Looking for a link building quote

[PI Guy]

Please pm me only for your quote for building 1000 links.

 

[OldWelshGuy]

Is this for your own site (as in the PI industry) ?

 

[PI Guy]

yes it is AlliedDetectives

 

[peterjhale]

Crikey - 1000 links - that's easy, peasy and would probably burn your site

What you want are on topic reputable links from decent websites - now that's a lot harder and there are many ways to do it from begging, blogging and providing useful linkable content (where's fiscix when you need him )

Be careful of what you wish for

 

[OldWelshGuy]

Agreed, timescale will be the deciding factor. 1000 poor quality (obviously manufactured) links will not be good.

 

[peterjhale]

[edit]

looking at your site and code you are in need of more than links - proper, decent SEO is required also

well a sitewide on a forum will accomplish his goal but do no good

Can you provide an example of a directory that has PR6 on an inner page? In fact I'll make it easy, a directory with PR3 on an listing page.

 

[mubin]

http://botw.org/top/Home/Homeowners/

btw, I never stated what the inner pages of the directories PR would be.

As your signature clearly states who cares about PR? The indication of PR shown here was just to show that the actual pages being submitted to were in fact indexed by Big G

 

Jorge I don't think your lack of links is your problem for a higher ranking.

The 1000/2000 directory submissions offered will help you, but this is how link building goes:

Cheap link building
-Lowest quality, i.e. the value each links provide will be very low (like directories)
-Lowest lifetime - cheap links are more likely to be on sites that will disappear, get de-indexed, get their PageRank taken away
-Least in accordance to search engine guidelines, i.e. the links will be on sites that solely exist for selling link juice

Link building
-Links will likely provide more value per link
-Links are more likely to be on legitimate sites that provide value and passive traffic, i.e. they are not going to disappear any time soon
-Links will more likely look like natural links on the interveebs

The later will be a lot more expensive and you probably won't get a fixed price per link. Fixed price link building is almost def. going to be manufactured links.

Well Explained!

I very much agree with this. Getting good links takes time, and can not be set at a price per link.

Saying that I believe that directories do help, and they can be set at a price. But the majority of links need to be sourced accordingly and priced accordingly too.

 

[PI Guy]

Thank you everyone for your time and comments 9sorry I've been away from my desk for the last couple of hours doing some surveillance) . A couple of you have alluded that the site needs to be optimised further or perhaps first? I would welcome any comments in that area too. I had thought it was fairly well optimised already but am always willing to be further advised as I am no expert though have had expert help in the past.

 

[david64]

I very much agree with this. Getting good links takes time, and can not be set at a price per link.

Good links also aren't necessarily going to help you rank for commercial terms. I have a lot of good links from high traffic sites like noupe.com, but they are providing me no extra boost for my commercial terms as people will generally link to your non-commercial content (like blog posts) as opposed to your commercial pages (like your homepage). Only continual churning out of quality will start to get you good links to your homepage. If you want to outsource that to an SEO (company), best be prepared to have a 4 figure budget every month for the rest of your business's life.

Yeh. There seems to be a lot of people bashing directory submissions while offering and/or advertising the service. Simple fact is they still work. A lot of people have been championing the "Google is starting to ignore low quality links" corner, but I don't agree with that. Low quality links just don't pass good value, so you need to get them in the 1,000s of 10,000s for them to kick in.

A while back I ran a test by submiting pages to free-for-all links pages, which in my opinion are the worst source of links there is. I was submiting pages with longtail keywords as the link text and low and behold, the Google cache reported that Google was taking the links into account in every case:

It looks pretty good at a first glance, although there is one glaring issue IMO.

I'd say your on-site SEO is good, but can be improved upon and I would look at enhancing the usability and level of engagement of the content. In particular this page:

http://allieddetectives.co.uk/our-pi-services.html

Could do with a spruce up.

I also think you could probably squeeze a lot more traffic out of search engines with some in-depth keyword research.

However, your site really is much better than most. There is only one thing that needs to be changed ASAP.

Yes I have plans for that page, just hadn't got round to it yet.

What is that thing?

 

[david64]

What is that thing?

You have two versions of every URL on your site:

http://www.allieddetectives.co.uk/*
http://allieddetectives.co.uk/*

You should forward the latter to the former.

This can be an issue for two main reasons:
1 - links to one page will not count as links to the other
2 - can cause duplicate content

You have at least one link to the latter (http://allieddetectives.co.uk/), which is not counted as a link to the one that begins with www.

You are running on an Apache 2.2.8 server, so you can fix this by adding this to .htaccess file on your web space:

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^allieddetectives.co.uk [NC]
RewriteRule ^.*$ http://www.allieddetectives.co.uk/$0 [R=301,L]

That will tell search engines that the two domains should be considered the same.

If it doesn't work it will probably be because your host doesn't have the right Apache module enabled.

 

[PI Guy]

in fact I already have thast done. i don't know why its not working.

 

[david64]

in fact I already have thast done. i don't know why its not working.

All the pages on your site are being sent out with what is called a HTTP header status code of 304: Not Modified.

They should all be 200.

You probably have some problems on your server or there are issues with your .htaccess. You could paste it in here for a diagnosis. Rules need to be in a certain order in .htaccess. It can cause problems if they aren't.

Have you changed this, or does it actually say mysite.co.uk in the .htaccess file? If so, there is your problem. Change it to your real domain. Other than that, I can't see any issues.

 

[PI Guy]

it has my actual url in it. So then that not the issue but at the server end?

 

[david64]

I don't know. I have encountered servers that have odd mod_rewrite configurations, which is the module that is being used to modify the way your URLs are being handled.

the redirection of index.php is working. So it is enabled.

Try the below instead (with the domain changed). I made one change. I don't know if it will make a difference.

RewriteEngine On

RewriteBase /

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^[URL="http://www.mysite.co.uk/"]mysite.co.uk[/URL] [NC]
RewriteRule ^.*$ [URL]http://www[/URL].[URL="http://www.mysite.co.uk/"]mysite.co.uk[/URL]/$0 [R=301,L]

Redirect 301 /Index.html [URL="http://www.mysite.co.uk/"]http://www.mysite.co.uk[/URL]

RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /index\.html\ HTTP/
RewriteRule ^index\.html$ [URL]http://www.mysite.co.uk/[/URL] [R=301,L]

If that doesn't work try this:

RewriteEngine On
 
 RewriteBase /
 
 Options +FollowSymLinks
 RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^[URL="http://www.mysite.co.uk/"]mysite.co.uk[/URL] [NC]
RewriteRule ^/?$ [URL]http://www[/URL].[URL="http://www.mysite.co.uk/"]mysite.co.uk[/URL]/$0 [R=301,L]
 
 Redirect 301 /Index.html [URL="http://www.mysite.co.uk/"]http://www.mysite.co.uk[/URL]
 
 RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /index\.html\ HTTP/
 RewriteRule ^index\.html$ [URL]http://www.mysite.co.uk/[/URL] [R=301,L]

If that doesn't work, I can't give any more advice without the keys to the kingdom.

You could also try getting rid of this line: Options +FollowSymLinks

I can't think why you would have that in there unless you have a dedicated server.

 

[edmondscommerce]

you can do this in php as well if you want.

if(!preg_match('%www.mysite%',$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'])){
    header('HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently');
    header('Location: http://www.mysite.co.uk'.$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']);
    die;
}
