Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Well for starters, it will level the playing field that has been altered pending what SEO tools site you use, each site having their pro's and con's about them, with google releasing their 360 suite, these site's will up their game that much more to retain users meaning we'll not have to pick or choose what site to be a part of, we'll have the same tools available, at the same indexing power. Or google will be so good with their indexing that these sites we all use will be for community questions and answers / blogs only. I would like to see a better backlink index setup from MOZ, as I'm not paying for ahref.com and others if I already have one here. IMO google sees adwords writing on the wall of SERPs and knows that organic search will become the norm and they'll either get rid of adwords completely or stuff it to the side again so they don't lose users to another less ad crammed SERPs. Their moving towards mobile mainly right now, which ads really should have no place in, since the size issue is that much more stressed. With virtual reality and augmented reality, SERPs will change as well as ads, this archaic means of paying for exposure works but won't for much longer as users have more and more avenues to turn to when frustrated. The 360 suite interests me, however I don't see myself jumping ship just yet.

Hi, When I see links like this, the first thing I worry about is whether your site has been hacked. But yes, attempts at negative SEO are possible as well. Whenever, Google is asked about negative SEO like this they say that they are generally really good at determining that these are not links that you made yourself and that you are safe to ignore them. But, they do always recommend disavowing just to be sure. Here are my thoughts on your questions: Do these links hurt your SEO, even if nofollowed? If nofollowed they are no harm to you. However, in some hackings what the hackers will do is point thousands of nofollowed links from domains they control and then, somewhere down the road they can change them to followed. As such, in this case I'd still disavow the nofollowed links. What else can you do other than disavow? Not much unfortunately. If you find that a lot of these links point to a particular page you can 404 or 410 that page and that will get rid of the links. But otherwise, sadly, there's not much else you can do. Most likely Google will ignore these links but no one can say for sure.
