You know what, I will

It has been widely discussed that when there are multiple links from one page to the same target URL, only the first link is counted and thus only the anchor text of the first link counts.

But what happens when there are multiple links from the same page to different pages on the same site?

Eg: If there are three links on a page, one to example.com/page1.html, one to example.com/page2.html, one to example.com/page3.html

Do all links and anchor texts count? And if so are they counted equally, or is more weight given to earlier links?

I've been wondering this for a while!

[AnthonyMSEO]

I dont think it quite works like that. I know that using the same anchor text more than once is pointless on any page as Google will look at the first one sort of. This is how i believe it works.

Look at each level as an extra score on each vote. It would look like this

Domain - This value or extra score is given once on one link but not given to any other links after that point from this domain to that same site.

Domain Pages - A separate bonus for each page. One link on any inividual page is valued and given the extra score value.

Domain deep pages linked to -A separate bonus for each page. One link to any inividual page is valued and given the extra score value.

Anchor - 1 exact anchor keyword per page to another page on a domain gets the extra score value for that anchor to that domain.

This is a really complicated algo and i will have to send you a doc with it on as im sure i have confused myself doing that.

Hi Eagleyeseg!

Perhaps is very difficult to answer, but what strategy for SEO is the best when your market is relative small and you don`t have to much local competitors? My competitors are from Spain, with sites .es, mine is from the target country, but they have much better positions on Google. I understand that one of the most important think for SEO is good link building, but should I link my site on sites from my country even they are not gambling related or should I look for another similar countries sites, related to casinos?? What other strategy should I take?

always keep links relevant. If you are targeting the chile market then you want to make sure you are hosted in chile and have the correct fix at the end, ie .co.uk, .es, whatever you have. Then build links from firstly casino/gambling/betting/poker sites from chile, then expand to all other countries. just remember to keep link relevant and natural looking

Thanks for your answer!

The thing is that there are only a few gambling related sites in my country, they are not visited and also they don´t want to do link-building thinking that as we are competitors I´m gonna steal players from them...
That´s why I´m asking if is ok to do link building with non gambling sites, like soccer sites, or is better to make linkbuilding with other countries sites...

Sounds to me like you've spotted a nice gap the market? Why not build up your own network of .cl, Chilean hosted, gambling sites?

That´s a very good idea... I´ll study the options...

Regional linking is okay to a degree but relevant sites in the target language is really what you need. As a rule of thumb i would say topical relevance is a must for 90% of your links.

What is your website URL?

So, should I look into sites from SouthAmerica or Spain?

[AnthonyMSEO]

I see, well most people in Chile speak spanish yes?

The problem is targeting Chile. Your domain name is casinos online which is english. Your domain name would have been better as "casinos en linea" if we were wanting to target "Chile" "Spanish" thats what Google Translate suggests.

There again this is not a massive issue as the majority of your site is in spanish. Optimise your headers. E.g H1,H2 etc for you keywords in spanish. Check your keyword density which is basically repeats of your keyword to paragraph ratio.

To answer the first question target and attain links from chile relevant to casino. if this is too difficult two immediate options come to mind.

1. Social media, Spanish socialbookmark sites, spanish article sites etc.

2. Attain links from spanish language/hosted if possible casino sites.

Hello eagleyeseo,

Thanks for being you and being here. And good luck answering this one!

I have a situation that I am totally dazed and confused about. I started a thread here in the seo section called "Videos in relation to serps". But no one is responding to my call for an explanation. So if I may present you with the question? I am definitely not an expert on SERPS.

I recently did a whole new section on my site for USA casinos for Check out Mac-online-slots.com When I looked at the SERPS a few days after I noticed that, One review was showing up where it did not belong. If you can do a search on any one of these key words:

<style>@font-face { font-family: "Times"; }p.MsoNormal, li.MsoNormal, div.MsoNormal { margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: "Times New Roman"; }p { margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: "Times New Roman"; }div.Section1 { page: Section1; }</style>
Maria casino Reviews
http://www.google.co.cr/search?q=mar...ient=firefox-a

You will notice that a Video review for Slotland Casino shows instead of the Maria review. And look at the second page on the google search above. There are other new Mac USA Pages.

But that is not the only thing I noticed... I did two reviews for every casino. One was a 4000 word text review and one was a 200 word video review. In ALL the SERPS for all 7 casinos the video review shows up and many times the text post is not even on the map. But this is a different topic all together. I would imagine GOOgle likes vids the way I presented them on the page. The first question really stumps me.

Do you need a Live Casino List? Look no further.

[AnthonyMSEO]

Yes i have heard this well optimised Videos ie "alt tags" and "Titles" especially "H1s". A good idea is to always include the word video in your titles and video content. Give Google plenty of options to index you.

Thanks for the reply, Big guy!

Yes I am going to do some social book marking with vids. as well. There are a few SEO programs out there that are Bookmarkng Demon type programs but for vids.

I saw something after I wrote the above post . I went back to a SLOTLAND vid post that was showing on first page on the MARIS REVIEW serp. It was showing the word maria review in the description below (before it was not) What I noticed was that the MARIA REVIEW words were from the link I had in the header. The header is on every page of cosrse. Perhaps it was some glitch in Google that was picking up maria in the header and associating it with the post. (did I explain myself well?)
Another vid post of Payersonly was showing just below the SLOTLAND vid post. on the same search and SERP for MARIA CASINO REVIEW.

It is all a bit confusing but there is gold in that trip somewhere, most likely.
In an case the videos showing well is what i can walk away with right now. Super well architecture onsite, with vids is a GOOD THING. I dont realy know if viewers are into the vids but at least i will have viewers.

number 2 option is wrong, relevence is everything in a link, thats what matter. the way you put it he would get benefit from a link on a skoda car website as long as the site is in Spanish, the benefit would be almost none exsistant
