Dear all,
On jun 20 I have uploaded a disavow file including some domains by error (good links), my question is could I remove from the Disavow file these domains and update it again, so Google will take the removed domains again as good links?
Thank you
Dear Dan,
I agree with you 100%, so which tool are you using to detect duplication with other sites for example pages on our site duplicated with tucows.
There are any massive or batch way to detect it.
We feel this is the major issue with our site.
Waiting for your response
Thank you
Claudio
Dear Alexander,
You should provide access to Google WMT to take a look at the source of your 404, also provide access to your CMS if the issue is cause by your system and even provide access to your hosting server to work on your HTACCES file to 301 or 410 pages according needs.
You can email me at webmaster @ freesharewaredepot . com (Im the SEO of this directory)
Hope it helps
YES absolutelly, (Always at domain level) it prevents future new pages from the spammy domain linking your pages, only you can use subdomain level where the links comes from authority domains, for example blogs on blogspot ie: linking.blogspot.com in this case you should include on your disavow file only the subdomain linking.blogspot.com and at the TLD level ".com" which includes all the regional like .com.tw , .com.ar etc
Use to detect bad links as many tools as you can starting with Google WMT, bING WMT, yandex WMT, SeoMOZ, ahref, linkdetrox etc.
Hope it helps
My friend Evan,
Google get thousand of innocent reconsideration request, saying "I'm innocent" for example if you tag any page with the robots meta tag "OINDEX,FOLLOW" it always will consider it as NOINDEX,FOLLOW they assume the pesimistic option, so if you has spammy links, you has two options, the first is remove all of them which will save your site or leave it and be penalized or rank low .....
Again my experience is assume that Google will think you're the responsible (the pesimistic option) and try to remove all the possible links and the rest should be disavowed and never try to joke the links to your site, think Google has the 90% of the market on the internet, so your site and mime are not the most important.
Recently Google has penalized to ebay and many others ....
Hope it helps
Dear Kevin,
I feel you are an expert SEO (I was looking for this), I agree 100% with you, about the schema, I was adding it and for my surprise it is not W3C compliant, also I add this to other pages (other sites) and no improvements at all, at this time
I'll increase the font size, this was a concern for me, anyway I'm using the same font size of my competitors.
Finally, do you think this page can be catched by Google as Keyword sttuffing ?
Claudio
Dear kevin,
I know that and usually use them, I need a human eyes different to mime to detect any possible keyword joke on this page, Im working hard to revamp this site
Thank you
Claudio
I was dealing with DISAVOW for a long time and my conclusions are:
1. Remove as many links as you can.
2. The remaining links (bad or suspicious) should be included into a DISAVOW file and upload it to Google Disavow tool.
This allow your site to keep safe for future and coming penalties or rank issues.
PS.: Google can detect all the un-natural link schemes better than you and me ....
Hope it helps

Dear Alexander,
You should check on WMT if the source page which links to the bad url is a internal page, in this case fix the error, it could affect your site health and of course your rank, and if they comes from external sources, if the source site is and authority, I recommends to use 301 pointing to the page where should be linked, if not the 404 from external sources not causes any issue on your site.
Hope it helps
Dear Evan,
You could get a Google manual-penalty, or simply be affected by an algorithm penalty (Penguin), so the best practice is:
1. Contact the webmaster of these sites and ask for link removal.
2. The remaining links should be included on the DISAVOW file at domain level.
You should be use to construct your link profile several sources, such as Google WMT, Bing WMT, Yandex WMT and of cours several tools such as ahref, SeoMoz, LinkMajestic and LinkDetrox, and other tools, each bad link you detect and get remove from there is a goal and prevent future penalties or gradual downgrades of your rank.
Good luck
I recommends, before to pay for the work, the link-company should sent you the list of the domains where they will put your links, and you should check:
1. The IP where the linking domain is hosted (prevents link farms or other networks, Google knows that).
2. The owner of the domain "attention with hidden registrants", several companies collect hundred of blogs and forums to use for link building and of course Google know that.
3. These links should be included in a natural way (no all links in the same week).
Be carefully, last year I bought a pack of 50 links (PR/3/4/5/6) and for my surprise, no one improvement in ranking ... SO Google knows these people.
Hope it helps
Hello,
The amount of links depends of different things, so the best is get these links in a reazonable quantity, so all sites has a ratio of links gained and losed by month.
If you get 1000 new links in a week, it is suspicious for Google and "penalty" is comming.
At this time the only secret about links is:
1. Natural links (most possible natural).
2. Authority sites and related to your niche.
3. Get these links in a reazonable basis.
Hope it helps

Hello mates,
Our site is an e-comerce site http://goo.gl/4QBVjR has been hit hard by the latest
Panda on the last weekend as many other sites such as Retailmenot etc.
We were working hard from one year til now:1. Rewrite all the pages with pour content (less than 100 words), and non-original content.2. The pages where was impossible rewrite the content were 410 gone.3. About the link profile, we were removing all the unnatural links by contacting thewebmaster and finally updating a DISAVOW file at monthly basis.All these tasks were performed and we see some improvements close to the original traffic before 2012Now from the last weekend our traffic down again, so we need to know if we can do anythingor there are something hidden from our eyes.Thank youClaudio

Dear Friends,
One of my customers was hit by the Panda, we were working on improve the tiny content on several pages and the remaining pages were:
1 NOINDEX/FOLLOW
2. Removed from sitemap.xml
3. Un-linked from the site (no one page on the site link to the pour content)
As conclusion we can't see any improvement, my question is should I remove the pour content pages (404)?
What is your recommendation?
Thank you for your time
Claudio
Dear Casey,
The new domain is on a different C-class, the whois info is different and event locked as private, the WMT and GAnalitycs will be on a different account, the design will be different and even I have planed upload a few products (pages) to start, and also it will be blocked by robots.
But my question is "is dangerous start with similar content to the old site", (some pages has a great content well written)
At this time I was working for two years with the old site and the traffic is recovery too slow, so our time has finished this is why we want to start a new domain using some of the old pages (previously marked as NOINDEX on the old site
Thank you for your time and knowledge
Dear Mates,
To clarify, I was working two years trying to resolve it, for example the toxic links comes from spam blogs created by competitors, take a look at this samples there are 200 blogs containing exactly this page and our site is linked there:
My plan is to create a fresh new site NO-301 no redirections, but I want to use some of the well performing contents (more than 500 words, well written), using these steps:
1. Make on the old site the content as NOINDEX.
2. Wait 15 days.
3. upload this content to the new site.
Do you think it could be dangerous?
Thank you for your responses
