      How do identify if somebody is giving you negative links. If I look at who is linking my site I suddenly see an none related website linking to my site

      http://plastische-chirurgie-borsten.be/

      URL is translated "plastic-surgery-breast" The site is full of links. Would this be an attempt to negative SEO?

      How can I see the effect of such links?
      Should I disavow this link?

      kind regards,

        It will take a lot of effort in time and money for negative SEO to have an impact.  I would suggest contacting the site and request the link/s be removed if the site is not relevant and spammy.  At the same time to negate any negative linking you should be continually developing your link profile so any single instances like this are watered down by an excellent profile.
