Followed links from one of our biggest channel?
-
Hi everyone,
I have a new client that's a huge company and has a disastrous ranking. It's a Human Resources company that among other things, they post job offers on their site in which people have to register to apply.
As a channel to outreach more people, they are using a popular site for job offers on the country. There, the job position is described and they tell users to apply within this channel or on their own site. But there's no actual link to their site.
Will Google find it spammy to post their site's link for that specific job offer on this channel on every job description? No competitor is doing it so it made me doubt a little bit.
NOTE: The job offer channel doesn't allow us to "nofollow" a link. All the links are followed.
Thanks to any suggestion.

Thanks for your suggestion Oleg. I'll try your G+ idea and see how it works out.
Cheers.

That could work too. Something along the lines of "View more jobs at www.site.com" (basically, don't use money/keyword anchor text)
Here's another idea - when you post a new job on your site, post it to your company's google plus business page as well (and/or personal). G+ links are almost instantly crawled so you can post to the other job site right afterwards.

Thanks for the answer Oleg.
I thought it was a little bit silly too. But since the links aren't being "naturally" build it made me hesitate.
It's difficult to get those links indexed first in our site since some job offers can last just 2 weeks and we need to quickly make outreach to comply with clients.
What if, instead of posting my site's specific job offer link I post my home page?

If it isn't against the TOS of the site you are posting on, it'd be silly not to link back to your site. One thing I recommend is that you have different content on the page or make sure you post the job offer to your site first, get it indexed, then post it on the other jobs site with a link back.

Disvowing Links?
I ran a report through SEM rush and it came back with 174 toxic links ( score 100-60). I have been reading mixed reviews about what to do. Most of the websites are not relevant and appear to be linking to the images. Should I disavow these links? Would it help SEO? Or should I leave it be?

Do links from the second page of an article pass link juice?
I have been writing for some sites with a high overall page rank and the articles are being viewed as quality by search engines as well. However, they usually put a link to my site at the very end of the article and then break the article down into two pages to increase ad revenue. It seems that I'm not getting much credit for that link even if the page has a high SEOmoz/PR score. I want to know if I am getting the benefit from these links. If not, how do I make sure I get the most bang, even if my link is on a second page of the article? Here is an example of what I mean: http://www.forbes.com/sites/theyec/2012/08/22/kanban-for-customers-how-to-increase-transparency-in-your-business/

Linking articles to each other
I've been using white-hat article marketing to post original content about my niche to credible article directories (yes, I realize many of them were recently devalued). My question is: Is it a good or bad idea to have future articles link to older articles, as a way to increase the chances of having the older articles indexed, or increasing the amount of link juice they pass to my site (since they point to my site)? I get 2 links per article and was thinking of using 1 to point to a prior (related) article, and the other to point to my site.
