          Our company has several websites where visitors can request quotes for home improvement. I'm thinking of making each site deeplink to each of our other sites, to create more linking domains and make all our sites help each other.

          Is this a good idea? Or will Google recognize that i'm only promoting our own websites and see this as a bad thing?

            Thanks for the advice, all of you. Will start interlinking and secretly build the company's death star, to be unleashed on the public at a later time.

              Thanks! The big kickass site is in the planning, but will take some time.

              It's going to be potato guns for now, while we're building our battleship.

                Zsolt makes some good points

                It not a problem, it’s a natural thing to do.
                As far as PageRank goes if you link to every website from every website it will have neutral effect over all, but your worse ranking sites will get a boost at the expense of the higher ranking sites. You can alter your links to benifit a site you want to give a boost

                But since there is value in link text relevance, you should come out on top all over
                Having said that it’s better to link in a way that looks natural to your users.

                I would not have these as my only links if they are on the same ip number, but as long as you have a good range of links from other places it is ok to have links from the same ip number. i think people get a bit excited about same IP or same C-class.

                  And that is even a better advice than mine.

                    Google is really smart and knows that people have been manufacturing links this way for a long time.

                    In my opinion, a better idea would be to merge all of these little websites into one big kickass site.

                    You can do more damage to the competitor with one battleship than you can with ten potato guns.

                    Also... one big kickass site with tons of information and resources usually impresses the visitor more than a hotdog stand with a lot of links to similar websites.

                      If I get it right sites are based on the same topic, so interlinking them carries both user and search engine value (maybe a little bit less for engines than for users as google maybe knows that you own both sites so it gives less value to the links). When you do your linking just keep in mind what pages would you like to rank with and hw pagerank flows so do your job based on that http://perthseocompany.com.au/seo/tutorials/a-simple-explanation-of-pagerank (thanks ALan). Good luck!

                        Creating a subdomain or subdirectory for each major city for our main website...

                        If our website is abc.com I am wanting to create a subdomain or subdirectory for each major city for SEO targeting purposes. But I want each domain to go to our see the same content from the main website abc.com. What's the best way to accomplish this? Duplicating our main page over and over sounds terrible , especially when trying to make changes down the road. Should we create an alias for each location? example.. abc.com/new-york, abc.com-chicago, etc...? If we go that route how does google acknowledge that? Would that mess up our SEO or help? Thanks!

                        What Should be the URL of third party blog for my website

                        Hi All, What Should be the URL of third party blog for my website. Lets say if i have a website xyz.com (which provide pest control services in New York City) and I want to create third party blogs on platforms like blogspot, weebly etc so should i create the blog url as xyz.blogspot.com or i can use a keyword in the blog URL such as pestcontrolnyc.blogspot.com? Which URL would be the best as per Google's guidelines. Note: I have already have a blog within the domain as xyz.com/blog/ and i do weekly posting on this blog. But at the same time i want to create 1-2 third party blogs to get some backlinks from other sources.

                        Other websites copy content and giving a link back

                        Hi, I've just noticed a few back links in Google Search Console, I was excited. But when I saw the backlinks, 2 other websites that had completely copied my content and then gave a backlink to my website. Is this bad for SEO and would google penalise my website for this?

                        For example: On a website there are items in the news listing that point to articles about a company that appear on online news sites; items that point to collateral hosted by vendors we use, etc. What tool can be used to provide a list of these links?

                        1000 of links on my website ? is it good or bad

                        Hi guys my site: www.dorchdanola-netbutik.dk is a e-commerce store, and generally we have many links on all pages because of the many products and categories. Im not sure if this is actually bad or good? I've been told that it will definately harm my site when google crawls it. The thing is that google visit my site often and I still have good pageranks in google. So does it actually harm my site having all these products and categories? And what can I do about it if google see every page as duplicate content? I also link to my social pages like FB, G+, e.g. Should I put rel="nofollow" or rel="me" on these social links? Thanks guys!
