Welcome to the Q&A Forum

I did... and appealed and they say it's a community based system and to get more reviews.... coughs CON coughs... BUT one or two anti virus sites (the free ones) use there database to mark blacklisted site....

What were you webhosting company able to do?

What sort of problems did you have? Find it hard to solve?

I assume over time and with good links, content and traffic it will sort itself out...

Magento is a very good open source commerce CMS - and also support multiple front-ends. I totally recommend it BUT you will may need someone to help you set it up and customise it. Also it is a resource hungry solution so you would need to make sure your hosting can support it, some hosting companies will not even host a Magento site.

What are you trying to do? I assume you use BigCommerce as it's easy and needs no coding etc...

Happy to give you advise about it.

Hi,

I have a domain that I am working on that has a past we did not know about. Doing a bit of research it appears that back in 2010 the domain had a link to a virus or had a virus on the domain – because of this certain anti virus sites are blocking the domain. Interestingly Google, Norton, Firefox say the domain is fine.... IE, Kaspersky and a few still block it. I am going through and manually searching and trying to get them to agree the site is safe BUT I am having a problem with mywot.com. They refuse to take down the “reviews” staying its a virus site. Anything I can do? Any suggestions? Any legal action we can take?

Is there anything else I can do or should be doing to check else where?

Thanks in advance

Thanks for this. Guess the profile is not on site explorer site and also was curious about exploring the httpS domain but thanks anyway.

Hello,

What is best practise for dealing with alot of links.

I was thinking of breaking them download to alphabet pages i.e. all A on one page etc... BUT should I then make the links clickable on this list OR that they load to a sub company page which has a clickable link to there website.

Thanks. I am looking into putting Piwik on my server to have another source so I can compare with GA.

They are low quality blogs/sites. And do not seem relevant to your industry!! Not surprised the links vanished.

Do you want a link to a few of them and the company you employed?

Out of interest how did you find out a Google Penalty or is this just a guess best on the poor quality links?

How are you getting on? Still happy? What are the analytics like? Giving you anything you can't get from Google Analytics?

Right sorted....

They have a 301 redirect from www.japaneseautocentre.com.au TO www.edwardless.com.au

Hope this helps!

Also go and read my thoughts on Link Building Strategies on this other question...

Unfortunately Open Site Explorer is not perfect!!! The internet is big and it cannot index EVER site.

Have you tried using other backchecker tools? (sorry I can't think of any at the moment I will edit later)

They do have backlinks going to them:- i.e. A quick search and I found:-

Yes agree... if you are just focusing on the on-site SEO you are still a beginner... SEO is moving more towards marketing as well so you need people that can think outside the box as it is getting harder and harder to get a good link profile these days!

I'm not sure if it would de-index your site BUT it will definately not help. You need a balanced link profile from good authority sites with both followed and no follow links (obviously more followed). If you just have a link profile with just followed links and they are all from directory sites (which tend to have low authority - not all but most) you will risk google penalising you.

I would recommend creating a balance strategy to link buidling. Posting in Blogs with a high readership and good reputation, joining a popular and well used forum and actively get involved, a hand full of directories with non spammy links, social sites, news or information sites (email them and ask for a link).... These are just a few ideas... Also you want to make sure your links are balanced and use a variety of different anchor text and not overly optimised keyword text.

Google's algorithm is updated 100's of times a year so you never know when they will start penalising a certain type of link or text or tags etc...

EDIT: Found something that shows a great idea for a strategy and I strongly success you read it!

These don't bug anyone else.....

This made me smile! HA

Silly question time.....

Can Open Site Explorer work on twitter profile pages? Or is the fact twitter is on https still an issue for crawling open site explorer?

Cheers in advance

Hi,

I start a post on a popular internet marketing forum about how bad blogs - (i.e. the ones with one posts of over optimise spun garbage) - and the one page affiliate sites - trying to sell you something... (you know the ones) - were REALLY starting to annoy me and if/when something would be done by ISP's or Anyone really. Obviously google is aware of the issue with trying to push Google Plus to crowd source better search results. But with more and more sites popping up telling people how they can make money from having a niche website/page with adwords on it aren't we fast moving to a two tier internet.... How websites/pages exist purely to game search engines.... and will they ever disappear....

Sorry mini rant..... might even get some ideas for a blog post (not on a bad blog before anyone says anything)
