For those of you that used LINK DETOX.

Did you go ahead and remove all the TOXIC and HIGH RISK links? Just the toxic?

Were you successful with the tool?

All of our Toxic links seemed to have good reason for being labeled such, and I did Disavow those domains. There is LOTS more info in the downloaded CSV files than ever shows on the Link Detox screen.

Some of the High Risk ones were kept. Usually it was the thing about them coming from a de-indexed site or blog. When I looked at the site or blog it appeared to be a nice site that just happened to get hammered by Panda or Penguin. I figured that the owner of the site was working hard on getting the penalty lifted and eventually it would be a good site again.

I also disavowed a few marginal domains to help re-balance my anchor text profile. Which was out of balance enough to get Penguined for the over-optimized keywords.

Successful? We will not know until Google runs a new Penguin update. Hopefully they do it real soon...

I don't know if this is what you want because you did ask specifically about detox however if you're not using that tool one another option I have used

http://www.removeem.com/

I have had a lot of success.

remove'em is also made by a company recommended by Moz called http://www.virante.org/

Hope this was of help,

I have looked at removeem, but their video says "find all the links with keywords in anchor text and remove them".  That sounds like great way to lose even more rankings.   Plus it doesn't really do anything.  You are paying for basically making a spreadsheet from what I see.

I thought about using Link Detox with rmoov.com, or link delete.

I've used Link Detox for a while. I've found that all Toxic links are classified appropriately, but that's not always the case for suspicious and healthy. Links marked as moderate, low risk, or very low risk can still be coming from spammy directories, link lists, massive resource pages, etc. And on the opposite side, sometimes links from BlogSpot blogs will be marked as suspicious even though it's a legit blog that linked naturally to you. They're just flagged because they have few backlinks or low trust. It's best to do a manual review of each link to see what's really worth keeping.

I've used Link Detox with Rmoov in the past and had good results with it. Rmoov is easy to use and keeps track of everything for you in a Google Doc.
