What is a good tool for managing backlinks?
-
We have several that are not relevant and I need to manage the task of writing each to ask to remove.
-
You can use Ahrefs and monitor new and lost backlinks easy. Although it's not 100% perfect, still good.

I don’t think managing and removing backlinks is easy and anyone tool will do all the stuff, what I really believe is that you have to play around with multiple tools here.
- Google Webmaster Tool (it will give you a initial insight of your links)
- Open Site Explorer (this will give you a little more data of the links that points back to your website.)
- Majestic SEO (it contain the largest index and contain all the links that are pointing back to you)
These tools will help you collect all the link data, once you have these you can use tools like Link Risk and Link Detox (I personally used Link Detox)
Manage all the links at one place, remove duplicates and include that in link detox and it will separate the bad links, suspected links and good links. Once you have the data you can start removing the links manually or using a tool like remove'em.
Again, Fede is right, you have to look in to the links manually as sometimes these tools comes up with the absolutely wrong information and your best links can also get disavowed.
Hope this helps!

Hello,
One of the tools that I have used for back links is called SEO Spyglass a program that's part of the SEO Powersuite. The program is pretty accurate and offers unlimited use but can be slow at times.
Moz Pro also offers a variety of great tools like Open Site Explorer that allows you to retrieve and view back link data. The results were near identical to SEO Spyglass but Moz allows for instant results versus waiting for two hours of software running in the background.
I have also heard of Raven tools and Majestic SEO but have not used those tools personally.
Using any of these tools, you can export the acquired data into an xml file or excel file and then manage your back links using any spreadsheet software.
I personally use Microsoft Office 2013 but may also choose to use tools like Numbers for Mac, Google Spreadsheet, or open office.
Hope this helps.

There are several tools that can help you, such as linkdetox, remove'em, etc. However, it is always recommended to go over the links manually. As only you know the real value of a earned link.

Good idea? bad idea?
Hi guys there's a campaign (which I am very passionate about) to save our village pub from being developed. Now I have bought a domain name www dot SaveTheRoyalOak dot com I've forwarded this domain to sussexchef.com/save-the-royal-oak I'm using forward masking so the url remains save the royal oak, I will contain the few pages to do with the pub so that the navigation bars are hidden so the site will pretty much look be it's own entity to the user. this micro site will get hundreds of users and people linking to it, My question is will this hurt my site at all? I'm guessing that when I ask people to link to it I should get them to "no follow" it to be on the safe side? Thanks for your help All the best Ben

Adding Quality Backlinks
Without sounding like an idiot, what are the best ways in adding good quality back links. There are websites out there such as Click Submit but from experience they just link from weird URL's and the links are in comments. In an ideal world starting up my own Blogs and building up a good domain authority would work best but the customer would like some back links adding by next week. Using local directories wouldn't really work for their business so if anyone has any idea's I would love to hear them.

Finding a good guest posting service
I'm looking for any recommendations for a high-quality guest posting service that isn't posting to placing articles on their own network of websites, but instead has relationships with blog owners who will take good quality guest posts. And I'm willing to pay up for high-quality sites. Thanks for any suggestions, including suggestions on how to find these services if you don't want to say any names.

Backlinks on Facebook
Has anyone seen the benefits of adding backlinks back to their main site on their facebook page? Also, what about uploading a bunch of pictures of your products onto facebook, and on each picture putting the link directly to that specific product? Anyone know if there is any benefit in doing this? Thanks...
