Eric Ward's urlwire.com - worth a $500 investment?
-
I'm after a turbo boost (direct and indirect) to my site's SERPs.
How beneficial is URLwire.com? Anyone here used it? Worth $495?
Given that Matt Cutts has said links from PR sites don't pass link pop, would URLwire fall into this category? (I'm aware the idea is also to generate backlinks from other referring sites).
Thanks

Subscribe to Ward's linkmoses email newsletter, and purchase the archives. The insights you will gain will be invaluable. I'm not sure that a single link will "turbo boost" your sites rankings. His email archive spans over 2 years and is about 300 pages - a much better investment in my opinion.

If you have content on your website that gets action when shared on Facebook, Twitter, Stumbleupon, Slashdot, Reddit and similar websites then you have something that might get a little attention from Eric Ward's service.
Value to the visitor.
If you have that then it might be worth the $495.
See, it is more up to YOU than it is up to Eric. He is simply going to share your site with another circle of people. He doesn't accept every person who is willing to pay.
I used his service a few years ago for relatively new sites that I felt had very good content. I think that I got ROI but it can be hard to measure. Since then social sharing has really taken off and I just allow that to happen on its own.

Links from PRWeb press release violate Google's quality guidelines?
My site has had a manual action performed on it by Google indicating that I have inbound links that fall outside of their quality guidelines. I did my own research, found what I thought was the issue, had the links removed and requested reconsideration. Google's response surprised me in that they highlighted two specific pages with links that were the direct result of valid press releases and a publisher picking up our release off a wire service. Has anyone else seen this occur? Anyone had a case successfully reconsidered? I realize that I don't need to do anything at all as the manual action is in effect and will stay that way, discounting those links, but I would rather a) not have any manual action against my site and b) know for the future so this doesn't happen again. Also, is this applicable for guest blog posts, which effectively create the same type of backlinks? Thanks

Is it worth 301 redirecting an old backlink from a 404 to a landing page?
I was reviewing the 404 report in webmaster tools, when I found a 404 back link from a 10 year old forum topic on a very high DA site. It seems the poster did a direct hotlink to a pdf that was on our site a very long time ago, but is now gone so you get a standard "can not be found" page on our site. Is it now worth redirecting the url to an appropriate landing page, considering the age of the post/ link and the sites DA, or is it not worth it because of the age of the link, its a forum, and we are still getting some juice from it anyway despite it being a 404, and won't get much more out of it. Just want to know it good practice if I find many such links (very old links to now 404 pages) Thanks

How do sites have so many 'total links'?
I've been analyzing some of our competitors: essayedge.com and papercheck.com Both sites have a large number of 'total links'... about 93,000 each. The former has about 1,200 linking root domains while the latter only has 195. Even for 1,200 linking root domains, 93k total links seems like a ton to me. Our site has 101 linking root domains and only 299 'total links'. I'm quite new to this whole SEO game and admittedly still learning a TON. Am I missing something here? How do sites generate so many links? This seems nuts to me. Thanks for any help!

Is backlinkbuild.com considered against Google policy?
I guess it IS buying links, but I have read many reviews saying they are ok (Which might just be part of thier network of sites :)) It seems like cheating, but they say they do the leg work, that it's not just automatic junk links. Any experience with them? Thank you!
