When does Google Webmaster update your links to site??
-
Hi everyone
We removed a load of links from a site over 2 months ago but they still show in Google webmaster tools.
I understand Google will not be reading this links as they were removed so long ago. However I just was interested when Google might update these as not showing as linking to us anymore.
I like to try and keep things tidy and its a bit frustrating it would be good to be 100% sure what Google is counting at any given time.
Cheers
James

Yes they still take but by disavow links you would be on safer side that why I prefer it.

When you are using disavow does it update your webmaster quicker or do they show on webmaster for some time still?

Hi James, Google has to index those pages again to remove your link which will going to take too much. Then after "Link to your site" data also takes time in removing links so I prefer to "disavow those links" as well by using Google webmaster tool.

Decent SERP site sending 1000's of links to your website?
I've spent most of this summer trying to clean up my link profile, most links I've never requested myself, they just appear. Here's a question, www.allworldlinks.com appear to have a decent page authority but they are bombarding my site with hundreds of links, I now have over 12,000 from them. This is not good I guess?

30,746 Links from One Site to Our Site
I learned this morning in our Google Webmaster Account about a website has 30,746 links to our website. Both our website and their site present information related to plastic materials, so in essence they complement one another. However, is having that massive amount of links from one site to ours a bad thing and should we use Google Disavow? Also, they have a PR3 while our site is PR5 (not sure if that matters much).

First 100 links for every new site?
Is there a rule of thumb I am unaware of or a place that others start to get links for every new site they create, something like the "first 100 links for every new site" regardless of content? I know you always start building links around what the content of your site is about, but does anyone have a rule of thumb that you always start with links from certain sites regardless of the site content. For example for a local company: Google Places, Bing Local, Linkedin, Facebook, Localeze etc. etc. I just want to make sure I am taking quality first steps for every site I start and was wondering if anyone could give me some good rules of thumb or resources.
