Is there any way to resolve this? -
Identify Problematic Links: Use various tools and techniques to identify the links that you want to disavow. These may include backlink analysis tools, manual inspection of your link profile, or identification of suspicious or low-quality links.
Create Disavow File: Open a plain text editor (such as Notepad) and create a file. Each line in the file should contain either the URL or domain that you want to disavow. Use the "domain:" prefix to disavow an entire domain (e.g., "domain:example.com"). Save the file with a ".txt" extension (e.g., "disavow.txt").
Submit the Disavow File to Google: Upload the disavow file to the Google Disavow Tool using the following link: https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/disavow-links-main. Sign in with the Google account associated with your website.
Select Your Website: Choose the website for which you want to disavow links.
Upload the Disavow File: Click on the "Choose file" button and select the disavow file you created.
Review and Submit Disavow File: Review the previewed disavow list to ensure its accuracy. If everything looks correct, click on the "Submit" button to submit the disavow file to Google.
Monitor the Disavowed Links: Regularly monitor your website's link profile using Google Search Console or other SEO tools to ensure that the disavowed links no longer impact your website's search performance. -
Here are the steps to disavow links with Google Search Console:
Log in to your Google Search Console account and select the website you want to disavow links for.
Go to the "Links" tab under the "Search Traffic" section in the left-hand navigation menu.
Click on "More" and select "Disavow Links."
Click on "Disavow Links" again to confirm that you want to disavow links for your website.
Upload a file containing the list of links you want to disavow. The file should be in plain text format (.txt) and should contain one URL per line.
Once you have uploaded the file, click on the "Submit" button to complete the disavowal process.
It's important to note that disavowing links should only be done as a last resort, and it's recommended that you first try to remove any bad links manually or by reaching out to the website owners. Additionally, it may take some time for Google to process your disavowal request and for any changes to take effect in your search engine rankings.

Hi @Ryka1234 If you want to submit disavow link to google disavow tool you just visit on https://search.google.com/search-console/disavow-links and select you property and submit you disavow.txt file.

If you have a domain property in Google Console, you cannot submit a disavow file. However, you can contact Google's Search Console support team and ask them to manually review your disavow list. You can also create a new Google Console property that is specifically for disavowing domains and links.

Unsolved Links to my website are wrong
Hi, I have launch a new website, lorraine on october of 2021 and I have added it to a bunch a local and national directories to improme it local rankings. But when I get the domain authority and link data from MOZ it has only ten links and no one of them is from local/national directories. I have three questions: Do you know if it is normal that after 9 months DA is 1? Is there any problem with local/national directory links? I dont like buy links like others do but it seems the only way to improve domain authority and rankings.

Should I disavow these links?
Hi all, I have a ski website that I am currently performing a toxic backlink audit on. I have noted that a lot of the links being flagged as toxic/spammy by the tool I am using seem to be the same/similar sites with different URLs. The sites are vaguely related to skiing (relating to helicopter travel options for travelling to ski resorts) but it is concerning me that there are so many of them and they are being flagged as so toxic.

Do you think it is worth disavowing these? Or contacting the owner to ask them to remove the link? I have included an example of some of the links below. https://www.cannes-helicopters.co.uk/index.php?menuopen=21&showcontent=5
https://nice-helicopter.co.uk/index.php?menuopen=21&showcontent=5
https://monaco-helicopter.co.uk/index.php?menuopen=21&showcontent=5 Slightly different site but same favicon icon:

How to download full list of internal links properly with OSE?
Hi Moz Community, I am having issues getting a full list of my internal links when I go to the Open Site Explorer. When I export the internal links into excel, I am getting half of my URLs and 80% of what I am getting is absolutely crazy URLs that are super super old. Plus, these old URLs are not even showing in my campaign crawls. So the crawls themselves are different. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated, since I am trying to get a full picture on the internal link structure of my site. Thanks!

301 Redirects: How long for Google to recognize? How long for Moz/OSE to recognize?
I redirected a few pages that had funky URL issues (capitals and underscores and useless words) to the same page renamed with proper URLs. The sitemaps were changed also, and re-submitted. Like this: mydomain.com/Not_Pertinent_Words.html >>> mydomain.com/good-words.html Google seems to have found them and changed the search engine results listing in about 8 days. But it's been about a month now and Moz and OSE still have not transferred all the strength and link data from the old URLs to the new ones. Question 1: How long does it usually take Google to transfer all the link and strength data for a 301? Question 2: How long does it take Moz and OSE to do the same? Is there something I need to do to tell them about the changes?
