Technorati links. good? or bad?

[shauny35]

Hi all

After an unnatural link warning I am about to do my third reconsideration request after having my previous two turned down.

I have manually removed hundreds of spammy links (thousands if you include sitewide) and used the disavow tool on hundreds more where I could not get them manually removed. The backlinks I have remaining now all seem to be genuine.

There are quite a few backlinks from technorati, I thought these were ligitimet links but am now thinking should I remove/disavow them.

Does anybody have any opinions?

Think about it this way, if you are a user of technorati, would you be interested in your site? Would you click on an article and read it?

If yes, it's relevant, otherwise probably not, but even so I find it highly unlikely to affect you negatively.

Thanks Peter,

All my articles are all current, unique and relevant to their particular audience, it just worries me that there seems to be so many links from Technorati, especially now most of my other links have gone they seem to stand out in my profile

I have just posted on Google Webmaster forum regarding MANUAL PENALTY.  http://productforums.google.com/forum/#!category-topic/webmasters/webmaster-tools/5uv-9v_fDrU

Someone was kind enough to respond and indicated that part of the problem could be Technorati.  Can anyone tell me if they are getting penalized from backlinks from Technorati as well?

Kind regards,
