Is this going to help for Linkbuilding
-
I am not able to do link building from like minded websites. Hence I am planning to go for following approach :
By creating links to my website on blogspots (using comments).
Participating in question / answer forum on the websites meant for r asking questions for different categories.
Writing articles on good ranking websites and creating links.
Participating in Social media websitesPlease let me know if this will help me. Any other possible way apart from these?

Matt Williamson has some really good points in his comment. I'm going to focus more on those potentially spammy link tactics.
I would only suggest using blog comments and profiles on forums that meet the following criteria:
- The site is somehow related to your niche, product, service, etc.
- You are there to add value to an already created discussion.
- You are there for the long haul.
- The site you're participating on isn't anything shady or illegal.
The biggest thing to remember is, wherever you spend time building links, you better be building value too. Any link that was created 'for the link" and not because you are genuinely adding meaningful content/conversation will be looked upon as low quality, even spammy in some cases.
You don't want to create a negative image of your brand to the eyes of users, likewise for search engines.

I would stay away from the tactic of creating spammy blog comments and forum links to your website. Guest blogging and building social relationships with authority figures is always a good tactic to start gaining decent links to your site. I would also consider other ideas such as content curation for your site - there is an excellent article on this in this weeks SEOMoz blog. I would also think about ways in which you could possibly create some sort of viral campaign - maybe a video that could help you gain brand recognition and exposure thus leading to links. I don't know what your site is but have you thought about creating your own blog and encouraging others to produce guest posts for it - invite other to post with outreach emails/letters? Building those relationships with social influencers can a good way to gain guest posts. Hope this helps!

HELP! Google is penalizing me and I can't figure out why.
I've come to the conclusion Google is definitely penalizing me for the keword "sensaphone" and I cannot figure out why. I've checked back links etc. and I don't see anything that would raise a flag. We rate very well in Bing etc. for the same keyword, but in Google SERP's will be on the 3rd or later page. Our domain is - www.absoluteautomation.com - any ideas?

Started linkbuilding, traffic drops
So I have a couple 3 year old projects I left intact for the last 2 years. Lately I tried to revigorate them. I started to build links to pages that used to be in Google top ten, but the more links I build, the more I lose out on traffic. The main keywords stay around the same position, I suppose the loss in appearances and traffic that can be seen in webmaster tools is mainly due to long tails I do not check the rankings for. I want to ask you guys if anybody have experienced similar data? I suppose it might be due to the exact anchor tags that I have used 3 years ago, so I already started removing those to see if it has a positive effect. I wanted to ask you, maybe somebody has experienced the same and already knows the reason and a solution for this phenomenon?

Can anyone provide any useful insights on how they use latest news items to help with SEO?
Hello, I have heard about SEO's and PR types riding off the back of latest news items that can be tied to the products or services they are trying to promote. Recently I read about how an SEO had distastefully written an article using the name of a famous singer who had sadly passed away and used this event as an opportunity to write about a small business models 😞 Can anyone provide any useful AND ethical insights on how they use latest news items to help with SEO?

Linkbuilding on deep Blog pages
So I think I've got a good strategy going but wanted to get others feedback on it... I've been link building on a lot of blogs via reviews and giveaways. Frequently, these blogs give my posts limited exposure on the Home Page because the posts quickly get buried by new posts and eventually pushed off the home page to the "older posts" pages. Sometimes, reviews never even touche the home page because they live one level down on a "reviews" page which typically has 0 inbound links and low page authority. In these cases, I will use OSE to find the blog post with the strongest back link profile and request a link on that page instead. Typically, these posts are 2-3 years old so the bloggers are usually happy to give an old page some action. I'm a bit concerned though..Since these pages are frequently old, their content has not changed for years. Essentially, the pages have gone stale. Am I getting any benefit from these links? They typically have the 2nd best Page Authority on the Domain, but I'm wondering if the lack of fresh content kills all the value.

What are your experiences with outsourcing linkbuilding?
For us, any indian/3rd world linkbuilding vendor - do NOT hire them, they will ruin your link profile. If you give them very specific directions & find the right company/guy they can be decent for guerilla (blog/forum/etc) linkbuilding. What are your experiences?
