      Hi Diane, it all starts with Content.

      To increase the authority of your pages and website overall, you'll need to create and distribute Authoritive content on the topics that are appropriate for your site/business.

      With this authoritive content, you'll likely get some natural inbound links from other authoritive websites in your categories, which will help for sure.

      So focus on high quality, interesting, unique, valuable authoritive content, distribute it well and you'll start to see your Authoritiveness increase. Tools are for research, measurement and analysis, focus on the Content and the Distribution of it.

      Regards, Simon

        Get links from relevant websites, with high authority. Its hard to do, hard to fake, hard to manipulate, but if you create good content, sooner of later you will earn them.

              Under the 'no panacea' category, Simon and Alan are right.  Authority means just that and the best way to become one and hence give your website some is to display it online.  It's hard and time consuming but it's the only method that builds and lasts.

                  Many new comers to SEO have a simular attitude as you, I mean buildmyrank.com and fiver.com is about as low quality as you can go. Have you not heard of the panda updates, have you not read Matt Cutts on article posting?

                  My advice, edit your post and remove your embarrassing advice before others see it, and dont try to be rude, even those that do know what thea are talking about should avoid being rude.

                  As for 126 #1’s, I don’t think you understand the aim of SEO, its not to get as many #1s as you can, it’s to get traffic that you can convert to money.
                  Tell me when you have #1 for “Real Estate California”, and making money.

                  by the way is this your company website?

                  http://deltrico.com/

                  And you personal web site
                  http://www.bravotiger.com/

                  Which one do you have the 126 #1s on?

                    I don't know you, I find you extremely rude and mis-informed. I take offence to your comments which I do interpret as offensive.

                    If you actually read the words that were written, you'd see that 'actively doing something about building links' that you correctly mention, is covered in my answer.

                    In the first paragraph ('distribute authoritive content' which is link building) in the second paragraph, quite obviously, and again in the final paragraph with another mention of 'distributing it well'.

                    There is no place for rudeness and personal attacks here in this community and I hope you are removed from it before you offend anybody else.

                    Simon

                            Thank you for the support on here. I have to say that i am shocked by the comment made by the person who i do not feel is worth mentioning. I am very knew to all this and read a lot and i was always taught that if you want to learn then you should read, listen and ask lots of questions.

                            There is a saying, no question is a stupid question unless you think it is stupid yourself.

                            I write lots of articles daily not just on my sites but also on lots of article sites to try and gain a reputation.

                            I find with the article sites that i am having loads of my articles put around the net on lots of different sites each day but they do not add the link or name to the article which makes me feel i could be wasting my time.

                            I am looking at ways to increase my brand as well as increasing my page authority.

                            I write on average around 40 articles a day, some for my sites and some for article sites but with the negative responce i am getting from article sites and i am now considering just keeping the articles for my own site but as i have read, there are thousands of sites that have great content that are updated daily but get no where and that is because they do not have the link juice or page authority. and i do not want to make this mistake.

                            I do not want to write lots of great content and then have only a small amount of people read it.

                              Diane,

                              40 articles a day sounds kind of high for developing quality articles that are the types that people would want to link to. I know some people who work 40 hours or more on a single post -- but then that post gets links, views, comments, etc. for years to come.

                              You may want to rethink quality vs quantity on posts, and spend more time on fewer posts.

                                by trade i am a professional writer and have wrote books as well as articles and i also use to have my own glossy magazine.

                                The hours i work at the moment trying to create a brand for my sites is from 6am in the morning till around 12 midnight and i work six days out of seven.

                                If you have the knowledge then it is not a problem in writing them. I have been asked in the past to write for different sites where i would have earned a very good revenue per week for a lot less hours, but my aim is to get my sites up there and working properly and creating readers.

                                The articles are quality as that is not a problem. The problem is, the articles that i have been writing are not getting linked back to my site because they are taking away the part that says who it has been writen by and the link address

                                  Hi Diane

                                  There's an awesome White Board Friday video by Rand entitled 'Article Marketing + Submission for SEO' which is well worth a view, seems like it will provide some useful ideas and suggestions for you with your article marketing.

                                  It is a real shame to be giving high quality topical content away to other sites that benefits those sites but not your own.  There are ways to address this issue, such as:

                                  • being really selective over the sites you distribute your content to and insisting that they provide a link back for the privilege of using your content (though not always an easy task granted)
                                  • guest blogging instead of writing so many articles
                                  • producing different types of content such as Infographics that are generally more likely to provide a link back to you
                                  • consider some Video content which other sites would want to embed on their site

                                  Also, Google's Search Plus Your World (and an SEOmoz post here) is worth reading up on and viewing the video.  Ensure that your website has the Publisher link between your website's pages and your Google+ profile. Also ensure that your articles link to your Author page (about you page) on your website and that that page links to your Google+ profile with an Author link.

                                  Regards

                                  Simon

                                    Thank you simon, i will watch that now and have a read. I have been interested about videos but not really got a clue on how to edit etc. I have bought myself a podcast setup, which i bought for myself and my daughter who is at college, so i will start to learn that and see how that goes.
