CEMPER Juice™ Indicator
The link juice tool is part of our internal SEO toolkit and link building backend that we use 100s of times everyday to find out if we want a link on a page – i.e. evaluate if a page is worth to be target for link acquisition.
Possible Results we return are
| JUICE | If the result of the link juice tool says “JUICE” then we found this page to be juicy, because it ranks #1 for a unique phrase on the page. This is a much more reliable check than the Google cache dates.”Juice” does come back as JUICE/<strength> – the higher the better! (25 is max) |
| JUICE- | If the result of the link juice tool says “JUICE-” then this page was found in the unfiltered results with snippet size x (number behind /). |
| JUICED | This is a special case where we found the page to be juicy, but it’s been replicated on the same domain – typically this happens with blogs or forums that return the same content under different URLs (i.e. archive pages). |
| JUICED- | When the result shows JUICED- then the domain was found in the unfiltered results. |
| DEAD | A page that is DEAD cannot be found in Google, so don’t bother getting a link there! |
| DEAD MEAT | A page is DEAD MEAT if it’s either not reachable or not an HTML page. (an image, a PDF, etc.) Obviously, you can’t get a link there. |
| DUPE | Dupe means, as name indicates, that this page is duplicate content – typically a syndicated article in a directory/blog syndicator – OR somebody stole the website’s content.“Dupe” comes back as Dupe/ where the number lists the number of unique different domains that we found to have that content… the higher the worse! |
| NSN | This stands for No Snippet found, which means the page you’re looking at is probably a poor link page without substantial content. Again please don’t bother getting a link there! |
Onpage-Linking Analysis Package
| MetaRobots | Analyzes a site’s robots-meta-tag and tells you, if a page uses one or a combination of the values “index”, “noindex”, “follow”, “nofollow”, “archive” or “noarchive”. |
| IntL | Total number of internal links (links to the same domain) on a given page (both FOLLOW as well as NOFOLLOW-links). |
| ExtL | Total number of external links on a given page (both FOLLOW as well as NOFOLLOW-links). |
| IntLNF | Total number of internal links (links to the same domain) on a given page with rel=”nofollow”. |
| ExtLNF | Total number of external links on a given page with rel=”nofollow”. |
Social Votes
| FB!Votes | The number of times a URL has been shared or liked on Facebook and websites with Facebook-buttons. (Therefore a combination of the metrics FB!Likes and FB!Shares.) The difference between liking and sharing a page is that when you like a page, a hidden Facebook Page is created that allows the webmaster to send status updates to their “followers” news feeds, whereas liking means that only a link to a page is created on a user’s Facebook Profile. |
| FB!Likes | The number of times a URL has been shared on Facebook and websites with Facebook-buttons. (The difference to FB!Shares is explained in the FB!Votes explanation.) |
| FB!Shares | The number of times a URL has been shared on Facebook and websites with Facebook-buttons. (The difference to FB!Likes is explained in the FB!Votes explanation.) |
| RTs | The number of Tweets and Retweets including a link to a given URL. |
| Diggs | The number of Diggs for a given URL from all stories for that URL. |
| The number of up votes minus the number of down votes for a URL on reddit.com. | |
| StumbleUpon | The number of views for a given URL on StumbleUpon. |
Content Quality
| G!ReadingLevel | Rates the reading level of a text according to Google. Possible values are “n/a” (not yet rated by Google), “Basic”, “Intermediate” and “Advanced”. |
