Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Tried using http://www.opensiteexplorer.org/? It has inbound linking functionality.

Alternatively, I'm not entirely sure if this will work, but try going to Google and putting in:

allintext:example.com/page OR intext:example.com

I tried this to find who was linking to our old domain and managed to find a fair few results. If your client ONLY has the home page now, I'm assuming any other page would be "broken"?

Hope that helps!

Thanks for your response!

We only disavowed the bad links yesterday not afew months ago, however, none of these links where here last time we checked which was afew months ago.  These links are still appearing on Google Console however, it hasn't been 48 hours.

Many of them are linking to websites that seem to be down, however some are actual porn/spam sites. We're very concerned as this has happened the week of Black Friday and we are scratching our heads looking for a fast solution.

** So the questions are;**

_**1. While we understand we need to wait 48 hours for these links to be disavowed, how long after they are disavowed would it take to have the our website reappearing on Google again?

2. What else can we do to speed up recovery penalty from unwanted nasty backlinks? **_

Following on from a previous problem of 2 of our main pages completely dropping from index, we have discovered that 150+ spam, porn domains have been directed at our pages (sometime in the last 3-4 months, don't have an exact date).

Does anyone have exerpeince on how long it may take Google to take noticed of a new disavow list? Any estimates would be very helpful in determining our next course of action.
