Results After a Disavow File Submission
-
Hi,
I have a client who had a range of spammy links going to their website. The links were from exact match anchor text, from duplicate content and poor quality, irrelevant domains. They also had built a number of sites and linked to my client's site from each of the footers.
All the domains they owned have been redirected to the site we're working on. We also disavowed all the spammy links going to the site.
This was over a month ago and rankings haven't changed and in fact, have gone down slightly.
Is there any other course of action anybody could suggest or should i wait longer in the hope the disavow is still yet to be accounted for?
Any help I'd really, really appreciate!
Thanks

I gave a solid response here which is hugely likely to shed some light on your disavow predicament.
Disavow work is a preventative measure, it is not work which you should 'expect' to raise rankings.
If you didn't replace the disavowed (discredited) backlinks with decent ones, obviously you'll just go down and down
