offer them an alternative. If, however, those services are not legit, or up to scratch, of course I wouldn't send people their way.
Thx

Would people actually use those?
I would immediately dismiss them as being the parasitic version of directory-submissions-gurus.com in terms of trustworthyness

Thanks for the info.
In this case I'm more looking for feedback on outsourcing the entire process to a service such as linkdelete.
The reason is, when a small business with very limited budgets needs their link profile cleaned up, (and can't handle it in-house) the only cost efficient solution I can think of is to outsource it.
Cheers.

Hi David,
If there are way to many bad links to remove, it is probably a good choice to invest in a link removal service (can save time and money). I myself haven't had any need to use one, but recently at an SEO conference we were advised by specialists to use an online tool named RMOOV (http://www.rmoov.com/) which they recommended if you have some link cleaning to do. There is a free option as well to give it a shot with 1 campaign.
Regards

Newspapers are mentioning our service without links
Hi All Hope you are well. I am getting mentioned in a few newspapers online and they will put a link to our website without the anchor tag. Now I was just wondering if anyone else has experienced this, and if so, how/did you approach the author about getting a link back? Any other suggestions on getting links from such places would be extremely valuable as well. Thanks in advance Jeff

Does the ratio of external nofollow links to external "do follow" links matter in terms of SERPs ranking?
My site has an external link nofollow:dofollow ratio of approximately 1:1 That is, there are about as many nofollow external links as "do follow" external links. I have an impression that the ratio of no-follow to "do follow" links is a factor in the way that our website shows up in SERPs. I have the impression from reading a variety of sources, and from looking at Seomoz, that calculate "trust" factors as if they mattered (in SERPs), that seem to value a relatively low nofollow:dofollow ratio. Am I correct about that? Thanks,

Too many links - How to address without removing them?
Hi, When a page has too many links (over 100) due to the number of monthly blog archives for example, is it possible to use a code (like no index but just for one link) that would prevent Google from counting the link? Or not in which case the only options would be to leave the extra links or to delete them. I do not want to put a no index at the page level but more at link level by preventing SE to follow the least important links but keeping them active for users. Thank you, David

Link Directories
Hi there, We're very shortly launching a new website so as part of our link strategy we will be linking to directories found with the Link Acquisition Assistant for various keyword searches. I was wondering at what point is it not worthwhile submitting to these directories with regards PA and DA? For example if a directory has a domain authority of 69 but the page authority for the keyword in question is only 1, would it be a waste of time? Cheers

Do links within imbeddable widgets carry link juice?
I'm dipping my toes into infographic design. On of my desired outcomes is to gain links by having other sites embed my graphic. I'm considering using Tableau's interactive data visualization software to do so; thus creating a widget, embedding it on my blog, and including the embed code for others to post. Is it possible to include a juice passing link in such an infographic? I know its possible to include links inside the tableau graphic but not sure if they have straight SEO value. If these links are not juice passing would it be better to go with a simple image link that passes value?
