-
Hello,
I purchased a backlink service and I think the most of them were spam sites and sites like that.
I am lossing Organic traffic, Im sure that my site is penalized, how long will last it?Can I do something?
Thank you

Are you sure the link are spam? What about your own website? What if links have simply exposed it to Google's on-page filters?

first of all don't panic, wait for google to notify you.
Meanwhile you may want to see where are you losing that organic traffic. If the loss is at page level you may want to check if the pages which are losing traffic (and so rankings) are also heavy linked. If that so you may want to disavow those links and try to recover your rankings.
If the site was hit as a whole you should have received a notification by google or will receive that shortly. In that case just go on with a full disavow and start the reconsideration request telling them in details what you did, what you're doing to recover in details, and apologize for all your bad guy actions taken
-
Have you got any email notifying that you are penalized by Google.Link penalty or anything like it.
if you are sure about low quality links surely use Google Disavow tool to get rid of them.

SEMrush Backlink Damaging SEO?
I did a test recently with a sponsored article for some of my products, including my most popular product (https://www.spaceanswers.com/sponsored/sponsored-wear-a-piece-of-the-universe-with-the-space-collectives-meteorite-jewellery/) and it just so happens that recently this very product dropped from 2nd position to 51+, I have since managed to restore it to 6th position but I am wondering if this article is damaging my efforts? SEMrush is showing a page score of 4/100 and a trust score of 3/100, which is obviously very low. Is this helping or hurting my SEO?

How to identify spammy website before making backlinks on them
Hi, I search in google but didnt find a proper answer for this! maybe search an incorrect keyword! The question is, How can I find out a website that I'm going to make a backlink on is a spammy website? For example I did this guest bloging on this good website: Best Sure-Shot Organic Pest Control Approaches Every Gardener Should Know | Balcony Garden Web But it seems to be spammy because I use SEO POWERSUIT software that shows this backlink is 20% risk of google penalty! Is it right!? So how can we rest assured for making a quality backlink? I can not think any other way 😞

While analyzing competition, I frequently see backlinks being the biggest factor at deciding rank for keywords, while content and keyword page grading can say great things, it always comes down to backlinks it seems. Even our DA is better or equal, Why would this be?

Adding backlinks in old articles?
I am trying to get a few more links to get a few of my pages to rank and I am thinking about adding some more backlinks on my own site on some of the old blog articles as well as some of my other related blogs. My question is - is it still beneficial to link from these articles that are say 1 year old or more, or would it be far more valuable to write new articles on the blog containing those same links?

How good is a backlink that's in the footer
Hello, The strongest site in our industry (according to domain authority and excluding wikipedia) said that they would put a sitewide link to us in their footer. We're good friends with them. It would be right next to the copyright. Our site is nlpca (dot) com The partner site is nlpu (dot) com The link will say something like "More NLP Training" with the "NLP" as the link. We're targeting the keyword "NLP" How much will this move us up for the keyword "NLP"? Right now we're on the 3rd page for that term. I also want to make sure that it's a white hat move. Thanks!
