  • Daniel Dutton: No need to disavow in 99.9% of cases. Just ignore them, they won`t do any harm.

  • Rehne Bomholt Petersen: HI Daniel Dutton Thanks for the reply.Thanks, Then I would leave it

  • Ammon Johns: If you are uncomfortable with those links then by all means disavow them for peace of mind, but it is extremely unlikely to have any positive effect on your rankings.

    If you suspect those backlinks, especially all the gambling related ones, were built by someone trying to get backlinks for the site, and represent a flawed but deliberate intent to manipulate link popularity algorithms, then a disavow certainly won`t do any harm.

    However, so long as you have even a modicum of genuine and authentic citations, pages that have linked to your pages because they are useful and earned the citation, then those less desirable links you listed really won`t have much of an effect of any kind.

    The best and most foolproof method to improve a backlink profile is to gain more good, genuine links, especially if those are gained by your content, not by outreach and requests.

  • Rehne Bomholt Petersen: Hi Ammon Johns Thanks for getting back. ok, then I will only disavaw the ones with virus warnings comming up after clikking. Link building is a difficuelt task. And we have dropped a lot this year in organic traffic. I am not sure if I can gain this traffic back again.

  • Ammon Johns: Rehne Bomholt Petersen link building shouldn`t be that hard once you find the right approach. It can be time intensive, but it is not hard.

    For the links that have the most value, the approach is *always* to build content specifically designed to attract links, get citations, be shared.

    The professional level is to attract very specific links, profiling one particular source you`d like a link from, studying hard what they tend to like to link to, and then building the article they cannot resist.

  • Rehne Bomholt Petersen: Ammon Johns My wrighting skills are super bad. But I must find someone who can make content.

  • Ammon Johns: Rehne Bomholt Petersen there are many forms of content that don`t depend on writing. Images, video, audio, programs that process data, etc. What matters for getting links is that you create something "remarkable", because links are literally how people say "Wow, look at this!".

    There is always a way to turn a skill you have into something remarkable and link-worthy. Finding that way may not be as simple, but the way always exists.
