Published: June 7, 2010 Dixon Jones is the Marketing Director of Majestic12 LTD, owners of a web based technology used by the world's leading SEOs to analyze how web pages on the Internet connect between domains. It is the largest database of it's kind that can be analyzed publicly in this way, with well over a trillion back links indexed. Dixon Jones is also a founding director of an Internet Marketing company and has a decade of experience marketing online, primarily above the line, building Receptional up from a start-up in my front room to a reasonable size. From near the start I did this with David to build a team of 15 Internet Marketing Consultants last time I counted and little sign of a slow down. The office has now become so tight that the landlord has agreed to build a considerable extension that would more than double our floor space. I don't think he wants us to leave. Other of Dixon Jones accolades (or chains, depending on your point of view) in the world of Internet Marketing include being a moderator on Webmasterworld which most webmasters have heard of. If you haven't, I guess you are not a webmaster. To be fair, nor am I these days. I am an Internet marketer - but I don't know how an Internet marketer can really understand the nuances of the Internet Marketing world without at least some understanding of web-servers and CMS systems. Interview Transcript Eric Enge: One of the landmark deals of the industry in 2009 and 2010 was the search agreement between Microsoft/ Bing and Yahoo . I am sure one of the things that they consider to be a minor side effect was the announcement that this would result in Yahoo Site Explorer becoming obsolete. That leaves us with a situation where the SEO industry has lost its ability to analyze link structures and get access to link data, as links continue to play a huge role in rankings. That means that other tools are required. I would say that Linkscape and Majestic-SEO are the two major contenders to benefit from everything has happened. Can you tell us anything regarding how you go about collecting your data? Dixon Jones: Majestic-SEO was born out of an attempt to build a distributed search engine. By distributed I mean that instead of getting a massive data center the size of Google's to try and crawl everything on the web, what we did about four years ago to get people to contribute their unused CPU cycles to our crawling efforts. We have more than 1,000 now, that have downloaded a crawler on their PC. When they get spare bandwidth, the crawler is then crawling the web from their PCs and servers. We have been able to crawl incredibly quickly, but it took a couple of years to get the crawl right and optimized. As we built it up, we started to crawl the web from hundreds of websites and machines every single day. We didn't try and collect all of the data about the Internet, because we realized early on just how much memory that would require. What we started d ...

Search engine updates come and go but links remain strong. And it looks like link building is here to stay as the single most powerful SEO tactics. The question is where do you get relevant links that will drive your site up in the search results? One of the most effective but often overlooked aspects of link building is competitive intelligence. The concept is simple. Find out where your rivals get their links, take over their link sources and blow the big guys out the water. Right now I'm gonna tell you a little secret of how to find links to a website and take advantage of the hidden link sources of your competish. And you're going to learn how to bypass the search engine's limit of 1,000 links per site and learn more about the linking profile of any website. Step 1: The easiest way to find links to a website is to go to Yahoo! and run a search for "link:domain . com" (without quotes and spaces).  The "link:" operator is used to get a list of links pointing to a site. Once you hit search you'll be automatically taken to Yahoo! site explorer where you'll get a list of links. Step 2: In the 'Show links dropdown' choose 'except from this domain' to exclude all the internal links that are of no much use to you unless you're interested in the navigational structure of your competitor. Step 3: You can just go through the links in your browser or you can export them by pressing 'Export first 1,000 results to TSV' link in the upper right-hand corner and explore them later. Step 4: Now that you've got a list of links you need to weed out the poor quality ones and select the best link sources that you can use for your own website. I bet you have 2 questions: Why Yahoo! and not, say Google? And why only 1,000 links? - Well Yahoo! is the best source when it comes to finding links. Google knows about as many links as Yahoo! but for some reason it only shows a random sample that's often very outdated. Why 1,000 links? - I'm not really sure but all search engine have that limit, maybe it's their thing. Anyway here's a trick that gets you past it: Step 5: Alongside with the link:domainname operator, search for links to internal pages searching for "link:domainname. com/pagename" (without quotes and spaces)This way you'll get a list of links pointing to a particular page that you can add to the main list you have. Step 6: If you see that there're a lot of links coming from one website add the following modifier to your query: "- site:sitename. com" (no quotes, no spaces) to exclude the links from this domain. The links from this site will be replaced by new links in your 1,000 links so you get more data. Step 7: Remove the dulicates and you have your 1,000+ links list. Sounds like a lot of work? Yeah, I know. All right, I'm going to share the tool I use to have all these steps done for me. It's called SEO SpyGlass and it's the only tool that can find more than 1k links from the search engines. It does the above steps and more getting you ...

Published: June 9, 2010 Rand Fishkin is the CEO & Co-Founder of SEOmoz , a leader in the field of search engine optimization tools, resources & community. In 2009, he co-authored the Art of SEO from O'Reilly Media and was named among the 30 Best Young Tech Entrepreneurs Under 30 by BusinessWeek. Rand has been written about it in The Seattle Times , Newsweek and the NY Times among others and keynoted conferences on search around the world. He's particularly passionate about the SEOmoz blog, read by tens of thousands of search professionals each day. In his miniscule spare time, Rand enjoys the company of his amazing wife, Geraldine . Ben Hendrickson graduated from the Computer Science Department at the University of Washington, he then rather enjoyed being a developer at Microsoft, although not quite as much as his current position serving the SEOmoz corporation. Nick Gerner leads SEOmoz API development and worked on solutions for historical Linkscape data tracking prior to leaving SEOmoz about 1 month ago. Interview Transcript Eric Enge: Can you provide an overview of what Linkscape is, for the readers who aren't familiar with you all and what you have been developing? Rand Fishkin: Linkscape is an index of the World Wide Web, built by crawling tens of billions of pages and building metrics from that data. The information Linkscape provides is something webmasters have cared about and wanted to see but search engines have been reluctant to expose. Linkscape is a way to understand how links impact a website and how they impact the rankings given by search engines. Our aim is to expose the data in two formats. One for advanced users to perform some of the complicated analyses they have longed to do but couldn't, and a second to provide simple recommendations and advice to webmasters who don't necessarily need to learn the ins and outs of how metrics are calculated. Ultimately Linkscape will provide actionable recommendations that go beyond raw data to explain a site's ranking and the rankings of competitors. It routes the source of the links and shows a user who is linking to a competitor, but could link to them. Our tools also expose which links are more useful and which ones are less so. Eric Enge: One interesting aspect of your tools is that in addition to collecting a large dataset of pages and links across the web, you do your own calculations to approximate trust value and rank value as in mozRank or mozTrust. Can you talk a little bit about that? Rand Fishkin: For those who are interested in the technical details and methodologies, the patent applications are now available . For the less technical webmaster, mozRank is a way to think about raw popularity in terms of how many links point to a page and how important those links are and consequently how important that page is. It leverages the classic PageRank concept. MozTrust similarly asks the same question, but with a trust base bias. Inst ...
