Website has a barrage of comment backlinks from 2011
-
When Google rolled out Panda and Penguin, I assume these links have been discounted and any site punishment has already happened. The website is performing well, however, just recently these comment backlinks have started popping up again as "new" backlinks on Ahrefs. Being "newly-found", will this have a negative impact on the website? Should we be worried about these and start disavowing or is it OK to ignore them? Thanks.

Yes, thank you very much!

Great article, thanks for sharing!

Those comment links are almost certainly already no-followed, Nikki. So not much point in worrying about disavow at this point.
Also - the fact that AHREF seems to be rediscovering them just means their own crawler data may have changed. Doesn't likely reflect any change in Google's awareness and understanding of those links.
Hope that helps?

I just read an article that had a good strategy for deciding whether or not to disavow by Amanda DiSilvestro. I thought it was pretty on point:

Backlinks from ads on parked domains? Is this possible?
Hello Moz Friends, So as I was researching some competitive backlinks and I noticed a lot of backlinks that a clients competitor has are on parked domains and they appear to be google ads from some point. You know the pages that this page no longer exists, or hey do you want to buy this domain? and it has like 6 google ads on it? Yep those pages. My clients industry is construction and their competitor has links from zombie websites, foreign, websites and more. But the links are no longer on the page. Like when it was crawled, their ad was showing. Does this make any sense and is it usually temporary? Thank you for your thoughts friends!

Blog commenting
I have been doing a little bit of testing in regards to blog commenting on high authority blogs that no follow comments. The comments have all been manual and added value to the blog. I have noticed quite a big jump in rankings for some keywords. I was wondering if anyone else has a view on the effectiveness of these links when combined with other link building methods?
