tag ten friends game!

I was tagged by my buddy @monotremeinafedora!

I don’t want to bore you all with my life story (or like 10 questions but whatever) so I’m gonna put a cut down here

Name: Katie! but tbh people call me Kitty on so many social media sites that if I saw my real name online I wouldn’t even process that it was directed at me

Gender: female

Star Sign: I’m vaguely aware that I’m a taurus but every time I see someone talking about astrology it gets super complicated and it scares me

Height: 5'4″

Sexuality: aro/ace

Hogwarts house: oof I read those books in third grade and I didn’t exactly spend much time taking internet quizzes in 2010 so I have absolutely no idea but I like the idea of Hufflepuff cuz they remind me of the Amity faction from Divergent (granted I wouldn’t last a day in the Amity faction but that’s not important)

Fav animal: imagine being able to pick a favorite animal lmao couldn’t be

Dogs or cats: the question above I didn’t answer bc I’m indecisive but this one I can’t answer because I have a cat and two dogs and how can I choose a favorite? Like my 8-year-old dog is so sweet and cute and she likes going on walks for at least an hour with me and I love her but my 8-month-old dog is a piece of shit who tears people apart but she’s also really cute and she can be really fun when she’s not giving you really bad bruises bc you made the mistake of trying to play frisbee with her and now you have to walk around looking like someone dropped a fridge on your arms for two weeks but then what about cats right like my cat was like 12 or 13 when I got him last year and he’s an old man and he just curls up on my bed all day and sleeps on my Supernatural blanket and then I go to bed and he sleeps on my sweatshirt on the floor until like 8 am when he decides it’s a good time to crawl on my bed and tap me in the face until I wake up and ahhhhhh I just love themmmmm

Hour of sleep: I spend at least 12 hours lying in bed with the lights out and my phone away every night but how much of that is sleep and how much is eternally cringing at my horrible life decisions is unknown

Blankets: I. LOVE. BLANKETS. I have to move my stuff into college on Monday and I had an existential crisis trying to figure out what to do with my blankets like my mom got me a super soft, super warm cat blanket for Christmas specifically for school so that’s gonna come and I wanna bring my Supernatural blanket bc that’s good for a warmer night and I wanna bring my Frozen blanket because it’s so warm and fuzzy and I wanna bring my snowman blanket I got as a Christmas gift from dance last year bc it’s so cozy and I wanna bring my super soft blanket I got from work for Black Friday last year bc it’s super soft but I wanna bring the yeti blanket with the hood and buttons and mittens built in which I got from work the Black Friday before that one because duh who wouldn’t want to bring that and I wanna bring all my blankets right except I also have two weeks at home after I move my stuff in and I won’t have space to bring more blankets when I move in on the 31st bc half my duffel bag is going to be my giant stuffed Perry the Platypus I got from a friend a few months ago so I’m leaving my snowman one on the couch downstairs and my work one on my bed and my yeti’s gonna hang out by the closet with my similar Olaf blanket (that’s meant for little kids and does not fit which I didn’t know when I bought but but at least I worked at Target at the time so I got an employee discount?) probably until I come home for Thanksgiving and I’ll take my yeti blanket back with me then and wow this was a really long answer but in my defense it was a very open-ended question

Dream Job: I’m going to school for nursing, so that!

When and Why I’m here: uhhh idk what exactly it means by “when” bc I made my main blog @kittyhazelnut and my Supernatural blog @gabrielsbackbitches in like 2017ish (or whenever it was my fav character came back just to die again a month later) but this blog i made in May (idk the date but it was whenever I posted my pinned) so take your pick for that one. Why I’m here? I was talking too much about Phineas and Ferb on my main and I decided to make a side blog for it with no intention of it getting big (I mean my marvel blog @marvelbutmostlyloki has been around for a year or two and it has, like, 10 followers so clearly side blogs don’t always work out in my favor) and then I posted that screenshot of Vincent tweeting about Perry the Platypus statues replacing Confederate statues and people decided to follow me and now I exist purely to promote the new Phineas and Ferb movie to casual Phineas and Ferb fans (no jk I do love promoting the movie to casual fans but I do most of that on Twitter. I found a whole bunch of fun people in the Dwampyverse fandom and it’s like our own little private party in a dark corner of tumblr and it’s honestly the most fun I’ve ever had in a fandom, and that’s coming from someone who’s been in the Supernatural fandom for five years)

Reason for URL: I use the phrase “I would die for _______” way too much in my everyday life and I couldn’t think of a witty URL so I went with that lmao

Current time: 8:55 pm and I should probably stop staring at a screen in the middle of a dark room at 9 o’clock at night if I’m planning on being up and out of the house with a full face of stage makeup on in under 12 1/2 hours for my dance comp whoops

And now, for the moment you’ve all been waiting for... TAGS! It said to tag 10 people and a lot of my peeps were tagged in Grayson’s post so I don’t think (?) I’m retagging anyone? I’m only tagging PnF people because I genuinely have no idea which of my IRLs and online friends from non-PnF-related-things would recognize this as my account lol. also half of these people are in the Perryshmirz discord bc that’s where my people live lmao

@myperryshmirtzblog @mushipper713 @necroticcoffee @grayblebayble @eathotchip-and-bi @sorryformybadenglish @ill-change-my-name-to-larry @momphineasandferbmadeablog @fcrbfletcher

Obviously y’all don’t have to do it if you don’t want to :) and if you didn’t see your URL but you want to do it anyway, go for it! You can even say I tagged you and no one has to know! in fact, wait a second...

@you

Look, you’re tagged! You should do it too!

i was tagged by @calmrry to give you a tour of my home blog, and I’m sorry this house is such a mess, but welcome, friends! It’s like this in spite (because?) of my wildly divergent aesthetic tastes--I literally can’t commit to just one thing, so I tend to be a bit lazy in the setting up, which translates into doing something impulsive yet neutral-ish in the moment, then letting it ride. It’ll take me yearsss to update headers, names, backgrounds, colors, avatars, etc. (and don’t get me started on themes--that’s one I actually MIGHT fix soon, if only so to somehow sort tags like #recap, #fic rec, #the squad, etc.). Anyway, yeah!

Header: Old gold shoes that I crave purely for the aesthetics

Icon: Drunk-ass Harry Styles in a Hawaiian shirt w/ “happy birthday” glasses

Description: Fairly dry recap meant to cover a LOT in very little because I hate when description text wraps

I'm into One D and kitsch and various other random things

This is meant to warn people who follow me for kitsch but not the D, and vice versa, lmao. The wildest thing is that when I first set it up, I had something in there about larry, but I changed it to be more about the D in general when all kinds of gross shit spiked a while back--and someone noticed/sent me an ask? I never notice descriptions! So controversial! (For the “record” [which in itself makes me el oh el because there are people in the One D fandom, in the year of our lorde 2020, who genuinely give that much of a shit about what other people think in or out of the One D fandom that they will take the time to BJ Novak such things with extreme care], I’m with Alex: “culturally, I’m a larrie, but functionally, I don’t care”).

Content: One D and kitsch and various other random things! I’ve trimmed my One D dash back because not much is going on in general at the moment, plus I’m allergic to hand-wringing, so I tend to reblog things that appeal to my visual magpie eye and other interests; I also post about fic (One D fandom and elsewhere), I write recaps about random things when so inclined, and I generally love answering asks/doing these kinds of narse activities.

Background colour: honkin’ stonkin’ “MY EYES HURT” red

Text colour: i can barely see it yet "MY EYES HURT” contrast blue

Url meaning: At my first real job after college, I was assigned jlf23 as my ID because, believe it or not, there were 22 jlf’s before me! I’ve reused it a lot for social meeds, which is probably not the wisest move (after I started getting all kinds of shitty hate anons related to two wealthy white men I’ve never met, I ended up deleting my old jlf23 twitter account, among others, oh, me).

Blog title meaning: pure Boy George punnery related to above-mentioned laziness! I used to lurk on tumblr about five years ago, so when I took the plunge to create a blog, I didn’t put much thought into it, I was, like, hmmm, tumblr, hmmm, that makes me think of laundromats and Boy George’s “I’ll tumble for ya,” let’s just use that. Thinking about it now, maybe my header should be a laundromat, which actually matches a lot of my other aesthetics as well, hmmm. It’s also why I have the stupidest ao3 name in history because I blanked and just used something the Swedish Chef on the Muppet Show says as a nonsense word PLUS a random nonsense musical instrument from ancient times. I’ve really exposed myself here tonight, huh? The pisces mood on a lot of levels!

i'll tag... @alienfuckeronmain, @newleafover, @statementsue, @got2ghost, @setsailtomorrow, @vibey-lesbian, @kerasines, and literally anyone who wants to do it (I know I tend to tag the same folks, ver ver lazy that way, the callouts all over this post, I’ll see myself out)

#pisces are the true pillow princesses of the zodiac #and i own that #tag games #lazyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy #people always say dreamy #but that's being kind #we're the laziest fuckers you've ever seen

My thoughts

Harry and Louis spend most of the month together.

They went on a few dates

Hannah spent most of her time tweeting Louis

Louis never tweeted Hannah

Hannah had no clue when they actually started dating.

Harry was not a virgin.

Are you a houie? It must be weird to write a fic were half of it harry is married to other man.

hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii i’m only answering this and not blocking you because i had a beer AND some chocolate and those things combined make me feel a little charitable.

if you check my tag for this fic, you’ll find a bunch of posts where i talk about how weird it is to write harry married to someone else and how weird it is to write louis and harry as friends with no flirting or sexual tension etc.

if you follow me at all, you’ll know that after i wrote the second hand unwinds and heading for limbo earlier this year, i struggled a lot with writing in general. it was painful and i was pretty sad about it for a while.

what i wanted to do with this fic was explore what a divorce might feel like from the inside, and what it might be like to go through such a major life upheaval, and then fall in love again and find someone 84 million times more compatible. sometimes people get married when they’re really young or in a hurry or for any of the other billions of reasons that people end up in unhappy marriages. sometimes people are in love but there are so many other things going on that love isn’t enough to keep them together.

today i spent some time talking to a friend who’s a therapist (i won’t tag you - but you know who you are! ily!) because i wanted to know what divorce is like from that end and i want to make it realistic. i plan for this fic to be my big bang fic because i honestly think that it will take me until march to edit it because i know there will be a ton of scenes that i’ll have to add more feelings to specifically because it’s so hard to write them this way.

when i first started writing fic, it was on a whim. i was bored and wanted to know if i could do it. so i did. and after that, i wrote some fairly smutty fics. then last summer i wrote don’t want shelter and went into it with the goal to write something with more of an emotional plot line and more character exploration. and i’ve really enjoyed that sort of writing since.

this fic is very different. writing harry married to an original character is bizarre (as i’ve said) but it’s interesting finding their story and, as it unfolds, seeing where their marriage went wrong and why they don’t fix it. a post i’ve reblogged recently that i tagged as inspo for this fic is this one because it really applies, i think. do you walk away or do you choose to stay and work things out? what if one person wants to walk away? what happens if things just don’t work out?

i’m about…. jfc i just checked and i’m almost at 62k. anyway. they’re divorcing, they’re no longer together at this point in the fic, and now it’s really about harry on the inside. how does he cope? what does he do? how does he feel? what’s it like to be single after so long? etc etc. and further, how does he deal with falling in love again? he and louis were friends before, so how do things change between them? what happens? what are harry’s thoughts on falling in love after his divorce? is he hesitant? does he jump in with both feet?

i’ve said from the beginning that i don’t expect everyone to like this fic and that i know there are people who won’t read it simply because harry is married to someone else, and i’ve said that i’m fine with it and i understand. i’ve also said that i’m writing this fic for myself because it’s a story that i want to tell and that it doesn’t matter if no one reads it but nic @louandhazaf.

one of my best fandom friends (not Nic lol someone else!) doesn’t read fic where either harry or louis are with other people, even for a short while, so i don’t expect her to read it. (she’s still my friend though lol). and you definitely don’t have to read it either.

alllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll of that said. uhhhhh can you read my url? i’m a larrie lol and tbqh i don’t feel the need to say anything more about that. what i will say is this

if you can’t understand that fan fic is first and foremost FICTION, then idk what else to tell you.

anyway, have a nice night!

#marold harold fic #tbh i expect more anons like this after i post the fic #soooo whatever #anonymous #marold harold

Understanding Webpage Errors with

CrawlErrors - What Are Crawl Errors & How To Resolve them

This is the error in which a search engine tries to reach a page on your site but flop at it. First of all let’s elaborate the term crawling. Actually crawling is the process where a search engine tries to visit every page of your website through a bot. The search engine bot finds a link to your site and from there searches all your public pages. The bot scans pages and indexes of all content for use by Google, and also adds all links to these pages to the stack of pages that are yet to be crawled. Your main goal as the owner of the website is to ensure that the search engine bot can access all pages of the website. Otherwise, it will lead to crawl errors.

Get In Touch

The thing for your concern is that you have to be sure that every link on your website leads to an actual page. That might be via a 301 redirect, but the page at the very end of that link should always return a 200 OK server response. Google categorize crawl errors into two groups:

1) Site errors. You don’t want these, as they mean your whole website can’t be crawled/reached.

2) URL errors. You don’t want these either, but since they only relate to one specific URL per error, they are not difficult to maintain and fix.

Let’s get into the details on that.

Things to Keep In Mind

Site errors

Site errors are all the crawl errors that block the search engine bot from reaching your website. That can have many reasons, Most common reasons are mentioned below.

DNS Errors: This is mostly a temporary issue. This means that the search engine is not able to communicate with your server. It might be down, for a short period of time, meaning your website can’t be visited. But Google will come back to your website later and crawl your site anyway. If you notice this with crawl errors in the Google search console, this probably means that Google has tried several times and is still not able to reach your site.

Server errors: If your Search Console server shows errors, it means that the bot cannot reach your website. The request might have expired, which means that the search engine (f.i.) tried to visit your site, but it took time to load which indicates that the server served an error message. Server errors also occur when there are defects in your code that ceases a page from loading. Moreover it can also mean that your site has so many visitors that the server just couldn’t handle all the requests. A lot of these errors are returned as 5xx status codes, like the 500 and 503 status codes described here.

Robots failure: Before crawling (f.i.), Googlebot also tries to crawl your robots.txt file just to see if there are areas on your site that you have not indexed. If this bot cannot access the robots.txt file, Google will postpone scanning until it gets access to the robots.txt file. Therefore, always make sure that it is available.

This will explain you a bit about crawl errors related to your whole site. Now we will dig in the craw error that may happen for particular pages of your site. – URL errors

URL Errors

As you know that URL error happens when a search engine bot tries to crawl a specific page of your website. When we discuss URL errors, we first discuss crawl errors, such as (soft) 404 Not Found errors. You should often check for errors of this type (use the Google Search Console or Bing Tools for Webmasters) and fix them. If the page / theme of this page does not actually return to your site, then serve 410 pages. If you have similar content on another page, please redirect 301 instead. Make sure your site map and internal links are still relevant.

Mostly a lot of these URL errors happen due to the internal links, which means that usually these errors are due to the fault of the owner of the website. If you remove a page from your site at some point, adjust or remove any inbound links to it as well. These links are useless, If that link remains the same, a bot will find it and follow it, only to find a dead end (404 Not found error). On your website you have to do some adjustment now and then on your internal links!

Another most occured URL error is the one with the words ‘submitted URL’ in the title. These errors appear when Google detects inconsistency in behavior. On the one hand, you submitted the URL for the index, so you tell Google: “Yes, I want you to index this page.” On the other hand, Google gets information from something else saying: “No, do not index this page.” What might be possible is that your page is blocked by your robots.txt file. Or that the page is marked ‘noindex’ by a meta tag or HTTP header. If you don’t fix the inconsistency in the message, Google will not be able to index your URL.

Within these mostly occurred errors might be an occasional DNS error or server error for that specific URL. Check this URL later and see if the error persists. Be sure to use fetch as Google and mark the error as fixed in Google Search Console if that is your main monitoring tool in this.

Break it Down

What Are The Different Types Of SEO?

At Syndiket, we believe four types of SEO exist – and we have an acronym to represent those 4 types of SEO. The acronym is T.R.A.P.

“T” stands for Technical, “R” stands for Relevancy, “A” stands for Authority, and “P” stands for popularity. Search engine optimization has many smaller divisions within the 4 types, but all of them can be placed into one of these 4 buckets.

I’m Interested!

Technical SEO

Generally, technical SEO for local businesses carry the least importance for ranking. Technical SEO has a bare minimum that is required and this usually includes things like site speed, indexation issues, crawlability, and schema. Once the core technical parts are done, minimal upkeep is required.

Relevancy SEO

Relevancy is one of trivium elements of SEO. It has equal importance with popularity signals and authority signals. Relevancy signals are based on algorithmic learning principles. Bots crawl the internet every time a searcher has a search. Each search is given a relevancy score and the URLs that pop up for a query. The higher the relevancy score you attain, the greater your aggregated rating becomes in Google’s eyes. Digital marketing is a strange thing in 2020, and ranking a website requires the website to be relevant on many fronts.

Authority SEO

Google’s Co-creator, Larry Page, had a unique idea in 1998 which has led to the modern-day Google Empire. “Page Rank”, named after Larry Page himself, was the algorithm that established Google as a search engine giant. The algorithm ranked websites by authority.

Every page of a website has authority and the sum of all pages has another authority metric. The authority metric is largely determined by how many people link to them (backlinks). The aggregate score of all pages pointing to a domain creates the domain score, which is what Syndiket calls “Domain Rating”, per Ahrefs metrics. The more a site is referenced, the more authority it has. But, the real improvement to the algorithm came when Google began to classify authority weight.

If Tony Hawk endorsed Syndiket for skateboarding, it would carry a lot more authority than 5 random high school kids endorsing Syndiket. This differentiation in authority happened in 2012 with the Penguin update. Authority SEO is complicated but VERY important.

Popularity

Popularity signals are especially strong for GMB or local SEO, but popularity and engagement are used for all rankings. The goal of this signal is for Google to verify its own algorithm. You can check off all the boxes, but if your content is something real people hate, Google has ways to measure that. Syndiket has proprietary methods of controlling CTR (click-through rate) but we also infuse CRO methods into our work to make sure people actually like the content. Social shares and likes are also included in this bucket.

I’m Interested!

Very Specific URL Errors

There are some URL errors that apply only to some sites. Therefore, I want to list them separately:

Malware errors: If you encounter malware errors in webmaster tools, it means that Bing or Google detected malware at this URL. This may mean that software has been found that is used, for example, “to collect guarded information, or to disrupt their operation in general.” (Wikipedia). You must check this page and remove the malware.

Mobile-specific URL errors: This refers to crawl errors associated with a particular page that occur on modern smartphones. If you have a responsive website, it is unlikely to appear. Probably for the piece of flash content that you already wanted to replace. If you have a separate mobile subdomain, such as m.example.com, you may encounter a lot of errors. Talk about the erroneous redirection lines from your desktop to this mobile site. You can also block this mobile site using the line in your robots.txt.

Google News errors: There are some specific errors in Google News. The Google documentation has a list of these possible errors, so if your site is in Google News, you may find these crawl errors. They range from the lack of a headline to errors that indicate that your page does not have a news article. If this applies to your site, be sure to check it out for yourself.

Video Transcription

Howdy, Moz fans, and welcome to another edition of Whiteboard Friday. We are back with our final part in the One-Hour Guide to SEO, and this week talking about why links matter to search engines, how you can earn links, and things to consider when doing link building.

Why are links important to SEO?

So we’ve discussed sort of how search engines rank pages based on the value they provide to users. We’ve talked about how they consider keyword use and relevant topics and content on the page. But search engines also have this tool of being able to look at all of the links across the web and how they link to other pages, how they point between pages.

So it turns out that Google had this insight early on that what other people say about you is more important, at least to them, than what you say about yourself. So you may say, “I am the best resource on the web for learning about web marketing.” But it turns out Google is not going to believe you unless many other sources, that they also trust, say the same thing. Google’s big innovation, back in 1997 and 1998, when Sergey Brin and Larry Page came out with their search engine, Google, was PageRank, this idea that by looking at all the links that point to all the pages on the internet and then sort of doing this recursive process of seeing which are the most important and most linked to pages, they could give each page on the web a weight, an amount of PageRank.

Then those pages that had a lot of PageRank, because many people linked to them or many powerful people linked to them, would then pass more weight on when they linked. That understanding of the web is still in place today. It’s still a way that Google thinks about links. They’ve almost certainly moved on from the very simplistic PageRank formula that came out in the late ’90s, but that thinking underlies everything they’re doing.

How does Google measure the value of links?

Today, Google measures the value of links in many very sophisticated ways, which I’m not going to try and get into, and they’re not public about most of these anyway. But there is a lot of intelligence that we have about how they think about links, including things like more important, more authoritative, more well-linked-to pages are going to pass more weight when they link.

A.) More important, authoritative, well-linked-to pages pass more weight when they link

That’s true of both individual URLs, an individual page, and websites, a whole website. So for example, if a page on The New York Times links to yoursite.com, that is almost certainly going to be vastly more powerful and influential in moving your rankings or moving your ability to rank in the future than if randstinysite.info — which I haven’t yet registered, but I’ll get on that — links to yoursite.com.

This weighting, this understanding of there are powerful and important and authoritative websites, and then there are less powerful and important and authoritative websites, and it tends to be the case that more powerful ones tend to provide more ranking value is why so many SEOs and marketers use metrics like Moz’s domain authority or some of the metrics from Moz’s competitors out in the software space to try and intuit how powerful, how influential will this link be if this domain points to me.

B.) Diversity of domains, rate of link growth, and editorial nature of links ALL matter

So the different kinds of domains and the rate of link growth and the editorial nature of those links all matter. So, for example, if I get many new links from many new websites that have never linked to me before and they are editorially given, meaning I haven’t spammed to place them, I haven’t paid to place them, they were granted to me because of interesting things that I did or because those sites wanted to editorially endorse my work or my resources, and I do that over time in greater quantities and at a greater rate of acceleration than my competitors, I am likely to outrank them for the words and phrases related to those topics, assuming that all the other smart SEO things that we’ve talked about in this One-Hour Guide have also been done.

C.) HTML-readable links that don’t have rel=”nofollow” and contain relevant anchor text on indexable pages pass link benefit

HTML readable links, meaning as a simple text browser browses the web or a simple bot, like Googlebot, which can be much more complex as we talked about in the technical SEO thing, but not necessarily all the time, those HTML readable links that don’t have the rel=”nofollow” parameter, which is something that you can append to links to say I don’t editorially endorse this, and many, many websites do.

If you post a link to Twitter or to Facebook or to LinkedIn or to YouTube, they’re going to carry this rel=”nofollow,”saying I, YouTube, don’t editorially endorse this website that this random user has uploaded a video about. Okay. Well, it’s hard to get a link from YouTube. And it contains relevant anchor text on an indexable page, one that Google can actually browse and see, that is going to provide the maximum link benefit.

So a href=”https://yoursite.com” great tool for audience intelligence, that would be the ideal link for my new startup, for example, which is SparkToro, because we do audience intelligence and someone saying we’re a tool is perfect. This is a link that Google can read, and it provides this information about what we do.

It says great tool for audience intelligence. Awesome. That is powerful anchor text that will help us rank for those words and phrases. There are loads more. There are things like which pages linked to and which pages linked from. There are spam characteristics and trustworthiness of the sources. Alt attributes, when they’re used in image tags, serve as the anchor text for the link, if the image is a link.

There’s the relationship, the topical relationship of the linking page and linking site. There’s text surrounding the link, which I think some tools out there offer you information about. There’s location on the page. All of this stuff is used by Google and hundreds more factors to weight links. The important part for us, when we think about links, is generally speaking if you cover your bases here, it’s indexable, carries good anchor text, it’s from diverse domains, it’s at a good pace, it is editorially given in nature, and it’s from important, authoritative, and well linked to sites, you’re going to be golden 99% of the time.

Are links still important to Google?

Many folks I think ask wisely, “Are links still that important to Google? It seems like the search engine has grown in its understanding of the web and its capacities.” Well, there is some pretty solid evidence that links are still very powerful. I think the two most compelling to me are, one, the correlation of link metrics over time.

So like Google, Moz itself produces an index of the web. It is billions and billions of pages. I think it’s actually trillions of pages, trillions of links across hundreds of billions of pages. Moz produces metrics like number of linking root domains to any given domain on the web or any given page on the web.

Moz has a metric called Domain Authority or DA, which sort of tries to best replicate or best correlate to Google’s own rankings. So metrics like these, over time, have been shockingly stable. If it were the case someday that Google demoted the value of links in their ranking systems, basically said links are not worth that much, you would expect to see a rapid drop.

But from 2007 to 2019, we’ve never really seen that. It’s fluctuated. Mostly it fluctuates based on the size of the link index. So for many years Ahrefs and Majestic were bigger link indices than Moz. They had better link data, and their metrics were better correlated.

Now Moz, since 2018, is much bigger and has higher correlation than they do. So the various tools are sort of warring with each other, trying to get better and better for their customers. You can see those correlations with Google pretty high, pretty standard, especially for a system that supposedly contains hundreds, if not thousands of elements.

When you see a correlation of 0.25 or 0.3 with one number, linking root domains or page authority or something like that, that’s pretty surprising. The second one is that many SEOs will observe this, and I think this is why so many SEO firms and companies pitch their clients this way, which is the number of new, high quality, editorially given linking root domains, linking domains, so The New York Times linked to me, and now The Washington Post linked to me and now wired.com linked to me, these high-quality, different domains, that correlates very nicely with ranking positions.

So if you are ranking number 12 for a keyword phrase and suddenly that page generates many new links from high-quality sources, you can expect to see rapid movement up toward page one, position one, two, or three, and this is very frequent.

How do I get links?

Obviously, this is not alone, but very common. So I think the next reasonable question to ask is, “Okay, Rand, you’ve convinced me. Links are important. How do I get some?” Glad you asked. There are an infinite number of ways to earn new links, and I will not be able to represent them here. But professional SEOs and professional web marketers often use tactics that fall under a few buckets, and this is certainly not an exhaustive list, but can give you some starting points.

1. Content & outreach

The first one is content and outreach. Essentially, the marketer finds a resource that they could produce, that is relevant to their business, what they provide for customers, data that they have, interesting insights that they have, and they produce that resource knowing that there are people and publications out there that are likely to want to link to it once it exists.

Then they let those people and publications know. This is essentially how press and PR work. This is how a lot of content building and link outreach work. You produce the content itself, the resource, whatever it is, the tool, the dataset, the report, and then you message the people and publications who are likely to want to cover it or link to it or talk about it. That process is tried-and-true. It has worked very well for many, many marketers.

2. Link reclamation

Second is link reclamation. So this is essentially the process of saying, “Gosh, there are websites out there that used to link to me, that stopped linking.” The link broke. The link points to a 404, a page that no longer loads on my website.

The link was supposed to be a link, but they didn’t include the link. They said SparkToro, but they forgot to actually point to the SparkToro website. I should drop them a line. Maybe I’ll tweet at them, at the reporter who wrote about it and be like, “Hey, you forgot the link.” Those types of link reclamation processes can be very effective as well.

They’re often some of the easiest, lowest hanging fruit in the link building world.

3. Directories, resource pages, groups, events, etc.

Directories, resource pages, groups, events, things that you can join and participate in, both online or online and offline, so long as they have a website, often link to your site. The process is simply joining or submitting or sponsoring or what have you.

Most of the time, for example, when I get invited to speak at an event, they will take my biography, a short, three-sentence blurb, that includes a link to my website and what I do, and they will put it on their site. So pitching to speak at events is a way to get included in these groups. I started Moz with my mom, Gillian Muessig, and Moz has forever been a woman-owned business, and so there are women-owned business directories.

I don’t think we actually did this, but we could easily go, “Hey, you should include Moz as a woman-owned business.We should be part of your directory here in Seattle.” Great, that’s a group we could absolutely join and get links from.

4. Competitors’ links

So this is basically the practice you almost certainly will need to use tools to do this. There are some free ways to do it.

The simple, free way to do it is to say, “I have competitor 1 brand name and competitor 2 brand name.I’m going to search for the combination of those two in Google, and I’m going to look for places that have written about and linked to both of them and see if I can also replicate the tactics that got them coverage.” The slightly more sophisticated way is to go use a tool. Moz’s Link Explorer does this.

So do tools from people like Majestic and Ahrefs. I’m not sure if SEMrush does. But basically you can plug in, “Here’s me. Here’s my competitors. Tell me who links to them and does not link to me.” Moz’s tool calls this the Link Intersect function. But you don’t even need the link intersect function.

You just plug in a competitor’s domain and look at here are all the links that point to them, and then you start to replicate their tactics. There are hundreds more and many, many resources on Moz’s website and other great websites about SEO out there that talk about many of these tactics, and you can certainly invest in those. Or you could conceivably hire someone who knows what they’re doing to go do this for you. Links are still powerful.

Okay. Thank you so much. I want to say a huge amount of appreciation to Moz and to Tyler, who’s behind the camera — he’s waving right now, you can’t see it, but he looks adorable waving — and to everyone who has helped make this possible, including Cyrus Shepard and Britney Muller and many others.

Hopefully, this one-hour segment on SEO can help you upgrade your skills dramatically. Hopefully, you’ll send it to some other folks who might need to upgrade their understanding and their skills around the practice. And I’ll see you again next week for another edition of Whiteboard Friday. Take care.

But it turns out Google is not going to believe you unless many other sources, that they also trust, say the same thing. Google's big innovation, back in 1997 and 1998, when Sergey Brin and Larry Page came out with their search engine, Google, was PageRank, this idea that by looking at all the links that point to all the pages on the internet and then sort of doing this recursive process of seeing which are the most important and most linked to pages, they could give each page on the web a weight, an amount of PageRank.

Then those pages that had a lot of PageRank, because many people linked to them or many powerful people linked to them, would then pass more weight on when they linked. That understanding of the web is still in place today. It's still a way that Google thinks about links. They've almost certainly moved on from the very simplistic PageRank formula that came out in the late '90s, but that thinking underlies everything they're doing.

How does Google measure the value of links?

Today, Google measures the value of links in many very sophisticated ways, which I'm not going to try and get into, and they're not public about most of these anyway. But there is a lot of intelligence that we have about how they think about links, including things like more important, more authoritative, more well-linked-to pages are going to pass more weight when they link.

A.) More important, authoritative, well-linked-to pages pass more weight when they link

That's true of both individual URLs, an individual page, and websites, a whole website. So for example, if a page on The New York Times links to yoursite.com, that is almost certainly going to be vastly more powerful and influential in moving your rankings or moving your ability to rank in the future than if randstinysite.info — which I haven't yet registered, but I'll get on that — links to yoursite.com.

This weighting, this understanding of there are powerful and important and authoritative websites, and then there are less powerful and important and authoritative websites, and it tends to be the case that more powerful ones tend to provide more ranking value is why so many SEOs and marketers use metrics like Moz's domain authority or some of the metrics from Moz's competitors out in the software space to try and intuit how powerful, how influential will this link be if this domain points to me.

B.) Diversity of domains, rate of link growth, and editorial nature of links ALL matter

So the different kinds of domains and the rate of link growth and the editorial nature of those links all matter. So, for example, if I get many new links from many new websites that have never linked to me before and they are editorially given, meaning I haven't spammed to place them, I haven't paid to place them, they were granted to me because of interesting things that I did or because those sites wanted to editorially endorse my work or my resources, and I do that over time in greater quantities and at a greater rate of acceleration than my competitors, I am likely to outrank them for the words and phrases related to those topics, assuming that all the other smart SEO things that we've talked about in this One-Hour Guide have also been done.

C.) HTML-readable links that don't have rel="nofollow" and contain relevant anchor text on indexable pages pass link benefit

HTML readable links, meaning as a simple text browser browses the web or a simple bot, like Googlebot, which can be much more complex as we talked about in the technical SEO thing, but not necessarily all the time, those HTML readable links that don't have the rel="nofollow" parameter, which is something that you can append to links to say I don't editorially endorse this, and many, many websites do.

If you post a link to Twitter or to Facebook or to LinkedIn or to YouTube, they're going to carry this rel="nofollow,"saying I, YouTube, don't editorially endorse this website that this random user has uploaded a video about. Okay. Well, it's hard to get a link from YouTube. And it contains relevant anchor text on an indexable page, one that Google can actually browse and see, that is going to provide the maximum link benefit.

So a href="https://yoursite.com" great tool for audience intelligence, that would be the ideal link for my new startup, for example, which is SparkToro, because we do audience intelligence and someone saying we're a tool is perfect. This is a link that Google can read, and it provides this information about what we do.

It says great tool for audience intelligence. Awesome. That is powerful anchor text that will help us rank for those words and phrases. There are loads more. There are things like which pages linked to and which pages linked from. There are spam characteristics and trustworthiness of the sources. Alt attributes, when they're used in image tags, serve as the anchor text for the link, if the image is a link.

There's the relationship, the topical relationship of the linking page and linking site. There's text surrounding the link, which I think some tools out there offer you information about. There's location on the page. All of this stuff is used by Google and hundreds more factors to weight links. The important part for us, when we think about links, is generally speaking if you cover your bases here, it's indexable, carries good anchor text, it's from diverse domains, it's at a good pace, it is editorially given in nature, and it's from important, authoritative, and well linked to sites, you're going to be golden 99% of the time.

Are links still important to Google?

Many folks I think ask wisely, "Are links still that important to Google? It seems like the search engine has grown in its understanding of the web and its capacities." Well, there is some pretty solid evidence that links are still very powerful. I think the two most compelling to me are, one, the correlation of link metrics over time.

So like Google, Moz itself produces an index of the web. It is billions and billions of pages. I think it's actually trillions of pages, trillions of links across hundreds of billions of pages. Moz produces metrics like number of linking root domains to any given domain on the web or any given page on the web.

Moz has a metric called Domain Authority or DA, which sort of tries to best replicate or best correlate to Google's own rankings. So metrics like these, over time, have been shockingly stable. If it were the case someday that Google demoted the value of links in their ranking systems, basically said links are not worth that much, you would expect to see a rapid drop.

But from 2007 to 2019, we've never really seen that. It's fluctuated. Mostly it fluctuates based on the size of the link index. So for many years Ahrefs and Majestic were bigger link indices than Moz. They had better link data, and their metrics were better correlated.

When you see a correlation of 0.25 or 0.3 with one number, linking root domains or page authority or something like that, that's pretty surprising. The second one is that many SEOs will observe this, and I think this is why so many SEO firms and companies pitch their clients this way, which is the number of new, high quality, editorially given linking root domains, linking domains, so The New York Times linked to me, and now The Washington Post linked to me and now wired.com linked to me, these high-quality, different domains, that correlates very nicely with ranking positions.

How do I get links?

Obviously, this is not alone, but very common. So I think the next reasonable question to ask is, "Okay, Rand, you've convinced me. Links are important. How do I get some?" Glad you asked. There are an infinite number of ways to earn new links, and I will not be able to represent them here. But professional SEOs and professional web marketers often use tactics that fall under a few buckets, and this is certainly not an exhaustive list, but can give you some starting points.

1. Content & outreach

2. Link reclamation

Second is link reclamation. So this is essentially the process of saying, "Gosh, there are websites out there that used to link to me, that stopped linking." The link broke. The link points to a 404, a page that no longer loads on my website.

The link was supposed to be a link, but they didn't include the link. They said SparkToro, but they forgot to actually point to the SparkToro website. I should drop them a line. Maybe I'll tweet at them, at the reporter who wrote about it and be like, "Hey, you forgot the link." Those types of link reclamation processes can be very effective as well.

They're often some of the easiest, lowest hanging fruit in the link building world.

3. Directories, resource pages, groups, events, etc.

I don't think we actually did this, but we could easily go, "Hey, you should include Moz as a woman-owned business.We should be part of your directory here in Seattle." Great, that's a group we could absolutely join and get links from.

4. Competitors' links

So this is basically the practice you almost certainly will need to use tools to do this. There are some free ways to do it.

The simple, free way to do it is to say, "I have competitor 1 brand name and competitor 2 brand name.I'm going to search for the combination of those two in Google, and I'm going to look for places that have written about and linked to both of them and see if I can also replicate the tactics that got them coverage." The slightly more sophisticated way is to go use a tool. Moz's Link Explorer does this.

So do tools from people like Majestic and Ahrefs. I'm not sure if SEMrush does. But basically you can plug in, "Here's me. Here's my competitors. Tell me who links to them and does not link to me." Moz's tool calls this the Link Intersect function. But you don't even need the link intersect function.

You just plug in a competitor's domain and look at here are all the links that point to them, and then you start to replicate their tactics. There are hundreds more and many, many resources on Moz's website and other great websites about SEO out there that talk about many of these tactics, and you can certainly invest in those. Or you could conceivably hire someone who knows what they're doing to go do this for you. Links are still powerful.

Okay. Thank you so much. I want to say a huge amount of appreciation to Moz and to Tyler, who's behind the camera — he's waving right now, you can't see it, but he looks adorable waving — and to everyone who has helped make this possible, including Cyrus Shepard and Britney Muller and many others.

Hopefully, this one-hour segment on SEO can help you upgrade your skills dramatically. Hopefully, you'll send it to some other folks who might need to upgrade their understanding and their skills around the practice. And I'll see you again next week for another edition of Whiteboard Friday. Take care.
