Links from Nextag/PriceGrabber
-
I have a eCommerce store over BigCommerce platform. It is possible to sell via Shopping Comparison Sites like:
Nextag, PriceGrabber, Bizrate, Shopping.com,
If I decide to advertise my products over those sites, will it be consider a trust link for Google?
Our store is new and we don't have links referring to us, I need solutions. Also, there is a yellow pages site, http://www.yellowpages.ca/ that ask for monthly fees to advertise on there web site, advertising will be business name, addressee, phone number and web site, will it be a positive link for Google or just a paid link?
This is our store:
Thank you for your help and support,

the higher the DA number the better, right?
-
Personally I would look first at the DA since this should provide insight into the domains strength on the web. I won't get into the metrics of how it is calculated since I would just be repeating the information that can already be found here -> http://www.seomoz.org/learn-seo/link-topics
Aim for high quality links on related sites and create link worthy content whenever possible and you shall see results!
Good luck

Just looking at the sites, it doesn't seem that these are high-value signals to Google (the Yellow Pages ads are triggered from Javascript and not likely crawled).
But, more importantly, this is less an SEO question than an overall marketing question. I wouldn't ask whether these are valuable to improve your ranking. It's really more a matter of whether they'll improve your business. If your customers use these sites to find information about your product, look at the cost of being there relative to the return it will generate to determine their value. They may not be good for SEO. But they may extend your brand's reach and need to be weighed against whether they're any good for your overall business.

New to SEO and using SEOmoz tools like the toolbar, can the number be useful in the toolbar for finding trust links. For example, the Root Domain number and the Page number what should I look for higher PA or DA or both?
Thank youy

While I'm not going to advocate the buying of links, I will say that in my opinion paying for a banner or text advertisement on high profile trusted and relevant site will not hurt your SEO goal at all. Where you have to be careful is the low quality 'spammy directories' that are dime a dozen out there.
For me it's pretty clear that you're not just buying a link, but advertising on a relevant business directory.

Googles stance on Back Links via a Badge/Form
Hey guys, Does anyone know what Google's stance is on backlinks that come via a form, WordPress theme or badge. For example if I offer website security and provide badges for websites that are malware clean (with a back link to my website) and 100 websites sign up to my website will this be deemed as bad practice in Google's eyes? Also if I create a free WordPress theme with a backlink to myself? The second question sounds like I'm providing content for a link which seems okay but the first one can go either way. Thanks

How much time does it take for the links to be forwarded to redirected link?
Hi there,
Link Building | | MoeezLodhi
Thank you for taking out some time for this question; I have changed the permalinks last week for a website.. I forgot to redirect old permalinks to the new one.. So I did 301 redirection, it has been 4-5 days since I did that but the links are not forwarded to the new Permalink so far.
How much time should I wait for the links to be forwarded to the new permalinks? Secondly, I am sure I have done the 301 redirect correctly, as when I go to the old url / permalink it directs me to the new permalink. So I am sure 301 is done correctly. Do I need to submit the sitemap again?0 -
Link Building - Affiliate Link Programs
I'm getting some conflicting information when researching this... I want to create the most organic link building strategy that not only gets high authority sites linking to a website, but relevant websites. I'm creating an affiliate link program where I link to partner and affiliate companies, who in turn link back to me. The question is where to put these links. I was initially thinking of putting them in the footer so they add credibility to every page, and in turn ask my affiliates to do the same thing. However; some sources say that Google no longer looks at links in the footer section. Is it true that Google doesn't count links in footer sections? And do you have any tips on creating this Affiliate Link Program?

Internal links
It can be bad for the site if I use various items to create links to a page that represents a specific keyword? The articles are relevant and anchor text is not only done on the keyword, but also by using words near the keyword in question.
