Is there any tool that can automatically generate backlinks for my website?
-
Hi
I need a tool or some kind of service like attracta for backlinks. I need backlinks from high page rank directories blogs etc. Please help me out from where I can purchase backlinks?

Yeah there are many, But it's highly recommended not to use them if you care about quality links and ranking.
-
If there are automated tools that submit every site that asks to directories, the directories are going to be worthless when it comes to actual users. The search engines know this, and it won't do your sie any good, and quite possibly could harm your site.

If you want to outsource, delegate or abdicate link building (don't worry we all secretly want to have nothing to do with it because it's hard) then hire a PR. That's going to get you MILES further than any of this stuff. That's what we did and now we've been featured in the news all over the place and on tons of really high quality sites.
Linkbuilding is now synonymous with PR. It's not done from basements and dark rooms at 4am and you can't do it with shady tools. If you want a tool then use an outreach tool to automate your relationship building with the sites you want to feature on. Or just hire someone to 'do PR' not to 'build links' because the people i've hired to 'build links' have been using as much black and grey as white hat techniques. Everyone wants to cheat and if you do then you are fighting against Google. Or here in the UK we say 'biting the hand that feeds you'.
If you can get a good relationship with one of these link-building specialist agencies and have the confidence and insight to know when they've sold you a pup - and ask them to fix it for free - then you can get somewhere. But its expensive andeasier just to set a strategy, hire someone and execute.

NOT is the answer.
Directory submissions are the WORST way to spend your time and resources. They just don't work. And I'm not being 'holier than thou' because I actually tried them out last year (because I test everything and have a fairly small site so thought it might work) but it didn't. There was no benefit and the directories I used were all paid with links to internal pages. It took me a couple of days (+ about $500) and after a month I ended up having to disavow most of them and then the others kicked me off after 6 months wanting more money! It's a total joke. Run by total jokers.
Even automating it is a very bad waste of time. **If you're a local business and are actually talking about 'citations' then that's a different thing altogether. ** But directories died years ago. Many of them aren't even in the index or google has algorithmically discounted them because they have literally too many links spread too thinly so each link carries a tiny proportion of juice. And the ones that are in the index come back with very high toxic score in SEM Rush and AHrefs with the exception of one called Joe Ant. That one is showing green lights. So I didn'd disavow but i've not seen one single referral from them.
I also noticed an ENORMOUS increase in spam following my little test. I get hundreds of submissions to my forms and site and even people calling. I've also seen a significant increase in strange black-hat links added to my list. This is not 'negative seo' but the scrapers and black hat people crawl the directories to find people still dumb enough to pay them (like me!!!) and see them as easy targets for other dreadful SEO products.
Avoid. Avoid. Avoid.

There are many tools that do this. However, I would suggest staying away from them. Spend that money on create valuable content for the users. There will be a better long-term roi and the risk of getting a algorithmic or manual action taken against your site is greatly minimized. Good luck!

Spammy no follow backlinks - what should I do?
There is a individual/company that is creating lots of spam sites in my niche. It doesn't seem that they are trying to rank for any keywords, so I'm a little confused as to their purpose, but here's what they're doing. They scrape the top 10 Google results for each keyword and create a page - so if the niche is "widgets", they scrape the top 10 ranked sites for 'widgets', 'blue widgets', 'red widgets', and so on. A 'results' page is created for each keyword, which is linked from a home page. The results page always contains 10 websites - text is the site metadescription or similar. Each website gets a nofollow link back with the page title used as the anchor text. The host sites all have the keyword in the domain name - e.g www.widgetsxyz.com. The sites are thrown together but interestingly have a very crappy but individual logo (like 90's clipart). The host sites all have high DA/PA due to some very extensive link spam pointing to the sites, with very targeted keywords. There is seemingly no purpose to these sites that I can see - no other 'followed' links on the page or site. Whoever is doing this is churning out tens, if not hundreds of these sites. Any ideas what might be going on here, and whether I should be disavowing these sites (even though no follow). The fear is that they could switch the links to do follow, and get all the major players penalised in one fell swoop. ???

Link profile problem? User-generated reviews website suffering after Penguin
Hi all, We run a user-generated reviews website and we link to the websites of businesses with reviews. Many of them also link back to their reviews page (and in fact, we give them a widget to encourage this). I have a couple of questions about this; Most of these links are to legitimate, but fairly small and unknown businesses - which means a lot of our inbound (and outbound) links are low quality. Could this be hurting us? Given that the links are 2-way, could this be viewed as spam? Some businesses (including a couple with high traffic) have included our widget in their website footer - so there are thousands of (low quality) links from a single domain. Problem? The reason I'm asking is that our traffic suffered in the Panda update, and is again suffering with Penguin - despite the fact that we have a lot of unique content in the form of user-reviews. We've never engaged in any black-hat techniques. Any ideas or advice would be much appreciated. SEO novice here!

Hi all, Agency SEO here. Finally getting around to doing some work on our own site and had a thought. Any agency SEOs out there including "Website design by xyz" links in client website footers?
