Backlink link text
- SEO |
Got a new client for whom I'm building a new site and doing some SEO for too along the way. They're in a competitive niche and are nowhere to be found within search engine results for their preferred keyword.
Basically at the start of a long campaign to improve things for them.
The vast majority of their current backlinks are via a forum signature on a forum related to their niche. Well over 1000.
The only problem is that the link text used was something along the lines of "visit my website". Not particularly useful.
In theory I could ask them to change the sig link text to include either their company name or their keywords.
But I'm a little worried that Google may think they're buying links if over 1000 keyword-rich links suddenly appear....
Am I better off leaving it as it is or risk it and change the link text?
Thanks in advance.
