Hello DP members, Are you familiar with the value of SEO footer links? For instance, if I sponsor or distribute a wordpress theme with footer links, do you think it will assist my SEO efforts? Any feedback you can give about this would be greatly appreciated.
This one is really about seo rather than usability and goes mainly into internal links structure. I am interested in your opinion here. How should a prefect seo footer look like? We are talking about general factors that would apply to blog same as structured photo gallery and even huge e-shops or whatever have most pages... I found myself struggling with good/bad effect of the following points? 1) Can seo footer have more links targeting the same page and using different keywords in anchor text? (e.g. keyword 1 > target 1, keyword 2 > target 1, keyword 3 > target 1, etc...) 2) Can seo footer have more instances of the same keyword in anchor text to target different pages? (e.g. keyword 1 > target 1, keyword 1 > target 2, keyword 1 > target 3, etc...) 3) Can seo footer anchor text link to the same page it appears on? 4) Is it better to link all pages on site together via links in seo footer, or use these to pick like 5 top pages and link to them in every footer? 5) Do seo footers need to be unique on every page? If so, to what extent?
Footer links are useless for SEO!! Watch the Matt Cutts video on it! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D0fgh5RIHdE
