      So I am going through my backlink profile and of course those random backlinks popup from spammy type sites like this which are useless. Should I worry about links that come from sites like these?

        Hi,

        We too are getting traffic from spammy sites. You can download the spam report from Open Site Explorer - Spam Analysis and submit to Google.

        Hope this helps.

          HI Cesar

          If you're worried about them you could always use the dissavow tool. The truth is we can never be in total control of backlinks as anyone can link to a website. Automated tools pull in content from Blogs, RSS etc. As long as your profile isn't biased to the Dark Side I wouldn't worry too much.

          Keep an eye on it and use the dissavow tool if required.
