    Hi guys,

    I recently suffered a major negative seo attack against my site, with more than 380K spam backlinks using more than 5k domains.

    Because of this, I'm having serious problems tracking my site's statistics in GSC due to the limit of only 1000 query lines.

    Please, I need help on how I can get access to all these 5,000 domains in the search console so I can create a disavow list.

    Any tips on how to clean this up?

          Create a disavow file listing the spam domains and submit it via Google's Disavow Tool.
          Reach out to Google Support, explaining the severity, and request assistance in managing the large number of spam backlinks.

            Hey! I'm sorry to hear about the negative SEO attack on your site. Dealing with spam backlinks can be challenging, but it's crucial to take steps to protect your site's integrity. While Google Search Console has limitations, you can utilize the 'Disavow Links' tool to address harmful backlinks. To efficiently manage a large number of domains, consider breaking down the list into smaller chunks for submission. Additionally, seeking assistance from an SEO consultant can be valuable. They possess expertise in navigating such situations, providing guidance on disavow processes, and helping you regain control over your site's SEO health. Really hope this helps! Good luck!

                Should I Report A SEO Agency to Google

                spam backlink attack spam backlinks

                Our competitor has employed the services of a spammy SEO agency that sends spammy links to our site. Though our rankings were affected we have taken the necessary steps. It is possible to send evidence to Google so that they can take down the site. I want to take this action so that other sites will not be affected by them again.

                Unsolved DA dropping after spam attack

                moz pro da domain authority spam backlink attack spam backlinks

                Hello. Our DA has dropped from 40 to 28. Why does moz take into account clear spam links. Not all links are created by website owners. Popular websites also see a lot of unknown spam linking. Any solutions to over-ride these issues? It seems very futile to see the DA dropping without any apparent reason or help towards actionable data.

                Google not listing website correctly

                google listing seo website submission

                have a domain that was unused for a while and displayed the "parked by Gandi" domain message. Recently, I decided to set up a fully working website on that domain, but I'm struggling to get it to rank correctly on Google. Google isn't updating the http://domain.com to the correct https://www.domain.com, and I have tried everything. The http://domain.com redirects to https://www.domain.com if you click on it. I managed to get the correct version, https://www.domain.com, to show up, but after a couple of days, it reverted to the old version and has stayed that way. This has been going on for a few weeks now. Additionally, I had an old version of the site using .com, and I forwarded that to the .co.uk, but the old .com will not be removed from Google. it was just one page without much content. At the moment, Google's search results look very messy and out of date. I have submitted the URL in the Google Search Console using the URL inspection tool and requested indexing and reindexing. I have also submitted sitemaps, but nothing is really working. Any ideas?

                Google doesn't show my Twitter account

                google search ranking issue

                Hello, my full name is Timo Rossa and my Twitter (X) account is @TimoRossa. If I search for my name with "Timo Rossa" on Google, it doesn't find any results referencing my Twitter account. It is very important for me that Google does not only show Twitter results for my name but also that those results would be ranked at the top. The only reason I could come up with is that my account name has not separated words. Does this make sense? What would be a simple strategy to achieve my goal? Thank you!

                Unsolved Site showing up in Google search results for irrelevant keywords

                serp keyword rankings

                Hi there, one of my client's sites is showing up in Google search results / getting a lot of site traffic from keywords that while very close to words we're actually trying to target on the site, are irrelevant for the client and their site content. Does anyone have ideas of how to address this?
