Alexa: is it worth paying for their subscription
-
For $9.99 you get an improved site listing i.e. logo and 2 direct links to your website? Are these links valuable from and SEO point of view? Has anyone taken out a subscription for this reason, even though they could be construed as paid links?
Many thanks, Peter

hi aspirant,
im using alexa for almost 2 years, as a free member but i noticed that my links don't count as much the other sites, here i want to know the experience.
So i was thinking that if pay for them then they would optimize my site view more and i think the number of links that could be counted by alexa can increase.
i mean Alexa are private company and there crawling for paid members should be better results and faster to achieve the results
you want => higher ranking on Alexa + higher number of backlinks counted by Alexa = higher ranking for Google
because there is sites they have thousands of backlinks with Alexa , i mean how is that.
so im going to pay for alexa this months and see if they will count my other links .
ill post back after i get the results.

Surely the links are no-follow?. I personally don't know anyone at all that pays for Alexa. Also, Is it 9.99 one time or per month?
Thanks

Does paying a reviewer for an impartial review violate Google's guidelines?
When a company pays for an impartial review from a website, should these links be no-followed? I am confident that paid positive reviews are seen as a manipulation of search, but is paying for an impartial review okay?

If you discount a subscription when the client links to you, does that classify as a paid link?
For example, we all subscribe to MOZ, but if we received a 25% discount on our subscription if we linked back, would that be considered by Google as a paid link, or would it be seen as a sales tool / promotion?

Toxic Link Removal-Better to Pay an SEO Firm or Can I Do It Myself?
Hi Jen: Recently an SEO audit from a reputable SEO firm identified almost 50% of the incoming links to my site as toxic, 40% suspicious and 5% of good quality. They are of the opinion that it is imperative to remove the toxic domains. The fee for toxic link removal is about $3,000.I would prefer to save the $3,000 but would prefer not to take the risk of screwing up my ranking if this is a complex procedure best left to SEO professionals. My assumption is that link removal will involve identifying the toxic domains, requesting removal and eventually submitting a Google disavow request. Can I do this myself or is there a big risk of screwing it up? Assuming it is safe for me to remove toxic links, would anyone suggest software of tools for doing so? Thanks so much.

Has anyone seen positive results from using Submiteaze to submit to directories? I know an SEM agency that uses it for clients' link building campaigns, but I don't know if it is worth buying. Are there better alternatives?
I would like to start a link building initiative at my company for a new website, and would like to know if the value of the links built using Submiteaze would be worth the money.

What article directories (if any) are still worthing posting to?
While article marketing my not be at the top of the SEO strategy heap, it has, thus far, had a place small place at the table. In light of the Panda-Farmer-Anti-Demand-Media-Content update, I'm re-thinking article marketing altogether. Which, if any, general article directories are still worth adding content to in terms of links and eyeballs? Should these general article directories be avoided altogether?

Is it really worth it to submit to Yahoo Directory for $300 per year?
The fee does not even guarantee inclusion - and if you are accepted, does that link really add enough value to justify paying an annual $300 fee?
