Submit new list of links to be disavowed

[revenuexl]

I had a question and I am hoping that some one on this community will be able to help clarify.

We went through a link removal and disavow process last year. If we see more unnatural links showing up in our link profile and we want to disavow those links, what should be included in the new list of links that need to be disavowed:

1. Only new links or domains
2. Old list that was disavowed + new list that needs to be disavowed

Thank you in advance for your help.

Hi there

If you need to update your disavow file, you're going to do number 2.

Here's a great resource on disavow files from Moz. It says the following:

"Disavow tip: When you upload a new disavow file, you are COMPLETELY REWRITING your old file. If your old file has 300 domains in it and you want to add 30 new domains, your new file will have 330 domains in it." Take the time to read through it - there is a ton of great information and will help you immensely.

Hope this helps! Good luck!

One additional point on disavowing, when looking at sites, don't automatically disavow a single bad link as a page - if you think that there is a chance you could see a link from a site you never want a link from, disavow at a domain level. Leave page-level disavows for those links where you might just not be happy with what you have this time.
