Duplicate content on site->citations? How important is it to change it?
-
Hi there,
I recently realised that the citations and directories i was building used the same content than the one on my website. I know this is not best practice. I will for sure make sure it doesn't happen in the future, but I am affraid of the ones i built in the past.
How much do you think this would affect my rankings, and do you think this is a priority to go through my citations and directories to modify it?

We recommend not having any duplicate content marketing on your website.
We had this problem with a summerhouse Bristol company, where some of the pages were duplicated, and what can happen is that this can sometimes negatively and adversely affect the organic Seo for that business, because it has duplicated text So, instead, take the time to write high-quality, unique content marketing for every page and blog post.

This is just an exemple (not really one of my clients) but lets say there is this paragraph of this web page: https://smallbusinesstaxaccountants.ca/about-us
"Small Business Tax Accountants (Canada) Inc. is quickly becoming an industry leader at accounting and bookkeeping for Canadian businesses by combining the latest templated documentation with highly qualified business professionals, in a truly unique formula!"
and on each of my citation and directory's description i am building, I am using this text as a description:
"Small Business Tax Accountants (Canada) Inc. is quickly becoming an industry leader at accounting and bookkeeping for Canadian businesses by combining the latest templated documentation with highly qualified business professionals, in a truly unique formula!"

Could someone be sabataging my site by bad backlinks?
Hello, As I have said before I am new to SEO and especially new to this type of software. I am trialing MOZ, ahrefs and MajesticSEO. I just used the Site Explorer on ahrefs and it showed me that a bunch of backlinks was created today but I haven't engaged anyone in "SEO" for many months. Why would this be? See the image for a screenshot. yhpUxFv.png

Somone is creating a ton of links to my site!!!
Today I looked at site explorer and found over 1100 linking root domains and over 750 linking c-blocks. My site was hovering around 200 linking root domains and 150 linking c-blocks. I have not paid anyone to link to my site... Is this one of my competitors trying to create negative seo for a specific key word? I've worked very hard to never try to build links and only get links naturally by providing good content that people would want to link to. Can all hundreds of new links hurt me? What can I do? my site is www.yakangler.com | | |

Does spinning content work any longer?
A few years ago, I used Free Traffic System, and spun a bunch of content to get links. I still have tens of thousands of these links showing up in stats. They were probably not good quality links. Will I get penalized if I pick up the spinning game again?

Links from multiple sites coming from the same server?
Hi SEO Mozers, As I structure my link building campaign I come across alot of directories some of which are located on the same server. If I am to place links on these sites is this is negative signal for big G? The reason I ask is because I see that a competitor has used these various directories and is ranking on the no 1 spot for a moderately competetive keyword. I am able to place links on the sites with almost no effort at all therefore even if it does not pass alot of link juice is it still worth it for me. But if this is seen as a negative I would not persue it. What is your thoughts on this? Thanks in advance, Ross

Value of a link from very large profile site
Hello We have an opportunity to get a link from a very large traffic site. It comes with a price tag, and Im wondering if it is worth it. Is it ok to mention the page and cost? It is the 5th largest internet site. Would be on their benefactors page. There are many other sites linking from the page, and its obvious they are on there for the link value. I know sometimes one link can do wonders for rankings, where thousands of others can not. But wondering if there is any way to quanitfy this. Is it worth it for the value of the backlink? If we link to the home page, the link juice (alot I hope) would pass through to the deeper pages, and increase their rankings for their target keywords? Thanks for your advise. Sam
