Feedback on Link Removal Services
-
Hi Guys,
Not looking for a debate on whether or not to use link removal services (linkdelete.com, deletebacklinks.com etc), I'm just interested in hearing any feedback you may have after having used one.
What was your experience with the service?
Do you believe it helped you recover from a penalty?
Cheers.

Hi David,
Any update for us? I'm looking to outsource as well since time is just not worth it to most clients, or they are just reluctant.
-
I'm in contact with a site that is trialing one of these services, will do an update once I have an idea of the results.

Hi Broadbeach Media,
Nice to hear that people were recommending RMOOV - just a quick update - the free trial option is now Free Basic membership, which is 1 Campaign at a time. Some SEOmoz TAGFEE rubbed off!

Even I want to know the final view Is it good to use them? Do you think Deleting links will create negative impact on google for trust and authority? If my site is already in penalty and I will delete few links, will they think that they have taken a right decision by removing us from top results? Well, lots of things coming in my mind!

I guess you didn't read my first sentence
I am fully aware of the irony paying to remove links from crappy sites that were paid to be placed. But again, just looking to see if anyone has any specific experience with such a service.
Why? Because when people approach me after being penalized for having a rubbish link profile and I can tell that they can't/won't pay for my time to manually undo the harm (quite time consuming I'm sure you're aware), it would be nice to be able offer them an alternative. If, however, those services are not legit, or up to scratch, of course I wouldn't send people their way.
Thx

Would people actually use those?
I would immediately dismiss them as being the parasitic version of directory-submissions-gurus.com in terms of trustworthyness

Thanks for the info.
In this case I'm more looking for feedback on outsourcing the entire process to a service such as linkdelete.
The reason is, when a small business with very limited budgets needs their link profile cleaned up, (and can't handle it in-house) the only cost efficient solution I can think of is to outsource it.
Cheers.

Hi David,
If there are way to many bad links to remove, it is probably a good choice to invest in a link removal service (can save time and money). I myself haven't had any need to use one, but recently at an SEO conference we were advised by specialists to use an online tool named RMOOV (http://www.rmoov.com/) which they recommended if you have some link cleaning to do. There is a free option as well to give it a shot with 1 campaign.
Regards

GWT Lists URLs with links to my site, but those URLs don't have links to my site
There are a number of URLs that show up for my website in Webmaster Tools as having links to my site when in fact they don't. I know this to be a fact because I actually wrote some of the sites that Google is saying are linking to my site and I know there isn't any links on the specific pages to that site. For example, the site in question is: https://www.liftproducts.com/ As an example, Google is saying that about 100 URLs from https://www.lift-tables.net/ are linking to it when, I'm fairly confident that there is only 1 link to it found here: https://www.lift-tables.net/info.php?countrytabs=3 Yet Google says links exist on this (and many more) page: https://www.lift-tables.net/liftproducts/max-lift/lpt4w-030-48.php I thought at first it might have been due to linking to a image file directly instead of locally hosting it, but after checking the source, that's not the case. I am also seeing this type of non-linking being reported on sites I have no clue what they are. For example, some Spanish site about tandem bicycles is being listed as linking to liftproducts.com: http://206-225-85-34.dedicated.abac.net/tandem/inc Yet I can find no evidence of an actual link existing. Am I missing something here? Any insight of why this is happening and how I can clean up my link signature would be appreciated.

Link removel
When removing links should I be worried about bad links from websites that have already been deindexd from Google or should I think that since it is not in these index any more it cant do harm?

Finding links online that already exist as link juice based on search results
I'm curious about this, I can't find anything on the net that talks about it. I wrote an article about it on squidoo and have had no responses so I am thinking this is very rare subject. The question is I have done some backlink research with my competitors with linkdetective.com and found many links (even follow ones) related to sites that provide search results. Here are a link about what I am talking about as an example, I have found many more besides this one. http://search.lphant.com/es/webResults.html?q=free%20scrabble%20dictionary&hl=en&page=1&src=hmp_es&ref=1 My site appears in those results. When looking at the source there is no "nofollow". I found this page because linkdetective.com had this link listed pointing to my competitor. Are these valid backlinks? What I have been doing is adding these links to http://www.google.com/addurl so that Google knows about them. Is there something I am missing or are these valid?

"gimme links" = easy to fill out profile/personal reputation links that offer a do-follow anchor text flexible link
I'm doing some SEO for small niche service sites...and aside from niche directories and some light article marketing and local search directories (yelp, etc) there really isn't a budget for content generation. I really only have a budget for profile/submission links. What are some sites where you can quite easily fill out a personal profile with an anchor text variable link that may not be THAT juicy but will stick (i.e. not a spam/fake profile type of link, but something like Linkedin). I'll start with giving away 1 www.istockphoto.com Any others that aren't obvious?

Many competitor's backlinks are in content anchor links. Ho do I get these same links?
Hi I managed to open up OSE. I'm finding that much of the competition's backlinks are in content anchor text links. Am I supposed to get backlinks from these same pages using the same anchor text but linking back to my page or is that allowed? If so, how do I get these in content blog post links? Thanks. Sunil.
