How To Fix Your Old Negative SEO Link Portfolio
- SEO |
If your website is still being penalized for some old spammy backlinks you bought from fiverr a year ago you should try this guide to maybe get your website ranked back to where it was or atleast un penalized.
1) Locate links to your site on dead, irrelevant or spam sites and use the Google Disavow Links tool to get rid of their negative influence on your SEO.
2) Look for signs of a Negative SEO attack and similarly disavow any such links. While it's questionable whether Negative SEO is effective, it can't hurt to remove such links from the calculations.
3) Look for old links you paid for and request they be changed to NoFollow, if they aren't already. Google sometimes assigns a penalty to sites lined on known link sellers, so paying for links can hurt you. Setting those links to NoFollow - or disavowing them - gets them away from a healthy link profile.
Now this may or may not work but it's worth a try. There have been a few success stories about using this tool.
Thanks and goodluck
