      I just created my first press release at prlog.org using the free account, which lets you have one outgoing followed link.

      Question:  Should I link to my press releases from my web site?  I made the mistake of doing link exchanges in the past, and worried Google would detect it as a link exchange.  It would be nice to link to the press releases on my site while still getting the benefits of having an incoming link from a site with PR 6.

      Is prlog.org a good site for press releases?  Is there another one you recommend that is free or inexpensive?  Is there any benefits to using multiple press release sites, with different content on each site?

      Thanks!!!

        Cameron, I link to my press releases from other navigation than the home page mainly because I believe the content on the home page is to get the visitor interested to go deeper into the site. I don't think it's bad to link to them from the home page but I think you will see the value of the link isn't that much greater than linking to it from a subsequent page.

          Cameron, I always recommend businesses link to their press releases. Doing so provides value in different ways. First, if there are no links and no references to it, it basically has no value, Second, you get a little bit of third party validation from it. Third, you can get visitors from it and brand recognition. I know of releases that we published in 2005 that still get hundreds or thousands of visitors each month, because they have incoming links. Don't base all your decisions on what immediate link juice you might get from an action you take, because it may hurt you some time in the future. And yes, prlog is good. I have some I will send there this week.

            Thanks for the reply.  Has some very good info on press releases.    My only question is, is it a good idea for me to link to the press releases on my home page? Is it standard for businesses to link to the press releases, or do they just let clients find the press releases on Google.

            Thanks again.

              Hi Cameron, A press release will help your website gain awareness in your industry. It is a fantastic way to announce a grand opening of a new business, a large sale or promotion, a unique tool, feature, movie file, content or other resource.

              Submitting the press release help the social media for business online press release distribution and social networking are powerful marketing tools but combined they are an unstoppable force for instant online exposure.

              For more details see the below advantages of press release:

              Advantages: They are a fast, free, easy, way to get your message and your company name all over the internet. Some of them are fairly high page rank which passes along some good link juice. I've gotten my clients 6 of the top 10 Google listings on the front page of google, for the keywords we selected, using free press release sites. (There's never a guarantee of this, of course; Google does what Google wants.)

              Yes prlog.org is good site for press release.For more details for the press release websites see the link below:

                Disavowing Links

                I need some advice... I've noticed our link profile has increased with many comments links --- something I certainly have not pursued manually. I'm new to disavowing links. However, before I go ahead and disavow them, I'd like to ask how harmful these links are and would you recommend this is something I can do myself (relatively novice SEO) or if you'd recommend someone who could do this for a reasonable cost. In one instance, the link from this comment thread is with the anchor text, "porn"... Certainly not something we want to rank for, haha! I look forward to your advice

                Spammy links

                Hi Guys, I have a case which seems to occur more often for our customers. The websites of our customers seem to receive tons of backlinks from websites all over the world (China, Russia, Ukrain, etc). It’s spam we never asked for, we didn’t buy any dodgy linkbuilding packages or anything. Do any of you guys have experience with this matter? We try to disavow the links but it takes too much time and we will never manage to disavow 100% of all links. Examples are www.keukensduitsland.nl and www.m2beveiliging.nl Hope anyone has experience and maybe even solutions for this matter. Thanks!

                Nasty links

                Hi My first q on here (hoorah!), and it's about links (boo!). I've got what appears to be a handful (but worryingly, increasing in number) of links pointing to my site like this: http://condos.mrgulffront.com/florida-condos-for-sale/320-scenic-gulf-drive-miramar-beach-fl-32550-mls-567591/ I've made contact with the sites concerned, and had only one positive response who flatly denied all knowledge of it. The issue (as far as I can see) is that as in the above example the links (on the bottom right in the grey box) are forever changing so not always visible. Can anyone offer any guidance as to these kinds of nasty links.... I'm right at the v beginning on this "path of seo understanding" so please don't assume prior knowledge! Thanks in advance.... tom

                What is a good ratio of total links to linking root domains?

                Is 100 total links for every linking domain too high? I suppose I could also look at ratios of sites that are doing well in the rankings.

                Footer Links And Link Juice

                I'm starting to learn about link juice and notice in GWMT > Traffic > Internal Links, that the list is in this order by the links counted on each page. Some are in the footer and some are in the header, with some being more important than others commercially i.e. /register /privacy /terms /search /sitemap /disclaimer /blog /register So I am wondering if I should add a 'no-follow' attribute to the footer links i.e. privacy, terms, disclaimer and leave the others as they are? Does this help retain link juice on each page where the links appear? Or am I missing the point all together? This is my website: http://goo.gl/CN0e5

                Do Press Releases sites still worth to engage in terms of link building and domain authority building? I heard they don't deliver link authority anymore? If they they still do,  Which top 10 free and paid site would you recommend? What is the up-to-date link building method would you recommend? Thank you very much!

                Do links within imbeddable widgets carry link juice?

                I'm dipping my toes into infographic design. On of my desired outcomes is to gain links by having other sites embed my graphic. I'm considering using Tableau's interactive data visualization software to do so; thus creating a widget, embedding it on my blog, and including the embed code for others to post. Is it possible to include a juice passing link in such an infographic?  I know its possible to include links inside the tableau graphic but not sure if they have straight SEO value. If these links are not juice passing would it be better to go with a simple image link that passes value?
