Need advice on how to water down the effects of creating TOO many back links over a short period of time 3-4 months. Since October 22nd 2014 I watched my traffic drop and now even though I still (today) have some keywords working I'm dropping on first page daily. I was ranking first page google for 20+ keywords and now down to three and those are slipping as well for my site. The links were built to posts only not the front page.

There a lot of articles, posts and forums warning of over doing the links but not much on what to do after the fact.

Any suggestions short of disavowing links. What about adding generic links like Click here, more info, etc or building links to youtube, Foursquare, facebook, YP, PPC or other connecting sites???

Helpful suggestions requested and appreciated.

    If your links weren't built organically and aren't relevant to your sites content than more than likely Google Penguin has flagged your links as spam and is slowly dropping you from their rankings.About all you can really do is dump any links pointing towards your site that aren't relevant to your sites content and make sure you aren't keyword stuffing on your Meta titles and descriptions.Good Luck.

    There is no such thing as too many backlinks over too short a period of time.

    If you are having a problem with your backlinks, it is because they are low quality links.

    No blaster shield? No buffer site? A direct hit on your moneysite?

    Only get links with purpose should be allowed access into the inner sanctum.

      Fiverr isn't bad for Tier 1 and beyond. Just don't point that shotgun at your main site.

      As far as Fiverr goes...I can either use GSA Search Engine Ranker or SenukeXCr, pay the monthly fee and yada yada yada...put all that effort into Tier 1 and 2 backlinking, or I can pay someone $5 to do it...

      It's not rocket science. The only site you need to tiptoe around is your main one.

        Spoken like the next person to be hit by Penguin at the next update.

      Or any similar service, otherwise you're just creating a ticking time bomb.

    It depend on the quality of your links . You can add as many links you want if they are quality links.
