Hi all,

I need some suggestion over here whether if I should disavow my backlinks.

I gotten a SEO report from Majestic, regards to the quality of my backlinks.
I have about 1000 external backlinks only 100 is indexed url.

my website has many wiki backlinks as well as low quality links as seen by the reports by majestic.

Should I disavow the backlinks to improve the rank and build up on quality backlinks or should i continue building more normal quality backlinks, past 3 months, those wiki links, normal quality backlinks has yet to improve my keywords which are stuck in page 1/2.
I tried getting the webmaster to remove the links however, i just can't find the webmaster contacts or most of them did not reply me either.

I appreciate if anyone could advise me on the above.

    You do not necessarily need to disavow the backlinks until WMT report looks ok. I suggest you to stop creating low-quality links. Concentrate on building high-quality relevant links. I do Guest Posting on high authority blogs that help me improve rankings of my competitive keywords.

    The disavow tool is just a brilliant marketing strategy of Google. It actually will hurt you more if you report them. Best just to keep chugging forward building quality links and don't worry about the rest.

    If bad links were a real threat then every negative so attack would be successful. It just doesn't work that way, as Google knows it will open up abusers to spamming their rivals in the search engines.

    Hello there frostifyyfrostifyy

    Backlink is very important in SEO, it can either make or break the site and its ranking. If you have low pr backlinks you need to delete them.

    Focus more on high pr backlinks, as we all know google has been very strict now a days.
    Focus on quality rather than quantity, its better to have 1 high pr back link than to have 50 low pr back link.

    Thanks
