I Mistakenly uploaded Disavow File to Non WWW version of Webiste in Webmaster Tools...is this a Problem???

[CamMcArthur]

Hey guys and gals,

I need some advice on this please.  I recently had someone perform a negative S.E.O campaign on my site and I was inundated with 13,000 + spammy links pointing to my website and I had to perform a Disavow in Google Webmaster Tools but for some reason, it is showing that I uploaded the Disavow text file to the Non WWW version of the website but the WWW version of my website is the preferred domain and I have all NON WWW queries being 301 redirected to www.pcmedicsoncall.com

My question is should I correct this and upload the Disavow text to the preferred domain in Google Webmaster Tools???

Please advise on how I should proceed with this situation....

Thank you.

I upload disavows to both versions - so I would simply say add it to the www one as well.

(I've submitted a LOT of disavows - this has never been a problem.)

Thank you so much for your response Mark I truly appreciate your insight through your experience with having done this numerous times.

I had done some searching earlier and saw that people were saying it was not wise to delete a disavow file so...I just figured that I would go with the logical approach and just submit one for the www version of my site.

Thanks again for sharing your experience Mark and believe me, it's comforting to know that what I did by submitting the disavow file to the www version is not going to hinder or hurt me.

Why is GOOGLE such a bunch of Nazi Douche Bags anymore?....Oh yeah...MONEY... I guess 64 Billion a year is not satisfactory enough....I really despise GOOGLE with a passion these days and wish someone would get rid of this company!!!!

Just a quick reminder, this is Moz, and we ask that you be TAGFEE in your tone. No need to invoke Godwin's Law in Q&A. Thanks!

If you don't mind me asking what is TAGFEE?  Google are a bunch of tyrants that indiscriminately kill off legitimate small business and are accountable to no one for anything that they do and you are asking me to be politically correct when making reference towards Google? Why?

I would say that this is the majority of the problem with what is going on. Everyone agrees just to agree because it's google and I see a lot of highly intelligent people having technical conversations about these super imposed games of hop scotch backwards that google inflicts upon all of us and yet no one says or does anything. I believe that would make those who participate part of the problem not part of the solution wouldn't you agree?

If anything, people need to start voicing their true opinions and feelings about what is going on and all of us should come together and put an end to this crap once and for all!!! GOOGLE IS A DICTATOR that is trying to disassemble the internet and make a 2 classification system of masters and slaves. Which side of the fence  do you think you will be banished to when this comes to pass?

Sorry but I have my view points based on analyzing data for the past 6 years now and I apologize if you do not agree with my view points on what is what.

Thank you for reading.

TAGFEE stands for our core values of Transparent, Authentic, Generous, Fun, Empathetic, and Exceptional. I perhaps should have instead linked to our Community Etiquette page at http://moz.com/community/blog-disclaimer.

In short, let's keep this Q&A discussion related to the question -- what to do when the disavow file is uploaded to the non-www version of a domain instead of the www version in GWT.
