      I'm just starting to SEO this site http://thefirmbusinessbrokerage.com/welcome and I'm having trouble with the crawl report data.

      First question, should I be building links to the site above or the main page http://thefirmbusinessbrokerage.com/ (which is a flash intro). If I build links to the flash page, what do I do to the forwarding URL to the welcome page to make it effective?

      Second question, why does the crawl data report show up almost completely blank? Is this site perfect or are there some onsite issues that I'm not seeing.

      Thanks for your support and guidance on this site. I'm not hosting the site, just building links and offering optimization advice onsite.

      JOE

        The flash intro could be why the crawl data isn't showing up. How many pages are crawled? Here's information from the help desk on some of the issues that affect Moz being able to crawl a site:

        http://seomoz.zendesk.com/entries/409821-why-isn-t-my-site-being-crawled-you-only-crawled-one-page.

        Others will be able to give better answers than I regarding the link building, but I wanted to get at least part of your question addressed here.
