Authrity link building

This is one of the strangest things i have yet to see on Link Building ,
one of the sites i follow up managed to build links on huge sites like :
speedtest.net , pbs.org , ucla.edu ,etc ,
its done in some downloadble file like that :
http://cdn.speedtest.net/mobile/SpeedTestHD_v2.0.apk?pagetype=&pageNum=124
basically when you click on the link it downloads a file ,
and i see that it was done hundreds of times in large numbers of top ranked sites ,
does any one know how to do it ?

These are not real links, but a bug where OSE thinks pdf files and downloadable programs are links. The problem is in the process of being fixed. Rand has some more information in today's blog post at http://www.seomoz.org/blog/november-linkscape-update-is-live

Hey ,
any idea how does it get done ?!

Actually, this is most likely a bug in Open Site Explorer. A lot of the problem has been eliminated, but there are still some cases when the crawler spots a downloadable file and thinks it's a link. We had an update mid-day yesterday to Linkscape that removed many of these links (so if you were looking at data from a couple of days ago, you'll want to rerun the data). The December Linkscape update should take care of most of these downloads that get classified as links.

Spam Link Building Discovered - What would you do?
Hi Mozers, After investigating our no 1 competitor we have discovered their 87k back links comparing to ours 1k. After dipper investigations we discovered that all the back links are gained by the websites created by themselves. So what they did is - they had purchased 10+ domains and created 10+ new websites that are identical as their original .com version. EVERY SINGLE LINK on these 'new' websites link to their .com version. The 'New' websites are not indexed. Literally each of us can do the same and gain thousands of back links, but isn't it violating google's policy? What are your thought on it? (What is the best practice to report the violation of google's policy to Google?) Best regards, Lana

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?
