          Hello Guys,

          I run a coupon code website, which by its very nature does not contain the most compelling of content.  As you can probably understand, not many people are going to want to link to a page which lists a number of coupons relating to a specific online retailer.

          I am really struggling to come up with new and innovative ways of attracting links and wondered if anybody was in a similar position to me or could offer some advice.

          Would love to get some feedback.

          Thanks!

            Hello,

            You could also create a campaign, let's say "Smart Shopping" and promote the idea. You can start by creating a mission page where you can tell people about the idea behind the coupon website, and ask for their support. For example you could create badges "I'm a smart Shopper" or something similar, badges that visitors could take and add on their website. In this way you could gain backlinks without actually doing any linkbuilding, you can earn a lot of visibility including in social media, and so on.

            Just make sure you mission and arguments are strong, and you coordinate your content marketing efforts in this direction.

            For the  blog you could even write case studies, or reviews for Extreme Couponing - a reality TV Show.

            These are just some ideas you could use. I would also urge you to watch this Mozinar: http://a-moz.groupbuyseo.org/webinars/strategic-web-marketing and this great video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u4ZoJKF_VuA for inspiration 🙂

            And an example of a support page with badges: http://www.protectiamediului.org/sustinere/

              I'd start by setting up a blog on the website. I'd then write up articles related to any current offers that specific companies are running and embed the coupon code within them. Also, utilise socoal media as much as possible - get in touch with the companies that you list coupons for and see if you can run joint competitions across social media. Another great way would be to do some guest posts on other sites about topics like 'how to save some money through using coupons' etc and gain some links back to your site.

              Hope this gives you something to go on!

                Why have bots (including googlebot) categorized my website as adult?

                How do bots decide whether a website is adult? For example, I have a gifting portal, but strangely here, it is categorized as 'Adult'. Also, my google adsense application to run ads on my site got rejected - I have a feeling this is because googlebot categorized my site as adult. And there are good chances that other bots also consider it an adult website, rather than a gifting website. Can anyone please go through the site and tell me why this is happening? Thanks in advance.

                Should You Link Back from Client's Website?

                We had a discussion in the office today, about if it can help or hurt you to link back to your site from one that you optimize, host, or manage. A few ideas that were mentioned: HURT:
                1. The website is not directly related to your niche, therefore Google will treat it as a link exchange or spammy link.
                2. Links back to you are often not surrounded by related text about your services, and looks out of place to users and Search Engines. HELP:
                1. On good (higher PR, reputable domain) domains, a link back can add authority, even if the site is not directly related to your services.
                2. Allows high ranking sites to show users who the provider is, potentially creating a new client, and a followed incoming link on anchor text you can choose. So, what do you think? Test results would be appreciated, as we are trying to get real data. Benefits and cons if you have an opinion.

                How do you change the 6 links under your website in Google?

                Hello everyone, I have no idea how to ask this question, so I'm going to give it a shot and hopefully someone can help me!! My company is called Eteach, so when you type in Eteach into Google, we come in the top position (phew!) but there are 6 links that appear underneath it (I've added a picture to show what I mean). How do you change these links?? I don't even know what to call them, so if there is a particular name for these then please let me know! They seem to be an organic rank rather than PPC...but if I'm wrong then do correct me! Thanks! zorIsxH.jpg

                Footer Link in International Parent Company Websites Causing Penalty?

                Still waiting to look at the analytics for the timeframe, but we do know that the top keyword dropped on or about April 23, 2012 from the #1 ranking in Google - something they had held for years, and traffic dropped over 15% that month and further slips since. Just looked at Google Webmaster Tools and see over 2.3MM backlinks from "sister" compainies from their footers.  One has over 700,000, the rest about 50,000 on average and all going to the home page, and all using the same anchor text, which is both a branded keyword, as well as a generic keyword, the same one they ranked #1 for. They are all "nofollows" but we are trying to confirm if the nofollow was before or after they got hit, but regardless, Google has found them. To also add, most of sites are from their international sites, so .de, .pl, .es, .nl and other Eurpean country extensions. Of course based on this, I would assume the footer links and timing, was result of the Penguin update and spam. The one issue, is that the other US "sister" companies listed in the same footer, did not see a drop, in fact some had increase traffic.  And one of them has the same issue with the brand name, where it is both a brand name and a generic keyword.  The only note that I will make about any of the other domains is that they do not drive the traffic this one used to. There is at least a 100,000+ visitor difference among the main site, and this additional sister sites also listed in the footer. I think I'm on the right track with the footer links, even though the other sites that have the same footer links do not seem to be suffering as much, but wanted to see if anyone else had a different opinion or theory. Thanks!

                Article submission, and how to build backlinks for Ecommerce? [HELP]

                Hi guys, I have a question, for high quality backlinks apparently you go to these article websites where you submit your site such as Ezine etc etc, however is it just one article you submit to these as it'll look like duplicate content? Also can I have it on my site first? How does it work? Also I run an ecommerce website, how can I build backlinks to each product, theres over 200+ products and 1.6k subcategories. I would like to rank for as many as possible but getting an SEO company to do this would cost to much. Any ideas on how I should go about it?

                Can you block backlinks from another domain

                Wondering if this is somehow possible. A site got hacked and created a /data folder with hundreds of .php files that are web pages selling all sorts of stuff. We deleted the /data folder and blocked Google from indexing it. Just noticed in Webmaster Tools that the site has 35,000 backlinks from other sites that got hacked with the same way. Is there a way to block these sites? I am assuming there isn't, but wanted to see if anyone ran into the same problem. It is a wordpress site is that helps.
