I like around 20%, but probably best look at the niche average. Or look at the most natural link profile in that niche.

RE: What is the optimal link profile?
A good idea is to get the link profiles of all your competitors on page 1. Then break all their links down by type, you will then get a good idea of what it takes to rank in that niche. If you aren't hot on excel, you could try cognitiveseo - they give this type of link profile breakdown... very useful

RE: One Domain or Four?
A massive part of SEO if getting domain authority, this is what you would split by having different sites...everything would get diluted.

RE: Outsourcing social media optimization
Most people don't understand social media, even people employed as social media managers!! If you are serious about social you would do well to outsource to someone who knows their s*#£$.

RE: Link from Dr. Oz web site not being seen, what are we doing wrong?
The head section of this page has:
NAME="ROBOTS" CONTENT="NOINDEX">
Which is why this page is not indexed by Google too.

RE: Tracking Links Tool
You could also look at cognitiveSEO.
I wouldn't worry about them because they will be impossible to undo.

RE: Major Ranking Drop
So you are saying you have been only building links for 3 months, but looking at OSE the Canon TSi page has 425 linking domains and canon 7D 751 linking domains?? This is way too many for that time frame IMHO. I would say you have tripped a filter. Wait 60 days and see if it comes back up... it should do.

RE: Should we fire our SEO Vendor?
Is that one of Distilled's link building packages?

RE: Following influential bloggers and editors on Twitter
You missed the 3rd option, follow them from a specially created bot account

RE: Where to host viral campaign content?
If you self host the videos on your own site, its unlikely Google will actually display them in the SERPs for your keywords.

RE: How does this domain have a valid pr8?
You used to be able to map a domain onto a high PR site and it would mimic the PR after a while.

RE: Using differing calls to action based on IP address
Why don't you just block the other pages, so you only have your standard canonical page being indexed? You can then cloak the content by IP, but remember Googlebot always crawls from the US so make sure it is seeing the standard version.

RE: Outgoing affiliate links and link juice
Just do internal redirects on your affiliate links e.g. yoursite/go/affsite redirect to aff site.
You then block the /go/ folder in robots.txt
Hope that helps!!

RE: How do I get quality, relevant backlinks?
"...it is slow and tedious" I'm affraid that's link building for you. The longer and harder a link is to get, the better it is likely to be.
There are lots of different tools you can use to find places... here is one http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HwraahDiDm8

RE: Keyword Rich Domain Redirects to Brand Name But How Will SEO Work For It?
Agree with @Daniel - G has also lowered the value passed by such 301s. Once had a client who had 50+ redirected sites to his main site, I had to tell him to stop!
