“Actively disavow and remove low quality links”
#SearchFest @rmoov @ShahMenz
“Be actively disavowing and removing the low quality
links that you find when doing link auditing. Even if you
don’t think you’ve been hit by Penguin...even if you don’t
have a manual penalty.
If you’ve got links that are clearly low quality, ones
where you look at them and you really know they’re not
good, try and remove them, try and disavow them ”
what
Paddy
said

identify a real problem
#SearchFest @rmoov @ShahMenz
create a real solution
#SearchFest @rmoov @ShahMenz
#SearchFest @rmoov @ShahMenz
