Last post we talked about on-page SEO.  Let’s talk about the other half - off-page SEO.

Off-page SEO is really refering to link building.  As you probably would know, search engines counts the links pointing to a website as votes to its importance.  The more links pointing to it, the more important the site is, hence the PageRank would increase accordingly.

To qualify for a high PageRank, it is important to:

1. Obtain natural links - make sure your links are not ‘bulk buy’ links from crap sites or link farms.  (One saying is that you can’t really control who links to you, so Google can’t really penalize you.  Well, that’s true.  But still, try to avoid anyway.)

2. Obtain links from relevant websites - if you sell cars, you may want your link is from automobile related sites.

3. No pay links - search engines don’t really like paid links.  If you want to buy links, well, it is not encouraged.

Quality of the links are more important than quantity.  But quantity is also very important.

Yes, you have read the title right.  Microsoft is going to launch their own social bookmarking site. Apart from Live bookmark.

A preview version should be available for MSDN and TechNet in a very short time (probably within a few days).

Not a surprise - this new social bookmarking site allows users to:

• Bookmark a site on the web
• Tag it
• Bookmark a site on the upcoming “My bookmark” tool

Why is there another social bookmarking site?  MS reveals that the new site should open another stream of advertising income, and also to collect tag data to improve search result relevancy.

We talked about link building. We talked about building links fast. But one more factor affects your link building effort - they have to be good links.

To define good links, they have to be:

1. From a website relevant to your topic. If you have a jockey club website and asking for a link from a web designer, it is less valued. If you are a web designer asking for a link from a web host, then it is probably considered a better link.

2. From government and educational websites. It is generally believed that links from .gov or .edu links are better.

3. From a page with less links. Try to ask for a link placement on a page with less than 10 links. And of course, higher pagerank.

4. Key phrase rich. Something you see very often: click here, buy now, www.website.com etc doesn’t help. Search engines wants to know what is on the website that it is linked to, and to do so, they read the anchor text.

Don’t get a software that submits 5,000 links for you in one single click. It is not going to do any good for you. In fact, you site might be banned by search engines if you do so.

How do you distinguish between blog comments and blog spams? Why does people hate spams so much?

For me, even people want to leave a spam on my blog, I probably won’t delete it straight away. All they want to do is to place a link on my pages. I don’t really mind. As long as the comment is *somehow* relevant, or even if it is just a simple “Thank You”. I would be more than happy to leave it there.

However, for the obvious spam and for those that didn’t even make any effort to write something but just crap, I would delete straight away. I don’t like them. But then, I won’t feel angry, too. Why do we have to be angry about such a small thing.

Everyone is trying to do business here. If you don’t like the comment, just delete it. Don’t make a big fuss about it. People would only feel that you are such a jerk and narrow-minded person. What good is it to make a big fuss about such things? Only downgrading your personality.

For link-builders, I understand that you may need to put some links on blog comments. You just need to really read the post and put something relevant. In this case, you won’t get into any trouble.
