Dofollow Blog Comments
-
I wanna buy dofollow comments, can be there any negative effects? I understand that is a kind of a black hat seo, but i saw many sites who used this type of service and get boosted in the search engine ranking.
-
That's a highly valid point. Same goes for if it's a clients site.
-
If you're planning on doing this with a non-disposable, branded website it's a bad idea as there are can be lots of negative effects.
If you're planning on being black hat, having a network of disposable sites, and are going to be masking (or trying to mask) everything you do, it's just another tool in your toolbox.
Like people already mentioned here, it's better to make worthwhile comments that can be traced back to a reputable looking source as those could even have the added benefit of bringing you additional business, not just a boost in the rankings.
-
You might be joking but I've seen comments like that haha
Such services are often easy to spot I think
-
lol.... if you pay the wrong person for this service they could post stuff like...
"Visut da coolest Wigit sight un da intranet - Pruneabic Bohan is a bad mudda."
That will make you look really good if messages like that are plastered all over every blog in your niche.
Would be best to buy services like this for your competitors. lol

You'll probably get some complaints by blog owners, and it really doesn't do a lot anymore anyway. Most of the links will be either removed fast, the ones that stay will be on blogs that aren't maintained and are therefore full of thousands of other spammy links for Ugg boots and viagra, and the rest will be on blogs that are both irrelevant and practically worthless in terms of what it will give you.
You could always just find a few decent blogs that are dofollow, give a good response and add the link yourself More likely it will stay that way.
-
I think it depends, those do-follow comments really give a initial boost to your sites but the vast majority of those sites the comment section is not Auto Approve and the guy who is selling you this service for sure is not going to comment on all the sites, he will use some program.
Based on that maybe you would have a much better result doing it by yourself, really comment on the blog posts, adding value to the owner of the blog and, by consequence, getting a high approval rate of your comments/links.
-
Personally, I would avoid this strategy. If the site selling the dofollow comments is caught by Google then Google could determine that you bought a link and penalize you.
Can you find any sites in your industry that remove the nofollow tag from comment of users who participate a lot on their blog? I'd focus my efforts on such sites.
Not that I'd necessarily recommend this, but you could always report your competitors to Google if they are indeed buying links. Before you do this I'd make sure that you were playing by Google's SEO rules.
-
The most likely negative result is that Google will know that the links are paid and they will pass no value - thus wasted money.
Another potential negative result is that these links will stink up your link profile and your rankings will suffer. Nobody knows exactly how google detects of measures this.
If you have a great site stay on the white hat path.... if the only way you can get links is by shady methods... guess you are stuck with them.

Consolidating many external blogs onto main website: canonicals or 301s
Hi Everyone, Presently I have many blogs across a range of domains, each one targeting the client/type of user interested in that product (or service in this case). I originally set up this strategy to use the content of each blog to create a "link juice farm" (our products are educational courses so have a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT target market depending on the course area), which in turn links to the related page/course on our main site. My plan is to move all the content from those external blogs into subcategories on my main website blog in order to increase its traffic, authority etc. Originally, I was going to cut and paste the content, then put in appropriate 301 redirects from the external blogs to the main site. However, I then thought about copying all the content to my main site, setting it as the canonical version, and leaving all the external blogs intact and running. The idea being, I still get the benefit of all those external links pointing back at my main website. Which would be the better strategy for me to pursue? Thanks in advance for your insights, I really appreciate you taking the time to help me out with this question.

Should we imitate our competitor's blog network?
One of our competitors has built a little blog network, and I'm wondering if it's worth it for us to imitate it. Here's how they have it set up: They have domain.com, their e-commerce site, and blog.domain.com. They also have a half-dozen EMD blogs set up that all link to each other and to the e-commerce site, each one supplying content related to one niche of their busines (e.g. kitchenwidgets.com, widgetsforkids.com, etc.). It seems they've been doing this since December 2011. In my opinion, the content on these EMD blogs is pretty low value. Sure enough, they have basically no inbound links from outside the blog network, and it's not getting shared socially. I'm having a hard time imagining a lot of long-tail searches that would bring in qualified shoppers, since they basically just write up 300-word long descriptions of photos. Based on SEMrush data, it doesn't look like this approach is hurting them -- they didn't take a Penguin dive in April, for example. But how likely is it that this approach is helping them enough to justify the time they must spend writing (probably ~30-60m a day)? It would be trivial for the algo to determine that these are not natural links and completely devalue them. Would it not be better to consolidate that time into 2.5-5hrs a week spent researching and writing a valuable, link-worthy, long-tail-rich post for the main blog and then promoting it in hopes of attracting natural links?

Re april 5th post on over optimization - need clarification blogging
I mainly do content creation for clients .e.g. site and blog on word press - then link the blogs to the related static page. I have been just linking to the static page using keywords that match the title tag keywords. Is that correct?

No-Follow links on clients blog?
I have a client who has a blog with a side bar on each page, in the sidebar there are various links to the site, as well as links to some of his partner sites. I was looking at the recently updated open site explorer, and noticing that their domain authority is way down, a good amount below their competitors as well. The total links compared to the linking root domains is ~3000 to 200. So my question is 1. How can I gain on the domain authority front? (more diverse links?) And if so, 2. Should I no-follow the links on their blog so they don't have hundreds of pages with the same links (most internal) on there site Thanks,
