What is the Best Tool to Identify Toxic Links?

[sbrault74]

I've been using Link Detox from linkresearchtools.com against the list of back links provided in my GWT account although it seems it is not enough.

What tools are the best at identifying toxic links?

Hi sbrault,

I think your problem is more about whether you started with sufficient data.

Check my response on your other thread ... short answer is that the best tool is your brain (in conjunction with your eyes).

Be aware when using algorithmic assessment tools that it is quite common to get both false positives and false negatives!

Yes I know but the GWT data doesn't give me enough information. When I import my GWT backlinks into Link Detox, it gives me back the text anchors, destination URL, nofollow or follow, etc.

Hi,

I'm not referring to the type of data, but whether or not you have a complete view of your backlink profile. If you check the quite lengthy answer I left on your other thread you should see what I mean
