Hi Matt

We have a penalty on our website and we are email websites owners who link to us that we feel are of low quality. I am getting quite a few emails back asking for payment to remove these links. Should I pay or report these sites to Google?

For one of my clients, I found and analysed around 40000+ backlinks which are spammy and irrelevant. I tried removing it using dvow links providing the list of links, however, thought it removed, it did not remove it completely, still I find around 1400 links, now trying to contact the webmasters of those sites, requesting to remove my link from their website, with no reponse . So is there a way, I can block these?

So basically it’s very easily to have your online reputation destroyed by a bad SEO guy, and very easy to do the same to a competitor? This new tool is welcome but why doesn’t Google simply remove the links deemed as spammy automatically, Google knows which links need to be removed and could very easily just discount them.

I have to say that since Google started sending Unnatural Link Penalty emails we have received a TON of emails about removing links from directories we don’t control. People make the assumption that somehow we can control people’s use of our software. I actually am glad google did this because we don’t like people using our software for the wrong reason either, but we had plenty of work replying to people. I’m hoping this disavow tool will mean the emails will stop.

Matt,

According to WMT, there’s a page on the DAILEYINT.COM website with 191,004 incoming links, (I swear it was 202,000 last time I looked) but only 6 referring domains, one obviously some SEO spammer, with 955 links and the others with only one. The page hasn’t even existed in a couple years.

If you have any interest in the phenomena, I’d be happy to 301 that page to the location of your choice. Lord knows I’ve already 301′d all my remaining heavily plagiarized computer resources off the site in a last ditch effort to help my 92 year old ex-business partner’s history pages recover from the 90% beating Panda gave them.
