Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Just to add to this: here is how you 301 in vbscript:

<%@ Language=VBScript %> <%' Permanent redirection Response.Status = "301 Moved Permanently" Response.AddHeader "Location", "http://www.domain.com/" Response.End %>

Ouch, they are nasty. Hiding the links like that is dangerous - super easy to detect and can be viewed as deceptive. I would leave the articles, but at the very least remove the CSS that hides the links. I would probably remove all the links in the article.

Of course, if the articles are pure junk (I'm not sure) then get some nice ones written and replace them.

I have raised this to the seomoz team a few times - it's a work in progress still. they are getting better, but my site still shows the same issues - duplicate content errors that even the semoz support team agree aren't really an issue because of canonical tags.

I suggest just ignoring that for now and waiting for an update.

I followed the steps I read in some help forums - basically deleting it from one account and then claiming it again. I just had to answer my phone to get a PIN and it all took just a day or two..

more linking root domains is almost always the answer, especially since you cannot "age" your domain (they may be older than you and benefiting from that). Just focus on quality links, not quantity (e.g. guest blogging)
