Question about backlink duplication... ?

2 replies
Ok, I understand how backlinks work in general and even know how to use them in most cases. However something occurred to me when I was considering outsourcing some backlinking.

Say 2 different people are building backlinks using social bookmarking and both people have accounts on the same site but are totally uninvolved. If they both submitted the same anchor text linking to the same site would they count as 1 or 2 different backlinks?

    Google may count this as only one link.

    Yahoo may count it as two.

    Would be best maybe to have each person working on your link building to each have there own set of keywords to link to.

    That way you don't have to worry yourself about this issue off double links for the same sites. I don't think it would matter much if there was double links but why waste time when you can point links to different URL's and different keyword's.

    Delegating your work is key...to bigger gains.

    Ideally, you want links from everywhere possible.

    Two people with different accounts on Twitter have different audiences, and that is fine and natural.

    Google likes natural linking patterns, so you are good.

    Most social media won't count as a actual link, but they will give credit for them, if the profile linking has a good rating within Google's algorithms.
