How does Apture impact SEO?
Apture links act like ordinary links. If you are using Apture in your editing environment the links are stored on your servers or baked into the HTML of your site. Apture can currently be used within the editing environments of many publishing platforms and most major blog platforms such as TypePad, WordPress.org, MoveableType, Blogger, and many others. Visit our download page to see if Apture can be used in the editing environment of your platform. If you are using a publishing platform without editing environment support you can still use Apture by adding links to the live page, however, these live page links are not recognized by search engines.
I have been using apture on at least one of my sites (embed), and then on the other I use it as a simple inline linking tool. Both work great. And like the previous answer, I see no impact on SEO one way or the other. Ofcourse, each time you use apture to embed something on your side, there will be link back to apture, and if you think that is too selfish of apture (and they don’t deserve on, even though the service is free) then you may not want to use it all. The other major competition is insights. And it is pretty much the same. As far as SEO is concerned – no impact compared to manual embed, inserts, links or using another tool. Pics etc can be SEOd now since the updated version from a few months ago. You can look at my site Flight Training to see an example of how it works for me.
