Hi all,
Like many people, I was affected quite a bit by the Penguin/EMD updates over the past year. My primary link building technique was through networks like ALN/BMR/etc.
I have re-built my sites again as I didnt want to lose the content. But now I am trying to figure out the best way to backlink so I dont lose them again. I know I have to lower anchor text diversity, but should I be building Web 2.0s, blog comments, etc? Are blog networks like ALN at all safe to use anymore if you use them for only a couple of links?
The sites I have built are all about 50+ pages in size. Some pages are more important than others but I do want to try and rank most posts on Page 1. Typically I am competing against e-commerce sports stores with age, and a bit of PR but no links.
Anyway, any advice is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
