Negative SEO & How long does it take for Google to disavow
-
Following on from a previous problem of 2 of our main pages completely dropping from index, we have discovered that 150+ spam, porn domains have been directed at our pages (sometime in the last 3-4 months, don't have an exact date).
Does anyone have exerpeince on how long it may take Google to take noticed of a new disavow list? Any estimates would be very helpful in determining our next course of action.

@Kamikam12 said in Negative SEO & How long does it take for Google to disavow:
Funny small world, because I remember advising a while back to your competitor https://www.קמגרה.com/
and he asked me to do disavow for domains like avigabbay.co.il that you redirected to their website.
Luckily I don't work in that niche anymore. -
Hi , someone made spam redirect to my website https://קמגרה.net/
And domain owner using DNS 301 redirect technic and it's not working with scripts to block the redirect, i contacted domain registr company "porkbun " to report abuse and they say they can't do nothing about it, what else can i do to block -

It requires 2 to 90 days for denied connections to quit being viewed as a feature of a connection profile," says legitimate SEO master Neil Patel on his blog. Remember that Google doesn't ensure that all backlinks recorded in Search Console will be repudiated. For example, my website had spam score 44 - I had disavow hundreds of backlinks but it take time to lower the spam score of my site. -
I found hundreds of spammy links pointing to my website ```
Beatdreamer.com - have now submitted the disavow file to Google, fingers crossed. -
I found a lot of new links to my website proffsit.se
The question is if should I remove spammy sites with high DA as well? question is if should I remove spammy sites with high DA as well?

1.) It depends on Google's perception of what has happened, you may or may not get those rankings back (ever)
i. If Google applied 'active' ranking reductions (usually signified by a penalty message in Google Search Console) then the disavow work alone wouldn't work, you'd also need to submit a reconsideration request. For a recon request to go through, especially a links one, it ranges from 2 weeks to 4 months for them to even respond to it (the higher range is usually for repeat offenders)
ii. If Google applied active ranking reductions without serving you a penalty notice, the disavow on its own should be processed relatively quickly and rankings should begin returning a week or two after the disavow is processed. Note that this is the rarest circumstance, Google almost never apply active ranking reductions without also sending a penalty notification
iii. If Google didn't apply any active ranking reductions, it simply means that links which used to count - no longer pass SEO authority. Doing a disavow doesn't magically bring the authority back (so in this situation you don't see ranking gains from disavow work, this would be called an algorithmic devaluation - not a penalty)
Items (i) and (iii) are infinitely more commonplace than (ii), which is extremely rare
2.) Build good links to replace the crappy ones you have lost

Thanks for your response!
We only disavowed the bad links yesterday not afew months ago, however, none of these links where here last time we checked which was afew months ago. These links are still appearing on Google Console however, it hasn't been 48 hours.
Many of them are linking to websites that seem to be down, however some are actual porn/spam sites. We're very concerned as this has happened the week of Black Friday and we are scratching our heads looking for a fast solution.
**Â So the questions are;**
_**1. While we understand we need to wait 48 hours for these links to be disavowed, how long after they are disavowed would it take to have the our website reappearing on Google again?
2. What else can we do to speed up recovery penalty from unwanted nasty backlinks? **_

I'm pretty sure it's variable and depends on Google's perceived severity of infraction. I've seen disavow lists that never make a difference one way or the other, and ones where the list has been digested and I'm seeing movements within the next few days. Usually speaking, I find that if there's absolute zero impact for a couple of weeks, it's time to stop waiting as the list has probably been rejected, discarded or the work was incorrect and thus it had no impact. It's fairly unusual to submit a disavow, wait for weeks or months and then suddenly it kicks in. In my experience, they're relatively quick-acting! If you have waited nearly half a year I'd say that more waiting isn't going to help

I'm looking for a bulk way to take off from the Google search results over 600 old and inexisting pages?
When I search on Google site:alexanders.co.nz still showing over 900 results. There are over 600 inexisting pages and the 404/410 errrors aren't not working. The only way that I can think to do that is doing manually on search console using the "Removing URLs" tool but is going to take ages. Any idea how I can take down all those zombie pages from the search results?

How necessary is it to disavow links in 2017? Doesn't Google's algorithm take care of determining what it will count or not?
Hi All, So this is a obvious question now. We can see sudden fall or rise of rankings; heavy fluctuations. New backlinks are contributing enough. Google claims it'll take care of any low quality backlinks without passing pagerank to website. Other end we can many scenarios where websites improved ranking and out of penalty using disavow tool. Google's statement and Disavow tool, both are opposite concepts. So when some unknown low quality backlinks are pointing and been increasing to a website? What's the ideal measure to be taken?

Social Impacts on SEO? How to Do this?
I'm new in SEO and heard by one of my friend that social signals are important for SEO of a website. If people have shared a website's url on their twitter, then it will automatically get rank in google. Is that true and how google sees this social sharing? and how can I do this for my website?

Website not properly listed on google organic despite SEO efforts
Hello, I have worked thoroughly on my website tags including HTML titles, URLs, H1 headers and text on each section. The problem is that despite this effort, my website does not seem to improve in terms of ranking (the onsite optimization has been done 6 months ago already). We have a sitemap, we have done link building and everything but still no tangible progress. The anomaly I am experiencing is the following: If I search on Google.com.lb for "aparment for sale in lebanon" I don't get the section on my website that is optimized for that particular query (which is the Buy section located here http://www.ramcolb.com/apartment-sale-beirut-lebanon). my site appears only on page 6 but the Homepage appears which is very counter intuitive because it is not optimized for the "apartment for sale in Lebanon" keyword. And this anomaly is present on almost all sections and their relevant queries. The relevant section for the particular query never appears, it is always another irrelevant section that appears but far in the listings (beyond page 6). It is as if Google hasn't indexed properly my website and is mixing up the sections... Has anyone experienced this type of problems? what can be done? Thanks in advance

What is the value of Google Crawling Dynamic URLS with NO SEO
Hi All I am Working on travel site for client where there are 1000's of product listing pages that are dynamically created.  These pages are not SEO optimised and are just lists of products with no content other than the product details. There are no meta tags for title and description on the listings pages.  You then click Find Out more  to go to the full product details.  There is no way to SEO these Dynamic pages This main product details has no content other than details and  now meta tags. To help increase my google rankings for the rest of the site which is search optimised would it be better to block google from indexing these pages. Are these pages hurting my ability to improve rankings if my SEO of the content pages has been done to a good level with good unique Titles, descriptions and useful content thanks In advance John

Pagination & SEO
I have the WP-Pagination plugin and I am wondering how to handle duplicate content issues and what's best for SEO. My developer initially downloaded the plugin to speed up loading for the home page. Now my home page has 21 pages of paginated content. But the pagination continues with each of my categories as well. Should I be placing a canonical reference to my home page, or category main page? My site name is gracessweetlife (dot) com
