How Useful is this website for Linkbuilding
-
I've been looking at A to Z of materials trying to determine how much time it is worth spending on building a company profile and adding additional information
http://www.azom.com/suppliers.aspx?SupplierID=2343
DA is 50+ and PA for a new listing seems to be 17 of so. My site currently has a DA of about 20. Once of my competitors seems to have put a lot of time into it
Other than a profile you can also write articles and post news. It's worth pointing out that as a whole the sector has no useful blogs and most linkbuilding is done via directory listings. And Most companies have back links from less than 20 other root domains.
Thoughts would be gratefully received

Thanks for posting those sites. They charge a fee but hopefully worth the money if they can help with better rankings.

Hi Zippy-Bungle,
Personally I think it's definitely worth it. It's great if you've found a vertical directory that lists companies in your relevant industry! When I built my site, there weren't any great backlink opportunities immediately available, so I created business profiles in the few general directories recommended in the book Rand Fishkin co-wrote 'Art of SEO'. These were BOTW, JoeAnt and Yahoo's Directory. I pretty much saw the effect these links had in about a month or so, bringing up my brand-new site up to the first page for bunch of semi-competitive keywords.
Because my site is an online marketplace, I couldn't find any good vertical directories. If your business has a relevant vertical directory like azom.com, go for it! Besides the backlink, they could also bring you organic leads too!
Hope this helps!

The directory appears to be in good standing with Google. Decent PR, lots of indexed pages, etc. You're safe creating a profile here, and if you're noticing competitors use it who are performing better than you in this space, it seems like it's something that's worth spending some time on.

My website Moz Page Authority
My website is Best Comedy Tickets. The current homepage has a Page Authority is 41, mR : 4:53 and Domain Authority is 31. However all my sub pages are basically non existent. All the other pages on the site are a Page Authority of 1, mR : 0.00. Why is this and how do I increase this ? Are there any tips or tricks to increase subpages ? I appreciate all the feed back and am grateful for any tips or helpful advice.

Curating Content. used to avoid, but now i'm having second thoughts
It's really hitting me now, because content curating is extremely common in a lot of other forms of media. I always avoided it because I didn't know the extent of any negatives that I might see from the search engines (duplicate content). Does anybody else curate content for their blogs? The main problem that I am having is that I just don't have enough time to publish the amount of content that I need. Outsourcing is the best alternative, and quite frankly, unless your high school English teacher needs extra money, it really isn't a very good one. Basically, i'm looking at content curating as a really good way to publish a lot of content, on more topics, a lot easier. What extent do you consider reasonable? How do you go about creating your content? What would you say is the easiest way to create content efficiently?

Internal Linking for Newspaper Websites
Now, there are a number of do's and dont's when it comes to internal linking, but do those rules apply to news websites that have to interlink relevant news stories, primarily based on their relevancy to the user and the value that they have to provide rather than keeping the idea of page rank sculpting in mind? What's your take on this?
