Ok the first thing I always check is server headers, a common mistake is 302ing the home page to an internal page so here is the screen shot of what a server header should look like :

server header

the next thing is Links and ratio of inbound to outbound links something like :

link ratio

I can see that I have too many internal links, I still like the 100 links on a page rule, so that means I need to do some culling, most probably in my NAV .. any way externals links is next on my list. What is the web master allowing to be followed is normally a good indication if a site is selling links, if a high % of outbounds are a Nofollow and a few and clean links, IMO the clean links are either owned by the web master or are purchased .. Blog’s can be a little different you can see mine here :

extenal NO-Follow links

that’s my Comments with NoFollow, and my posts Have clean links, I can also see MY V10 tracking script, My Flickr account and my Firewall Script here :
external follow links

I can also see that I have a few Sphinn links due to the fact that I pull in their RSS, but again I’m happy that Danny and his Mods will keep that feed clean but it’s a good reminder that I’m linking externally !!

btw The Tool is Here

    Am I the only one who avoids using free tools like this, due to the fact that everything it’s used for can be TRACKED in great detail ?

    I bet you’ll be gathering some interesting stats with this ;-)

    actually I storing no data at all on it, Zippy used to but it gets to big to manage and the data that a user put into the KD tool is never going to yield any anything concrete.

    what I would do ;) is scape the SE’s on keyword level and then compile averages, etc etc … that’s want zippy did..

    we keep the data while you browser is open that’s it

    Cool, I have added the tool Dave to my blog post.

    One more question, do you ever give interviews anymore, and if you ever thought of doing one would you consider speaking with myself?

    Right now off to watch Donny try and beat Southend.

    Nice! ..and usefull if you could handle anything else but the english language.

    Try punching some scandinavian keywords in – double the fun and include a special char like æ or å, lol.

    In know you got some danish keyword lists and probably some stop words too, so get crackin’ mate ;)
