Hi,
Though I am not a newbie, but yes still learning! I have just launched an Amazon affiliate based site and have started filling it with informative above 2000 words articles. Till now there have been around 20 such articles and I am already in process of feeding more.
But just wanted to know as how to gain traction with this start. It's a product review site and I think I should make some foundation links to Homepage so that it can gain some trust and authority of Google?
What you guys do whenever you launch a new site? What type of links are best to start with? (I am here trying to bring Organic traffic to the site, so please don't put me in other shoe)

    It is important to build a wide variety of backlinks to your site. To start with, I suggest building links on pages with high DA (domain authority). The backlinks should be dofollow and contextual (surrounded by text related to your keywords/niche).

    Place BL to sites which products you are going to review and ask owner for the same.
    I'm sure they would do that gladly after all if you are going to place favorable reviews,
    they would like their visitors to point to reviews prizing them and products.

    Google only gives SEO weight to a website's homepage when the in-bound link is a relevant dofollow link from another website's hompage. Period!

    Google will in fact give SEO weight to a website's inner pages when the in-bound link is a relavent dofollow link from another website's inner page. Period!

    Google announced YMYL- EAT to be an important part of their algorithms. Essentially, they are using algorithms that are getting tough on product review sites.

      Dofollow link??? What's that????

      I don't see G. has been making any references to rel="dofollow"? It's talking about
      rel="nofollow" and when it should be used but "dofollow" or "do follow" or "do-follow"...
      For regular links that you expect Google to follow without any qualifications, you don't need to add a rel attribute.

      Care to point to even one rel="dofollow" tag?

        Happy to help. "dofollow" is not a tag and I never said it was. An example of a dofollow link is:
        http://www. some domain .com

          Then why even mention something that is not a tag, doesn't exist as a value,
          not a part of HTML <code> as it defined by w3schools com, thus confusing
          forum's noobs who are most definitely looking to learn from you something useful.

              thus means NOTHING or gibberish part of lexicon used by HTML illiterate "SEO Pros"

              BTW community I use to know would never employ use of unnecessary terms.

            By default, the SEO community commonly refers to all links as dofollow links unless they are modified <..tag..> to be nofollow links manually or are automatically changed by a website setting.

            The practice ensures the quality of clarity when communicated for both the professional and the beginner or "noob" as you refer to "beginner."

    As usual, this is terrible advice. DA has absolutely nothing to do with the value of a link.

    The only people who will tell you otherwise are noobs and low quality link sellers.

    W3Schools is about Online Web Tutorials, i.e. not about SEO, and not about Profit, i.e. no skin in the game

    Google is about web search, profit and SEO. It is vital that websites are organized in terms of user search, Google Profit and Google SEO, i.e. skin in the game.


    The reason the SEO community at large makes a distinction between nofollow and dofollow is because beginners were confused about links.

    Enter Google's new three rel attribute values that you link to. That is not about W3Schools of which I do not see W3Schools supporting. It is all about how Google wants webmasters to organize not in terms of user search rather in terms of increasing Google Profit and Google SEO.

    In other words Google by imposing the rel attribute values has started a new tactic for Google to regulate how the SEO community will be forced to adhere to Google qualify your outbound links.

    With that said, Google will not be able to impose a requlation on the SEO community to make a distinction between nofollow and dofollow simply because it already exists in the SEO community.

    Are you still having trouble understanding?
