@Alex_RevelInteractive I have the exact same issue. Sort of.
Our root domain is being index and crawled fine, but our support portal with forums at support.example.com is not being either indexed or crawled at all. It is just says "Error" in red in the Bing Webmaster console. Not one single clue to the reason/s why..

@Socialdom
You cannot block people from posting your links all over the internet.

@PeterHane
You need back links that are of high quality from trusted websites by users (and search engines), that link to you and pass their link juice. The less quality and spammy links the better as they can also negatively impact the Moz metrics too.

@viveklazy
Like the others say here in the thread..

That data you are looking at is not real time and is lagging so it might take awhile before you see it in the search console / Google Webmaster...
So you should not worry to much about it.

Yeah i read the same.
Backlinks from social platforms doesn't per see do much favor.
Here is a some links too about link building for newbees too: [https://support.shorturl.gg/business-marketing-and-seo-forums/discussions/seo-talks/link-building-seo/](link url) and the one where they talk about that Google might consider link building as spam is very interesting I'd think in my opinion.

In theory it might hurt you as they could consider non organic link building as a break of Google's TOS. Not sure how true it is but still its a bit interesting as it seems that they prefer that links are built only the organcic way and not through SEO practices.
