Post index of quality back links; How long should you leave it to see if it's had any impact?
-
The question is pretty much in the title.
We had a link from a Charity site (high PA/ DA) and from Metro online recently. Indexed about 3 weeks ago and 5 days ago respectively. No movement to speak off. (Previously we've seen significant boosts from far lesser links).
Should I assume they have had no effect? Or is too early to tell
I know it takes up to 2 months for some of our new pages to rank, same with passing authority from links?
(Note: I appreciate the competition will play a significant part in this, but my question is specifically about how long one should leave to know one way or another. )

Hi Cesare.
Appreciate the response. 8 to 12 weeks for new content ranking is my experience also.
However, when we got a link from a different charity (about 18 months ago) our rankings jumped up in the SERPs 2 to 3 weeks after that link being indexed.
So I imagine the answer is not the same for on page/ off page signals.
I'll happily stand correct though. Anyone else care to comment?

Isaac, I posted a similar questions a couple of days ago: https://mza.seotoolninja.com/community/q/changes-taken-over-in-the-serp-s-how-long-do-i-have-to-wait-until-i-can-rely-on-the-new-position
I did changes on site and it wasn't about link juice showing its full effect. But I guess the answer to your question must be similar if not the same. They say between 8 and 12 weeks. According to my experience its not a bad guess. Though I would say ist an upper limit.
Hope this helps.

Does no-indexed page has an impact on bounce rate
my question is: I have a page that contains some external links, I know when visitors click on them and leave my site it hurts my bounce rate, But I have a solution for that, I am using external link redirection code, with this code after users clicking on external links they are not leaving my site and first went to some link like this: "http://mysite.com/redirect/https://externalsite.com/" and after 10 seconds they redirect to the external site, I make this redirect page noindex and nofollow. but the question is does this noindex page can decrease my page bounce rate because users don't leave my site and first go to another page of my site. but I don't know does no-indexed page has an impact on bounce rate or my struggle is worthless

Eric Ward's urlwire.com - worth a $500 investment?
I'm after a turbo boost (direct and indirect) to my site's SERPs. How beneficial is URLwire.com? Anyone here used it? Worth $495? Given that Matt Cutts has said links from PR sites don't pass link pop, would URLwire fall into this category? (I'm aware the idea is also to generate backlinks from other referring sites). Thanks

Link Building - Where to start and how long to see results
Been working a lot on on-page seo and it mistifies me to observe that when i get A's constantly for search terms for on page but im not on the first 10 pages of Google compared to a competitor on page 1 with on page reports of C, D and even E! So, a lot of hard work "on page" does not equal to a lot of hard work which is obviously link building. my domain and page authority is only 18 and 27 whereas the main competitors are 50's and 60's. Is "link building" or lack of it my main issue? Here is the site http://www.govisitthelakes.com Very new to link building 😞 Anyone know a good place to start? Ive been working through open site explorer and starting to get some of my competitors links. How long to see results from link building to improve domain and page authority? or is it just "how long is a piece of string" and be patient. Thanks Ouji

When searching for high quality links, in a niche area such as real estate, does page rank factor into a search or is page / domain authority the most important factor?
After having employed many different methods for finding good link partners I am now finding it more difficult to reach out and identify good quality links for a niche area such as real estate. Does page rank factor into the search much or is it better to focus on page / domain authority as a major factor?

High quality links but where do you find them?
Hi, A lot of the answers on here point to building high quality links, which makes sense but where do you find these links? Lets say the website sells Football Boots, the current keyword you are trying to rank for is say 'Indoor Football Boots'. How do you now go about looking for those links? Cheers

How does Google interpret articles or prepositions in languages where it's attached to the (key)word?
Hi, All! This is for any foreign language SEOs where articles or prepostitions such as "the" "to" "in" or anything else are actually part of the word they are modifying and not a separate word, as in English: How does Google understand those words on-page and in anchor text? If you want to optimize for the word "house", and your content/anchor text says "the house" or "in the house" (again, all one word) - what does Google count that as? Does it count toward "house"? Does it count toward "in the house" only? Does it count toward "house" but not as much as if you had just put "house"? I end up sometimes writing slightly grammatically-off content because I want to optimize for the keyphrase - but is that necessary? Obviously different languages might be different, but you can probably project a little from one to the others. Thanks in advance!
