How to Detect and Remove Negative Links to Your Website, Disavow Tool

The issue of who will talk on this occasion will allow us to not fall into the penalties that Google has prepared for those who practice unnatural SEO. And this type of SEO, also known as Black Hat SEO, can be good in the short term but very harmful if practiced without control.


That said; do not forget that we too can be victims of negative SEO done by, for example, our competition. That is why we will try to give two methods to detect links that are harmful and how to make Google not link us with them.


Disavow Tool


The method for detecting free back links


Note that this method we will talk about is not the most recommended because it is not 100% accurate. However, if we use a fairly reliable tool that is free, we can get the trial version of Traffic Travis and see all inbound links we have to our website.


How to eliminate inbound links


Once done, if we see that we are linking many pages of website that do not reach and with anchor text unnaturally, we think that somehow they are trying to damage our website with a barrage of links that will not make another thing to fall into the networks of Penguin.


The payment method for detecting links to your website


But if there are a couple of tools able to detect the quality of the vast majority of our inbound links that can help us to detect them in a very simple way, one of them is Link Research Tools.


Tool for locating external links Link Research Tools


A tool which incidentally has a value of one hundred Euros per month, but you can help us when automate these tasks.


How to detect and remove links to your website


This tool essentially does is check all our links and see the variety of anchor text and its source-level domain and IP. At the same time assessing the quality of the site in question and offers us a rating, in green, yellow and red, to indicate, in green, that link is good and red, we should get rid of it asap.


Another payment tool to know that links point to a website, Ahrefs


The other tool which I speak, which is now the one I use is called ahrefs. I personally love it, it is simple to use, I think it is not expensive for utilities that can be given, allows you comparing several web data as its authority links pointing, which are come from many different IPs, etc.., very important data if we see why a web of competition is above ours.


How to know which links point to my web


It has a free version limited to a number of links only, but we can try to get an idea.


How to disassociate these links up to Google? Disavow


Once we have reached this point and we have seen what are the links that are hurting us a remarkable way, we have no choice but to make these links do not point to our website. To do this, we may contact the webmaster or you have linked to us, too, can get in touch directly with Google if we want to rectify a bad link building strategy.


This amendment will do with the what the great search engine called ” disavow “. An application included within the webmaster tools of Google and that will allow us to eliminate the effect of those links.


In first place we have to access our “Webmaster tools“. Once inside we have to perform the following steps:


  • Click on the “option Search Traffic “

  • Click on the ” Links to your site “

  • Once inside of that section, we will go into ” With more links to your site “and click on the link” More information “.

  • The last step is to download everything so CSV

The next step, once you downloaded all the links, we take them to disavow itself. To do this you must follow these steps:


  • Enter page disavow links tool.

  • Click on the button that lets you banish the malicious links.

  • Finally you only upload the file you downloaded above, and Google already have the record you want to make layoffs.

Finally it must be remembered that we once made aware of Google such actions, for a time, will be in the spotlight for we check if we are a recidivist so not so we’ll have to think hard about what will be our next steps in the SEO. But not only that, we also need to know that the disallowance of the links we sent not occur immediately as it is a process that can take days or even weeks.
