Hello i have been hit for external links
-
Hello my web has been hit for external links maybe because of the work of SEO consultants y had before.
The web name is http://www.propdental.com
Some seo consultants will try to use the disalow tools on webmaster tools
other recomends to do another web with the content wich is very rich and start over again with a new domain
I would like to know what is your opinion
thank you very much

Do what Irving said, park the domain just in case you need it.
Use opensiteexplorer.org to get a clear picture of your backlinkprofile and start cleaning up suspicious and bad links that point to your site: http://www.opensiteexplorer.org/links?page=1&site=www.propdental.com&sort=page_authority&filter=&source=external&target=page&group=0
Look at the domain and page authorities of the page linking to you, look at the title of the page, look at the link anchor text or image their using. Don't like what you see? Add them to the Google Disavow Tool
You could also always contact the webmaster of the site pointing/linking to your website and kindly ask them to remove the link or adjust the link (sometimes adjusting the anchor text is enough).
This should help you on your way back to a healthy backlink profile.
Offcourse besides cleaning up the backlinks, gain some new ones and prehaps do some guestposting or something to influence things more positively.
Hopes this helps you a bit.
kind regards

I would work on cleaning up the existing site first.You have to make a sincere effort at removing links before using the disavow tool.
Might be a good idea to grab a new domain and park it now so it begins aging in case you are unsuccessful at unwinding the penalty.

Increase in spammy links from image gallery websites i.e. myimagecollection.net
Hi there I've recently noticed a lot of spammy links coming from image gallery sites that all look the same, i.e.: http://mypixlibrary.co/ http://hdimagegallery.net/ http://myimagecollection.net/ http://pixhder.com/ Has anyone else seen links from these? They have no contact details, not sure if they are some form of negative SEO or site spam. Any ideas how to get rid? Thanks

Getting Back Links When I Cannot Add Outbound Links to My Site
I have a collection of websites that I do not control in terms of content or page creation/editing. As a result, I have no way to add links to outside sites on any existing or new pages. Given this, how can I go about finding and requesting other sites link back to our sites/pages if I cannot offer them a link to their site in return? I know that content is a link driver, but I do not control the content, so I cannot develop new content to help drive links. I appreciate any help/advice any experts can provide.

Are back links from audio sites any good?
In light of G's view of links from directories and other sources I have heard that links for audio sites like soundcloud.com can be beneficial. Has anyone had any positive experiences building likes from sources like this?

Spammy Links (from .ru) pointing to my domain! How to deal with it?
Hi all, We run an e-commerce store - I am just looking at the apache logs and I am finding a lot of spammy links that have been referrers to our pages - when I check the links, I cannot find our URL in an HREF on their page so I presume they may be using some country based cloaking? These are the domains that are targeting specific pages on our site:

Guest Post Blogging And Exchanging Links
Hi, I hope you are all well. Would there be any problem with exchanging a guest blog, so two websites doing a guest post for each other and both sites linking back to each other. I don't think this would be an issue on a small scale though I just wanted to see what everyone else thought. Are there any other things I should bear in mind when doing this as well? Kind Regards

Product Reviews – Link Building Strategy
I own Simply Bags and have been sending sample bags to bloggers as a link building strategy. The following four links are a sample of recent product reviews. http://bit.ly/Mk6Z1t http://bit.ly/Mk6Smq http://bit.ly/Mk7atN http://bit.ly/Mk7wR8 Product reviews were considered a good link building strategy. After Panda & Penguin is Product Reviews still a good strategy? Please comment on the quality of the four sample links. Thanks

Partner Site Hit with Penguin - Links hurt me
I work for a network of international websites, the site I work on is for Canada. Our partners in Australia were hit by penguin hard because they hired a black hat SEO guy and didn't know. He was creating profiles on highly authoritative sites and keyword stuffing them. Now, they've completely dropped off the SERP. This is where the issue occurs, because we are all international partners we are all linked together on the header of every page so visitors can choose their country. Now, because they were hit hard and we have reciprocal links (not for rankings but for usability) will we be affected? It seems like we have, but I just want some opinions out there. Also, should we go ahead and stop linking our sites between countries to avoid this mess?

Client Selling Links On One Site Hurt Their Other Site?
Hi, I have a client who is thinking about selling ads on one site they own via something like textlinkads.com. Do you think they run any risk of exposing their other sites to scrutiny, penalties or problems?
