How do you take down a link

[Nightwing]

Salut from Sunny wetherby UK

Having just watched a whiteboard fri clip all about the "Penguin Update" i want to know how to take down a link.

I feel a site ive been working on has been pecked by the penguin. I did build inbound links on a specific commercial term and shiver me timbers is dropped oof the SERPS from top 5 to ziltch, yiles!!

So my questiuon is please:
if you find an inbound link using a target term how do you kill it?

Thanks in advance :_)

I'm assuming you are referring to link that you did via some networks....  where it is a little harder to remove the links since there is no direct connection between you and the link host?

Assuming that to be the case - (since otherwise the course of action would be pretty straight forward) - then I would do as I stated here.

Sorry to post a link to a previous one of my answers - but it was quite a long one.

Did you get the notice regarding unnatural links in GWT ?

Let me know if I can help further.
