[SEMrush] Toxic Backlinks ruining your SEO and how to remove them

July 16, 2020April 6, 2019 by Enstine Muki

One fatal SEO (Search engine optimization) mistake we make is building backlinks and moving forward without looking back to clean up.

Not all the links pointing to your blog will add to your search ranking. Some are toxic and that’s what we want to deal with in this post.

But what is a toxic or dangerous backlinks ?

At the moment of writing, there is no universal definition of a toxic backlink. However, this generally refers to links from private blog networks, websites that violate Google’s guidelines, or sites with major security flaws.

Toxic inbound links are the unnatural links that can negatively impact the SERP rankings of your website.

Did You Learn Networking from Unskilled Networkers?

July 16, 2020April 2, 2019 by Ryan Biddulph

I wrote an entire eBook on how to network the right way as a blogger.

See me holding the paperback version below?

Every day, my social media and email mirror back poor networking tactics being taught to new or struggling bloggers. Bloggers may teach how certain networking techniques *work* but in the long run, silly tactics damage your reputation and lead to long term failure.

I see 5-10 networking mistakes or more in my email inbox daily. Obviously, unskilled networkers are teaching new, impressionable bloggers or struggling, desperate bloggers the wrong way to network.

How to attract more comments on your blog – Not what you think!

April 27, 2020April 1, 2019 by Enstine Muki

When I got into blogging in August of 2012, commenting was (and is still) one of my favorite blogging activities. I have been able to connect with many exciting (I mean very exciting) folks in the industry.

If you are just new to blogging, trust me commenting on blogs in your niche will quickly drive your business forward.

You don’t just comment for the sake of it. Comment for relationships. Don’t even comment for backlinks. Add value in your comments and watch what happens.

From the point of view of blog owners, I was thinking about things to do to say Thank You to my comment authors.

[ Zest.is ] How to drive free traffic with Zest Content Curation tool

March 27, 2019 by Enstine Muki

I recently came across a free traffic and content sharing tool and it’s beginning to get me addicted.

We have many of these curation platforms out there but what makes zest.is stand out is the team behind it.

I have said a couple of time that the strength of a platform isn’t in its coding. It lies almost completely on the team that runs it and Zest may soon take over leadership in the industry.

Many content gathering tools have disappointed curators and consumers. They focus on volumes and let anything in. But Zest is all about quality that goes through manual approval.
