      Hello,

      1. Lots of site i have disavow so if i download backlinks of my site from google webmaster so google will ignore the disavow data and give me backlinks other than disavow data?

      2. Same if i use backlink tools like moz or semrush or ahref etc for checking backlinks of my site or competitor site so will this tool ignore the disavow data? If such tools not aware of disavow then it is worthless to check competitor links?

      Thanks!

      dev

          Hi there Dev,

          I'm afraid not, Tools like Moz, majestic and Ahref simply don't have access to the disavow data (some link detox programs let you upload the disavow file that it will remove from the results). Don't worry though they are still disavowed think of it like changing them from follow to no-follow links as this is essentially what is going on.

          Another thing to remember if you download the data you can use some excel magic to remove the disavow data (if you have access) so you're only looking at none disavowed links.

          Hope it helps, and good luck.

            But what about competitors backlinks? If i do competitor backlink analysis by any of the backlink analysis tool like Moz, majestic or ahref etc these tool will not remove the disavow data of competitors. If competitor has disavow any old links then is there anyway i can know it?

            Yes in my case i can remove disavow data via excel but what about competitor's data?

              I'm afraid you are in the same boat as the rest of us of guess work. I tend to assume they have disavowed the low end stuff but there is no way of knowing I'm afraid sorry.+

              If in doubt reverse your roll think if you would disavow it assume they have.
