Preemptive Use of Googl’es Disavow Tool

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Apr 12.2013

For general directories that we never asked to be listed on… is it a good idea to use the disavow tool for these types of links even if we haven’t received any kind of penalty from Google?

The author of this article ([url]http://searchenginewatch.com/article/2260344/Racing-Penguin-How-to-Attack-Unnatural-Links-Before-Penguin-Hits-Case-Study[/url]) seems to think so… assuming your efforts to remove the link fail.

@StevieNYCMay 07.2013 — I would never use it if you haven't got a penalty. My gut feeling is Google knows about those auto-scraper sites way more it does about link networks (which could be something to worry about).

By the way, here is a nice post about how to tell if you need to use the disavow tool at all http://www.link-assistant.com/blog/the-professional-link-audit-before-disavow/

Success!
