Feedback on Link Removal Services
-
Hi Guys,
Not looking for a debate on whether or not to use link removal services (linkdelete.com, deletebacklinks.com etc), I'm just interested in hearing any feedback you may have after having used one.
What was your experience with the service?
Do you believe it helped you recover from a penalty?
Cheers.

Hi David,
Any update for us? I'm looking to outsource as well since time is just not worth it to most clients, or they are just reluctant.
-
I'm in contact with a site that is trialing one of these services, will do an update once I have an idea of the results.

Hi Broadbeach Media,
Nice to hear that people were recommending RMOOV - just a quick update - the free trial option is now Free Basic membership, which is 1 Campaign at a time. Some SEOmoz TAGFEE rubbed off!

Even I want to know the final view
Is it good to use them? Do you think Deleting links will create negative impact on google for trust and authority? If my site is already in penalty and I will delete few links, will they think that they have taken a right decision by removing us from top results? Well, lots of things coming in my mind!

I guess you didn't read my first sentence
I am fully aware of the irony paying to remove links from crappy sites that were paid to be placed. But again, just looking to see if anyone has any specific experience with such a service.
Why? Because when people approach me after being penalized for having a rubbish link profile and I can tell that they can't/won't pay for my time to manually undo the harm (quite time consuming I'm sure you're aware), it would be nice to be able offer them an alternative. If, however, those services are not legit, or up to scratch, of course I wouldn't send people their way.
Thx

Would people actually use those?
I would immediately dismiss them as being the parasitic version of directory-submissions-gurus.com in terms of trustworthyness

Thanks for the info.
In this case I'm more looking for feedback on outsourcing the entire process to a service such as linkdelete.
The reason is, when a small business with very limited budgets needs their link profile cleaned up, (and can't handle it in-house) the only cost efficient solution I can think of is to outsource it.
Cheers.

Hi David,
If there are way to many bad links to remove, it is probably a good choice to invest in a link removal service (can save time and money). I myself haven't had any need to use one, but recently at an SEO conference we were advised by specialists to use an online tool named RMOOV (http://www.rmoov.com/) which they recommended if you have some link cleaning to do. There is a free option as well to give it a shot with 1 campaign.
Regards

Disavow links from legit sites but have spammy link profiles?
I'm currently doing a backlink audit for our site with a LOT of backlinks. Some of the linking sites are legitimate business websites in our industry who have linked to us for a totally legitimate reason (we have good content!). However, these businesses themselves have a spammy backlink profile—that is, the only sites linking to that site are obvious link farm sites. Here is an illustration: spammyseolinks.com; payforseo.xyz; blackhat.ru ==all link to==> legitbusiness.com ==links to==> mysite.com Should I disavow this backlink? I guess it's not really giving me much SEO worth since it surely been branded a spammy junk domain, but then again, it's a real website that we've earned a link from because we're doing stuff the right way. Is it hurting or helping me?

Internal Linking - Post links vs Side Bar Links behaving differently
Hi, I have a question regarding the internal linking behavior. My website is www.hindimeaning.com which is approx 3 years old. I have approx 450 posts. Now i have a widget on right sidebar "Popular posts". A widget below my posts "Related Posts". And a simple html CSS menu above the posts (I removed menu around 6 month before so currently it will not show.) I crawled my site with moz crawler (same are the result from google crawler as well) and it shows menus links as internal links. While sidebar widget "Popular posts" and "Related Posts" are not showing as internal links. If we talk theoretically what i learn till now is "every link on a page behaves as internal link". Then why the widget links are not showing as internal links. Thanks, Mahesh Kumar

Internal links
It can be bad for the site if I use various items to create links to a page that represents a specific keyword? The articles are relevant and anchor text is not only done on the keyword, but also by using words near the keyword in question.

Link Building Strategy - Please Give Feedback
Hi, I"m moving forward with link building for nlpca(dot)com and here's my plan I know my industry, keywords, and this site very well so I'll start by: Analyze Top content for top 10 competitors and see where the links are currently going. I'm assuming a competitor is someone similar to me and not sites like wikipedia in this case Make a spreadsheet for all of the worthwhile links that I find by using OSE and the top 10 competitors, places where if we're good enough we can get a link on that page. See what they're linking to Use (1) and (2) to discover what stelllar targeted content to build Use infographics, a blog, and articles to build targeted content to request a link from the people in (2) building out facebook, twitter, and Google +1 for the site is coming too. Your thoughts? I'm completely open to improvements via feedback.

Link building
I have two separate websites on different servers and was wondering that since reciprocal links effectively eliminate each other, I'm curious if this link strategy will keep the links counting. Here's the strategy: I will have someone link to my site A and if i link to their site from my site B in a three way link strategy, will the links count even though both my site A and B have me listed as the Whois so Google knows that both sites are owned by me? Or will the links be discounted as reciprocal? Thanks in advance for your feedback! Take care, Ron

The link was discovered on 03.05.11 and when I visited today link is not there... I dont know who put that link there. Can I get penalty for that from google? Can it be a mistake?
