Where should I go to hire an all star SEO person? Everyone on this forum is so knowledgeable and I would really like to hire some good, professional, proactive, SEO manager.
-
I just don't want to disavow without trying to get them removed first. I thought that we should attempt to remove first.
-
This is a very nice and knowledgeable comment. I am so happy with the nice people on this forum.
-
That's a very good point. We have gotten the latter. We are working hard on it, but it's a tedious process. We also need advice on anchor text. We have some over optimized anchor text that needs to be fixed, but I don't know how.
-
Thanks a lot. We are working on it. I love the answers on here. Everyone is so nice.

Hi Sean,
It really depends what type of service you are looking for.
The two you mentioned are quite different services.
Remove'em uses algorithmic analysis to highlight links it thinks should be removed if you use the Self Service option. They also provide a full service option which would mean that the analysts at Virante (the company that builds the tool) would manage every element of the campaign for you. As far as I am aware there is no trial available, but there is a video tutorial which shows you how the Self Service version works - Starts with Self Service at $249 per domain.
To be honest, Link Delete doesn't seem to actually give any details as to how or what they do apart from generally helping to clean up your backlinks. Starts at $97 per month for 1 domain with a max of 400 linking URLs (3 different Plans)
Another service which provides algorithmic analysis as part of their service is Link Detox, which is part of the Link Research Tools suite. You can get started with an initial report by paying with a tweet, get Daypass access (72 hours) for 30 euros, or 2 Link Detox credits that last for a month at a cost of 50 euros.
rmoov is a link removal outreach tool which does NOT provide algorithmic analysis (because we believe good analysis = eyes on sites), but helps to automate much of the outreach process that Marie described once you have a list of the URLs you want links removed from. It has been specifically built to help those dealing with a manual spam action to manage link removal outreach at scale and to provide a level of reporting detail that will meet the Webspam team's expectations when considering a reconsideration request. rmoov allows the user to choose the level of automation or manual work they wish to do, so analysts like myself and Marie can run it as an aid to a predominantly manual process, while those who prefer can make use of automated link checking etc.
rmoov has a free Basic account which allows 1 campaign at a time with a max of 25 linking root domains and/or 250 linking URLs. This free account does not provide automated link checking or pulling of domain contact info, but does not expire. Paid subscriptions start at $49 per month for 5 active campaigns at a time with a max of 100 linking root domains and 1000 linking URLs. (4 different subscription plans). In the interest of full disclosure: I work for the company that develops rmoovThere is another service called Delete Backlinks which provides a pay per link service. This appears to be offered by a company that owns, controls or has agreements with a large number of directory sites. With this service you enter your domain and they provide a list of the links they have access to which will be removed. Pricing starts from 99 cents per link for the first 5 links with the cost per link reducing on a sliding scale according to the number of links you want removed.
Hope that helps,
Sha

Disavowing links is ok, but won't remove any penalty in place (if you have one). I do use it as part of my efforts to help clients that have been hit and include this in the documentation I send to google for the reconsideration request. Not had a request rejected so far...but then I've only had to do 10 or so.
-
For the sites that I work on I do everything manually. I review each link and assess whether or not they are likely to be considered natural and then I gather email addresses, whois addresses and urls of contact forms. I contact each of the sites and document my efforts to Google. It works well but takes time.
But, before you do so, make sure you have a "true" unnatural links warning. There are many lately that Google is putting out that have no yellow caution sign and say, "we are reducing trust in some of your links". For those you may not have to go through the whole process.
-
Have you received some type of warning from a search engine about your links? Have you tried contacting the sites that own the links yet? If you can give us a little more background on your situation we can help a bit more with a good answer.
-
Thanks. I am choosing to delete the links because I thought that's what Google wanted. I thought they did not like us to use the disavowal tool. Do you have a different experience? I thought the disavowal tool was the last resort.
-
Why are you choosing to delete the links? My recommendation would be to simply use Google's disavow tool to let Google know which links you don't want counted toward your site.

Is there some reason you want them actually deleted? Using disavow is a best practice and will be much quicker and cheaper.
Good luck!

Canonicalize vs Link Juice
I recently wrote (but have not published) a very comprehensive original article for my new website (which has pretty much no domain authority). I've been talking to the publisher of a very high Domain Authority site and they are interested in publishing it. The article will include 2-3 follow backlinks to my website. My question is should I: Repost the article in my own site and then request a "rel=canonical" from the high authority site Not re-post the article on my own site and just collect the link juice from the high authority site Which would be better for my overall SEO? Assume in case 1) that the high authority site would add a rel=canonical if I asked for it.

Linking C blocks strategy - Which hat is this tactic?
This related to a previous question I had about satellite sites. I questioned the white-hativity of their strategy. Basically to increase the number of linking C blocks they created 100+ websites on different C blocks that link back to our main domain. The issue I see is that- the sites are 98% exactly the same in appearance and content. Only small paragraph is different on the homepage. the sites only have outbound links to our main domain, no in-bound links Is this a legit? I am not an SEO expert, but have receive awesome advice here. So thank you in advance!

Do bad links "hurt" your ranking or just not add any value
Do bad links "hurt" your ranking or just not add any value. By this I mean, if you do have links from link farms and bad neighbourhoods, would it effectively pull you down in search engine rankings. Or is it more that it's just a waste of time to get these links, as it adds no value to your ranking. Are google saying avoid them because it will not have a positive effect, or avoid them becuase it will have a negative effect. I am under the opinion that it will not harm, but it will not help either. I think this because at the end of the day you are not 100% in control of your inbound links, any bad site could add you and if a competitor, god forbid, wanted to play some black hat games, couldn't they just add you to thousands of bad sites to pull your ranking down? Interested to hear your opinions on the matter, or any "facts" if they are out there.
