Nowadays with Google I would just consider most if not all of those bad links non-existent. In other words Google is ignoring links more than "punishing" you now.
You may have ranked temporarily until Google caught up and then just stopped counting the bad links.
However, IF you get a manual action notice in search console, then the site IS being "punished" and you need to get that removed.
If you do not get a manual action notice, I would just make pretend you're starting from scratch, and you have to build your authority from the start. because of this, there's no time period to wait until it's "fixed" - you most likely will not just recover back to ranking where you were, because the site didn't belong there in the first place.
In general, also, I would focus a lot of your SEO efforts not just on links, but lots of other things like great design, great content, building a known company, getting early traffic with paid channels, doing CRO, creating great UX etc.

There are a lot of resources out there
https://backlinko.com/link-building
http://pointblankseo.com/link-building-strategies
https://yoast.com/successful-linkbuilding-strategy/
http://www.linkbuildingbook.com/
Two methods that consistently work for me are Guest Publishing and replying to HAROS, but both NOT in quantity - just very selectively on high authority sites, with high-quality content, building relationships with the publishers and going for the ones that actually driving referrals and brand awareness (not just doing it for the link).

Hi
can you tell me how can i build quality natural links please ???????
-
Hi
thank you very much for your advice

It may last up to 6-12 Months. I have experienced the same but retrieved the ranking back after 6 month.
Follow some of the rules to get it back in minimum span of time period: -
- Don't make further link building for the same keyword.
- If possible remove backlinking from some of the third party website for the same keyword.
- Try to build links for the variation of keywords not on exact one.
-
Before closing it I recommend you to continue at least for 6-12 months and in this time create natural quality links, maybe you can save it. Also recommend you to try the Disavow Links Tool, maybe you're luckier than me and it works for you
Good luck!

and i get banned for my main keyword barnwood mirror

Gigs on Fiverr worked very well until the Penguin Update, since then, they can push you in your ranks, but very probably, you'll get a "penalty" because of the low qualitity of the links or the artificiality of them.
The "penalty" can last months or maybe forever, because probably is not a penalty, probably is the ranking that Google is giving you analyzing the whole profile of your links. So I recommend you to create natural links to counter the bad effects of this links, or at least, to reduce the percentage of this kind of links in your total but creating natural and high-quality links.
Some people could recommend you also to use the Disavow Links Tool from Google to disavow this links, but in my experience, it did never work.
Good Luck!

Silly Question still - Because I am paying high to google adwords is it possible google can't rank me high in organic?
Hello All, My ecommerce site gone in penalty more than 3 years before and within 3 months I got message from google penalty removed. Since then till date my organic ranking is very worst. In this 3 years I improved my site onpage very great. If I compare my site with all other competitors who are ranking in top 10 then my onpage that includes all schema, reviews, sitemap, header tags, meta's etc, social media, site structure, most imp speed, google page speed insight score, pingdom, w3c errors, alexa rank, global rank, UI, offers, design, content, code to text raito, engagement rate, page views, time on site etc all my sites always good compare to competitors. They also have few backlinks I do have few backlinks only. I am doing very high google adwords and my conversion rate is very very good. But do you think because I am paying since last 3 year high to google because of that google have some setting or strategy that those who perform well in adwords so not to bring up in organic? Is it possible I can talk with google on this? If yes then what will be the medium of conversation? Pls give some valuable inputs I am performing very much in paid so user end site is very very well. Thanks!

Can I Refine My Keyword List to Highlight Top (15) Keywords?
My client is wondering if I could provide him with a list of his site's 15 Top performing SEO keywords. However, based on the layout of everything I've used here on SEOMoz, I don't believe that's possible. Or, am i incorrect? Can you indeed come up with a list of Top (XX) SEO keywords for a given time period, for a campaign/website? Thanks ahead of time.

Google.ca vs Google.com Ranking
I have a site I would like to rank high for particular keywords in the Google.ca searches and don't particularly care about the Google.com searches (it's a Canadian service). I have logged into Google Webmaster Tools and targeted Canada. Currently my site is ranking on the third page for my desired keywords on Google.com, but is on the 20th page for Google.ca. Previously this change happened quite quickly -- within 4 weeks -- but it doesn't seem to be taking here (12 weeks out and counting). My optimization seems to be fine since I'm ranking well on Google.com: not sure why it's not translating to Google.ca. Any help or thoughts would be appreciated.
