Very unsure about thousands of backlinks from jesse tree
-
Google Search Console shows 4K backlinks from jessetree.net (i do not see this backlink in Moz inbound links though). I have been tracking backlinks from this domain for half a year and it fluctuates between 1K and 6K is the highest I have seen it, not sure what is causing the link count to change. We are using Google's disavow tool against this domain and have been for 5 months. Does anyone have any idea what jesse tree is and any insight into this odd (to me) backlink situation?

This probably isn't the last time you'll see some odd linking behavior to your site. You're doing the right thing by keeping an eye out on your backlink profile.

Thank you for your response. So I looked at what pages in my site these backlinks link to, looking at GSC > Links > Top linking sites > jessetree.net, and all 4k+ links to my home page. Just to make sure, i checked other GSC properties on my radar and see if a domain backlins to multiple pages, GSC shows it. But in the case of jessetree.net, everything links to the home page. in fact, GSC also shows 1 for target pages from this domain. then i went deeper with GSC > latest links and found 2 links from this domain and loaded them for insight, but only see a WordPress error. So nothing really learned there.
GSC > latest links, 2 instanced of 4k+ linking to my home page
these links just load a wordpress error.

https://jessetree.net/listingcategory/the-childrens-center-programs/Maybe just have to chalk it up to what ya suggested: If you have disavowed the whole domain, then there is nothing to worry about.

Have you tried looking at the nature of some of these links? What do the pages with the links look like? its not uncommon to see things like this... there could be many explanations - spam, scraping bots, remnants of staging environments amongst a few.
If you have disavowed the whole domain, then there is nothing to worry about.

Are "Powered By..." type footer backlinks good or bad for SEO?
Hi guys, We're running a software company which is also selling WP themes amongst other things. We've heard recently that footer backlinks like "Powered by BigBangThemes" might do more harm than good. Some clients usually forget to change them - so we want to make sure we stop including them in case this is true. Thanks!

Can you buy backlinks from fiverr?
Hi Mozers, I though a while ago I heard that buying backlinks was a no go, until I seen and read this article: I notice the guy that wrote the article suggested that you can buy backlinks from fiverr, and also just make sure they are do-follow backlinks. Can someone please correct me and perhaps clear my confusion over this. As far as I knew it was best to build backlinks by doing guest posting and engaging in relevant forums? Heres the article: http://socialmediafuze.com/10-backlink-strategies-business/ Thanks guys

Danger in using utm_source and utm_medium to track tens of thousands of cross domain redirects
We just merged with another company and are redirecting their domains (competitive/similar content) to our own. We'll have several domains, redirecting (301) several hundred thousand URL's to our domain (not all the same page, very unique mappings). Will adding utm_source, et al parameters to the URL's have a negative impact on how google transfers value to the pages based on the redirect authority passed? Any points of view? We have a self referencing canonical, but given that we have 90 million pages on the current domain (and climbing), seems like cleanest approach would be to not use redirects. Thanks, Jeff

EDU Backlinks wrapped in Wiki worthwhile?
I asked below question yesterday and got some answers, but am still looking for more justification whether such links are worthwhile getting or not. Here is the question: An SEO expert offers my site backlinks from .edu's wrapped in wiki. Structure as follows "wiki.xxx.UNINAME.edu/etc..etc" - the pages have authority of 1 (domain obviously high with the dot edu) but there is no relevant info on the pages and obviously wiki links are no follow. This does not sound right to me, but can anyone share some insight since it is wiki + edu combined it sounds on surface like credibility, but with page having no relevant content I feel it isn't right.
