You could 301 redirect the old backlinked URL to a new URL and then recycle your content to a brand new URL that's not redirected.

If you're not using it now, you should pick up Firefox and the "Firebug" addon. If you're new, you will learn a lot about how things are setup on your site. There are plenty of tips through Google on these subjects. You can also right click your page, and view source. See this image:

It will certainly depend on your situation as I mentioned above. Don't forget, the backlinks don't go away (unless the backlink webmaster removes it) from just changing the URL. The backlinks are still pointed to your site but will end up at your 404 page. You have to think of this as...

It's important to note that everyone's results will vary. After you create a new URL, you're surviving off the content on that page, internal link juice to that page and of course how well you've optimized it. On top of your onsite stuff, it depends on how competitive your niche is and how...

I've tried SerpFox, Micro, Serpbuddy etc. The last one I tried is SerpBook. It's not as "pretty" as some of the others and there are a few quirks here and there but the customer service is amazing. We've sent them emails requesting various features and every single one of the features was...

I did this for one of my sites. I changed all of the URLs that had poorly diversified back links. Since most of them had completely disappeared off of G, I couldn't see keeping them anyway. At first we did the 301'n to internal pages and that worked for a bit but they eventually dropped as...

Are you wanting to offer a product to them? Are you looking for a drop shipper? eCommerce is sort of vague.

Originally you had given up on the site. Most of the time that's what happens. People get impatient and don't stick with an idea. Think about how well that site would be doing now if you had worked on it back in 2010. Better late than never!

Everything stated in partymarty's quote is excellent advice.

Build the content, spread your back link diversity around.

I've had success placing the ads up immediately. I've read a lot of threads where people suggest you wait a while before monetizing. To each their own and I'm sure your results will vary.

Diversity in strategies is just as important as diversity in black hat. Having more than one site allows you to try different things. You don't even have to work on different niches, dominating the first page with multiple stores can happen and does happen more than you think. Setting a time...

Well if some of them end up being quality links then it can only help you. Google will send you credit where credit is due. I would just make sure you diversify your anchor text etc during your experiment.

If you were penalized for it before and don't change your methods the following will occur: You will see a SERP boost, you will get excited and then Penguin 1.2 will come through and you will end up back where you started. If you change your methods to improve them beyond what got you...

I agree, he's confusing at points but his theory shouldn't be discredited yet. One other thing to note on that topic is he states you can have it in 1 area but not all. So, it would seem wise to use it in your title tag and not necessarily in your meta description. I definitely wouldn't use...

Manny, you're one of the few that showed positive signals after Penguin 1.1. Are the ranks still holding? I know from talking to you in PMs that you put a lot of focus in "deoptimizing" your pages and of course spreading diversity.

Meta keywords has been dead for a long time. Bing and Yahoo may still put weight in it but Google stopped putting emphasis on it. People used to abuse that. Meta Description is a snapshot of what the page is about but your title tag is the basis of the page. Image tags will almost always have...

I tend to follow what you and another member "Lancis" have to say in various threads. I have respect for both of you. I'm not saying Negative SEO isn't possible but rather it has to be targeted towards what will work against the competitors on-site SEO. The video suggests that backlink sites...

This is an excellent video. I've seen every type of hypothesis on these boards, other sources etc and this video pretty much wraps up everything into one segment. It explains why negative seo is more complicated than just tossing bad links at a site. Math problems always have to work both...
