Hello , Recently i have found out that my site does not have a good position in google but maintain a decent position in msn and yahoo. I was informed that my site has been backlinked to approximately 30 scraper sites which has resulted in bad ranking. Can anyone advise on how to to be ranked in google again. Thanks
Build high quality, relevant, targetted, natural backlinks to your site. This will help google realise your site is trustworthy. Make sure you don't link to any rubbish sites and make sure only good sites link to you.
just a question, i have an australian immigration site, currently im linking with travel and legal related sites. do you think it do some good in my rankings in google?
Take a look at all the sites that are linking to you and look at all the sites you are linking to. Ask yourself if the site is full of good content and whether its a useful resource or just a way for the owner to make a few $$'s from Adsense. Would you visit the site? And most importantly would you stay more than 5 seconds?
It all depends on how you manage your link building campaings. It is absolutely vital to have links from sites that are realates to the content of your site. If you have a travel related website, you should try hard to get links from similar sites. If google sees your link from more and more travel related sites, it will eventually give you good ranking. Remember good ranking is not based on linking building alone.
I have a hotel site. There are a lot of sites that could be kind of realted for example car rental firms, boat rental, fishing sites, adventue sites, skiing sites. A fishing site could be related to me because my hotel is near the ocean and some guests might wanna go fishing but to a robot it´s not related. So i dont know. A poker site could also be related, my guests maybe like some online gambling. It would be unfair if google demoted me for linking to such sites i think.
You cant be damaged by sites linking to you. Ony if you link to "bad" sites may you be penalized. Remove all links on your pages to sites that YOU wouldnt visit. Peace out :::Jamie:::
You have a hotel site therefore any business with 100 km is related to your site. Exchange links with local websites and produce guides on where to eat out and which bars to go to. In return they can publish a review of your hotel. You can exchange links with a local casino but I would not bother linking to a poker website.
