Forwarding a domain seems to be creating 10,720 backlinks according to majestic?
-
I have a site toptwincitiesrealtors.com that points to my main site mnpropertygroup.com when I look up my backlinks on majestic it says I have 10,720 coming from this toptwincitiesrealtors.com site. should I stop pointing that site? I have a low trust flow but high citation flow on my mnpropertygroup.com site and a 0 trust flow and 5 citation flow on my toptwincitiesrealtors.com site

If toptwincitiesrealtors.com has a good authority/backlink profile, it will help mnpropertygroup.com rank.
If toptwincitiesrealtors.com is penalized, it may pass along that penalty.

Any harm in no longer forwarding this site and just using it as another site for lead gen?

"or majestic is counting each redirected page on the old toptwincitiesrealtors.com site as a backlink"
That is what I would guess is happening, I believe the same happens in Google Search Console when you do the same thing.

Looks like you are redirecting toptwincitiesrealtors.com to your main site. This would pass along all backlinks to the main site. (Either that, or majestic is counting each redirected page on the old toptwincitiesrealtors.com site as a backlink).
In either case, where does toptwincitiesrealtors.com get its backlinks from? If its from other quality, niche relevant sites, having it redirect is fine.

Backlinks From Press Releases - Should I Disavow Them?
About 2 months ago, I published a press release through PRWEB with a link back to my website of course. Now it must have been one of those morning where the coffee wasn't strong enough as my website already has a Penguin penalty I'm trying to get lifted. The intent wasn't to spam the web but rather to gain some traction in the business hosting world. Like I've said, the coffee must've been too weak that morning as it didn't even cross my mind to see if I could "nofollow" the links in the press release. I just hit the submit button... As I'm in the process of submitting a disavow links request to Google, I'm wondering if I should include the URLs to copies of those press releases? I mean, there's no way I can find all those links as it was submitted not long ago. Google and link tools will keep discovering other copies of the PR for months to come probably.

Backlinking post penguin
Does anyone have any effective strategies about how to backlink for a new website. I'm just really cautious of this new penguin update and don't want to submit to too many directories or do anything that will get penalised, seen as the website is new.

Backlinks from Trade Website - Are they worth it?
Hi I am doing some linking building for a niche and slightly dull industry. I have found that trade magazine want a lot of money to publish press releases with back links. The publications are relevant to my industry but have a low page rank on Google. Is it still worth paying for these links? Thanks David

Penguin and Backlinks
I have been looking closely at my backlinks. I readily admin that I have not worked on backlinks in years since for e-commerce there is little white hat opportunity but here is what I find in doing a detailed analysis. I mostly have back links that are pointing to our nicely ranked site (well it use to be pre-penguin) being hyjacked by crappy sites that just put us on the their site in order to try and rank. I have no way to prevent this. They are like a cancer. Point me to the Doctor. Is Goggle penalizing us for these guys listing us in long pages list to create pages that obviously exist for one reason...... To display Adword Ads....isn't that a twist that simply sucks for use but has Google making money either way. If they want to penalize us for them stealing our link then we should get a say in accepting the link. Advice on dealing with this? Do I have to hire someone to create enough good links to overcome this trash that I have no control over ? Perhaps my competitors are doing this. I simply can't tell. Any advice is appriciated.
