Sponsoring a show/play
-
Hey,
How does it work with sponsorships and paid back links?
I have a lawyer website, and I know lots of people who do plays and play shows.
I could easily sponsor a band for like $100 and get a link on the page.
Is this allowed? I could even write stuff on their page to make it more relevant.
let me know, thanks.

Hi there
Here is Google's resource on link schemes - I suggest you read it.
I would also suggest (based on Google's resource here) that you make this link nofollow.
Since this is a sponsorshipesque link and you're a local business (if you're not, don't do this), then make sure you take the proper steps.
Where would this link live exactly? Content? Sidebar? Ad?
Let me know - thanks so much!

It will hurt your site and theirs. It doesn't matter if your only suggesting plays and optimizing for them well. Plays and Lawyers don't add up, unless it's a blog and your recommending something.

Should we get link from dated page with high PA/DA?
We have an unlinked mention on a page that has dated content about an old event but the page and site have a good PA and DA score. Is it worth it to go for the link? Thanks.

Once you have cleaned up links / disavowed them how to get google to take notice quicker
Once we have contact webmasters and had some links removed / changed from money anchor text to brand anchor text. Or failing that once we have submitted spam URLs to our disavow file, should we just wait and keep and eye on the how quickly google re caches the URLs or should we try and force google to recrawl the urls quicker by submitting them to Google's submit url tool ?

Are links in sponsored articles juicy?
Hi There I've been offered a sponsored article in a national newspaper that can contain up to 3 dofollow links. Something similar to this http://www.express.co.uk/posts/view/271282 The question is would this be seen by Google as a paid link (which it is really I guess) and thereby pass no link juice? It's pretty expensive so don't want to get it wrong. Any thoughts gratefully received!

What are your views on link submitters / directory submitters?
I have no real opinion on them to be honest, I don't really have any experience with them personally: eg: http://www.fastdirectorysubmitter.com/downloads.html http://www.thelinksubmitter.com/ http://www.dumpblaster.com/ I presume they will be negative or a waste of time?

Should I optimize/link build all my pages at once?
I'm currently starting to optimize about 30 area specific pages for a property maintenance company and was wondering, what's the best way to link build multiple pages at once? Should I link build for all of the 30 the pages at once, or maybe focus on 5 individual pages - get them ranking well, then focus on the next 5 and so on?
