      I'm about to do a guest blog post on a pr4 domain.  Will I be getting an actual pr4 backlink?  I'm thinking since it's technically not going to be on the homepage forever since it's just a blog post and also a blog post has it's on page once you click on it I'm not going to get a pr4 backlink.  Correct?

        No problems Stewart happy to help.

        Yes that would be the case, as long as they aren't "SPAMMY" websites or those blogs selling links then of course it is safe to do so. That is link-building!

        Also be sure to not over target anchor phrasing, make it as valuable for the people reading the information as possible and you have a sustainable SEO strategy.

          Thanks for the quick response Michael.

          I have a couple pr2-pr3 sites.  If I make a blog post that has backlinks in them and I have it sticky so it stays on the homepage.  Would I be getting the pr link juice? and also is it safe to do?

          Thanks!

            Hi Stewart,

            Completely depends on the way the blog is setup. Some post your entire article on the homepage, some just a snippet. If as you say it is the entire homepage, you will have the PR4 backlink for "x" amount of time.

            From there it will be archived and you can check the PR of individual archive pages to get an idea of what PR they are, the domain and page authority for an indication of what you are getting in the long run.

              My Domain has a couple of badlinks decreasing my rankings, will disavowing them reduce my Domain Authority on Moz?

              Good day Every Body, I have a heart aching issue, my site (nightwatchng.com) amassed a number carnivorous backlinks, I have lost rankings, i studied my search traffic and discovered that I have been hit by Google Penguin Algorithm Penalty, I was forced to believe that those backlinks were built to my site on purpose just so my rankings will drop, I know the importance of link building and thats why i follow the white hat technique. Now the big question is, IF I DISAVOW THESE TERRIBLE LINKS FROM GOOGLE SEARCH, WILL MY MOZ DOMAIN AUTHORITY DROP FROM WHAT IT CURRENTLY HAS?? I also want to know if the Algorithm Penalty will affect the subdomain (news nightwatchng.com) of my site?

              Disavow domain ignored

              Hi We did a domain disavow some months ago and webmaster tools told us those links were not pointing at us anymore. But suddenly the same domain has appeared again in our external links list according to webmaster tools. Our disavow document still contains that same domain as a disavowed domain, so we don't understand why is still being taken into account. Thanks

              BLogs

              Hello, We wanted to start hosting our own blog and was wondering (long term) if we are using embedding links to our inner pages in our blog entries if it would be a problem with Google long term?  We have a designer that suggestes a custome look to match the site, and leave the wordpress plugin. Should we continue to contribute to blogger, and wordpress (free) if we are hosting our own blog? How important is a branded blog name?  We were going to host it and name it xxxxxx.com/ourblog Thanks so much!!

              Guest Blogging as an Agency

              Hi, I have the following problem regarding guest blogging. When sending out the pitch one can utilise the client's email so it appears coming from the business/client itself rather than an SEO agency. However the problem that I am facing is what author bio to use. Is it good to sign the posts as the internal SEO agency copywriters, as the client or I have found some suggesting to create a fake persona. If the client or client staff as the author bio is not a solution what is the best way? I hope my question is not confusing but this would really help me out. Thanks in advance Kind Regards, Conrad

              Good guest blogging communities?

              Besides My Blog Guest, does anyone know of any good guest blogging communities? The aforementioned, based on my few weeks of use, seems like a great community for guest blogging. Curious if any similar sites exist.

              Can link juice be passed in an iframe from domain A to domain B

              Need to give our web partners our booking form which must be loaded in an iframe calling back to our domain. Is it possible to pass any link juice from their domain loading our iframe back to us. Was thinking of a "Powered by" text link in the form footer, but I'm guessing the link needs to be outside the iframe. Would love to hear any thoughts or workarounds on this.
