Google disavow tool ( how long does it take ? )
-
Hello,
I disavowed some of my links about three months but still see them in my link profile, using OSE?
How long does it take for Google to make them nofollow.
Thanks
-
is any body tell me the how we know we are improving
my spam score is 5
so i created a disavow file and upload on google. but i don't know what would be the next step
-
I've seen this video before, my website was effected by Penguin 2.0 (not manual penalty) while Google says nofollow links won't hurt but it seems otherwise.
-
Then I believe you may have to wait a month or so for the next refresh to see any major improvement.

It was a penguin penalty
-
There is a good video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QSEqypgIJME
Matt Cutts basically says nofollow links won't hurt, but if you spam lots then they may make a manual penalty. Would be worth checking webmaster tools to see if this is the case, otherwise I doubt you needed to worry.

Thanks Keri,
Most of my links that i disavowed are blog comments and they are all nofollow links
so do nofollow links hurt my website?
Thanks
-
Most of the links that i submitted are nofollow links so maybe thats the case since Google
ignores them from I've read.

Disavowing links to Google isn't going to affect your OSE report. Moz doesn't have a way of seeing what you've told Google, so we have no way to know which links you've disavowed.
I believe it's internally Google will treat those links as nofollow, but they cannot physically modify the code on the linking site, so those links won't be marked nofollow for OSE and other crawlers.
I hope this helps some?

I was under the impression that if you are hit with say penguin penalty then you would also have to wait until the next refresh. Also if you have a manual penalty you will have to make a reconsideration request i believe.
If I am wrong, hopefully someone else can chime in.

From previous experience and from what I've read, it is usually in affect within days. At most 2 weeks.

Canonical error from Google
Moz couldn't explain this properly and I don't understand how to fix it. Google emailed this morning saying "Alternate page with proper canonical tag." Moz also kinda complains about the main URL and the main URL/index.html being duplicate. Of course they are. The main URL doesn't work without the index.html page. What am I missing? How can I fix this to eliminate this duplicate problem which to me isn't a problem?

Page missing from Google index
Hi all, One of our most important pages seems to be missing from the Google index. A number of our collections pages (e.g., http://perfectlinens.com/collections/size-king) are thin, so we've included a canonical reference in all of them to the main collection page (http://perfectlinens.com/collections/all). However, I don't see the main collection page in any Google search result. When I search using "info:http://perfectlinens.com/collections/all", the page displayed is our homepage. Why is this happening? The main collection page has a rel=canonical reference to itself (auto-generated by Shopify so I can't control that). Thanks! WUKeBVB

Google Webmaster Tools - content keywords containing spam?
Hi all, When I looked in Google Webmaster Tools today I found under the menu Google Index, Content Keywords, that the list is full of spammy keywords (E.g. Viagra (no. 1) and stuff like that) Around april we built a whole new website, uploaded a new xml-sitemap, and did all the other things Google Webmaster Tools suggest when one is creating a Google Webmaster Account. Under the menu "Security Issues" nothing is mentioned. All together I find it har d to believe that the site is hacked - so WHY is Google finding these content keywords on our site?? Should I fear that this will harm my SEO efforts? Best regards, Christian

How long does it take to reindex the website
Generally speaking, how long does it take for Google to recrawl/reindex an (ecommerce) website? After changing a number of product subcategories from 'noindex' back to 'index', I regenerated the sitemap and have fetched as Google in WMT. This was a couple of weeks ago and no action yet. Second question: Does Google treat these pages as if they're brand new? I 'noindexed' them back in April, and they were ranking ok then. (I had noindexed them on the back of advice from my SEO, due to concerns about these pages being seen as duplicate content). Help!

Should I Use the Disavow Tool to for a Spammy Site/Landing Page?
Here's the situation... There's a site that is linking to about 6 articles of mine from about 225 pages of theirs (according to info in GWT). These pages are sales landing pages looking to sell their product. The pages are pretty much identical but have different urls. (I actually have a few sites doing this to me.) Here's where I think it's real bad -- when they are linking to me you don't see the link on the page, you have to view the page source and search for my site's url. I'm thinking having a hidden url, and it being my article that's hidden, has got to be bad. That on top of it being a sales page for a product I've seen traffic to my site dropping but I don't have a warning in GWT. These aren't links that I've placed or asked for in any way. I don't see how they could be good for me and I've already done what I could to email the site to remove the links (I didn't think it would work but thought I'd at least try). I totally understand that the site linking to me may not have any affect on my current traffic. So should I use the Disavow tool to make sure this site isn't counting against me?

Google Published Date - Does Google Lie?
Here's the scenario. I create a page called "ABC" and it gets published and found by Google lets say on the 13th of April. on the 15th (or 14th) i decide to update the URL, page Title, and content. (Redirect old URL to new URL as well) Will Google still show this page as being published on the 13th? or would it update the publish date according to the new URL?
