      I have a small question on your Mozzers!

      I have down in 30 days about 75 Backlink from 75 different sources of PR, National and International Press Release Domains.

      Some of them, are waiting for approval, from administrator, and some of them goes automatically published, but all have a good PR and PA&DA too.

      All 75 press release content was unique, 75 different contents, what do you think, are this links worth or not?

      THanks

        Hi MetiX

        It depends on a couple of things:

        1. 75 links in 30 days would be a lot for a small website, though probably not for a large website. It's all relative. If these 75 links in 30 days are a lot more than normal for your website, it is risking being flagged as suspicious link building. Too many links in a short time can be harmful.

        2. The quality and type of link matters;  if the links are Follow links then great, if they are Nofollow then they won't count in terms of SEO.

        So to answer your question, are the links worth it or not ~ take into account the above and you'll have your answer. Need to assess if 75 in 30 days is likely to stand out as a lot or not and see if the links are followed or not.

        Regards

        Simon

          Hi Simon.

          1. My domain is old, have a PR5, and PA:45 and DA:42

          maybe it's not danger!

          2. The links are 99% do-follow!

          What do you think now?

            Hi Metix

            The age and authority doesn't matter so much  in relation to your link question. It's the history of link building that the site has experienced that maters.

            For example, if you've been acquiring say 10 links per month for a long time and that suddenly increases to 75 links one month, that is risking getting flagged as link spamming as it's totally out of the norm.

            If you've been acquiring something closer to 75 links per month anyway, then it will look like normal activity and likely be no cause for concern from the search engines' perspective.

            It's good that the links are follow links, so long as 75 isn't too many. You'll be the best judge of that from your own experience of the website.

              Hi again Simon, ok you are right.

              I have down between 45 -60 /Monthly, and now i have down maybe 15more, but about 30% of 75 are not yed activated.

              But exactly what i like to know is:

              " Are the Press Release Backlinks good for Link Metrics and Ranking or not "

              If you have experience on link building service through press release, tell me please, if is a good method and way or not.

              Our Journalist have writed all 75 articles unique, and confirmed through copyscape, 80% of backlinks are without anchor text, is directly the link placed on content, 80% of articles at the end of content, maybe it helps, i dont know! How many time should i wait to see the effect?

                If your website has a history of acquiring 45 to 60 links per month, then 75 shouldn't cause any issues, should be fine, in terms of the number that is.

                • Q) Are the Press Release Backlinks good for Link Metrics and Ranking or not :
                • A) 75 press releases in 1 month is a lot of press releases, to have that many links coming from press release websites may be flagged up as suspicious, purely on the grounds that all the links are of the same type, links from press release websites. Usually, it's best to have a natural mix of links from various different types of websites.
                • A) It's a risk. Not all links are beneficial and 75 from press release websites is a risky strategy. It could work well for you, or it may not. Nobody can actually know until it's all happened, you'll find out fairly soon afterwards.  I'd take my best guess that if it's a one off with this many type of links from similar websites (all press release websites) then you'll be fine and rankings may improve, depending on the quality and relevance of the new links. It's not a strategy I'd do personally, I would have mixed it up over a longer period with many different types of sites linking in.

                  Hi Simon, thanks for your answer.

                  I am mixing links, some from directories, press release, articles, forum, guest blogging, etc..

                  One thing i forget to say, that i will cancel the unpublished press releases and than its the number under 50.

                  I have down always mixed strategy, some press releases,directories,etc.. but this time i make a mistake, hehe;)

                  Thanks Simon

                    Hi MetiX

                    Good, well done, a healthy mix of links is essential.

                    50 for now would be a more comfortable number than 75, good decision.

                    Hope it all goes well for you 🙂
