Knowing that pointing links to your website with only your targeted term is toxic how on earth do you defend against a third party site pointing a link to your site using the very term you dont want to over do.
Put another way... imagine you have a site ranking well for say target term "cordless drills". You then notice multiple sites who you have zero control over has pointed links to your site using that target term. So my question is...
"How do you block an incoming link if the site administaror doesnt head your cries to take out the targeted pharse in the link"
Any insights welcome

The eternal problem of an online marketer and I have faced this problem countless times. Quite true we have zero control over them and the good news is that Google will not pay any heed to you. Usually what Google says is that if you have not built those links, you do not need to care about them but at the same time, they also say that if you believe that these links are causing you harm, you can use Disavow Links option to make Google aware of the fact that you do not trust those links coming from those sites.
_So, it is a tough game. But as you said that the links are coming with exact anchor text, I would recommend you checking the quality of the links because you may never know that these may be actually [I know you are good at it] adding value to your website. Once you are confirmed that the links are spammy, go ahead and give the Disavow Link a go. _

Building my Portfolio of 70 MicroNiche Sites (10-15 Pages of Content)
Hello Moz Community, I just bought 70 new domains in the past month in different niches with exact match domains, installing these sites on 2 different hostgator servers, installing all the plugins needed etc. and start publishing first 10 articles on each site. ( the keyword research was done with long tail pro and choosing the best long tails with MOZ difficulty grader that is under 40-45.) My question is the following: If I will have some of these sites that will don’t rank in Google in the next 3-6 months for the main keyword without building links…what will be the best course/method/resources I need to know about building quality backlinks and having the time to do these tasks on each website to be sure that every site will be a winner, or even 50-70% of them in both traffic & money ROI !?! I want to have a minimum of 10 sites that will make around 150$ per month because my Intention is to sell these sites on flippa for higher multiples of 15-20 monthly revenue. ( I sold my first website on flippa in September for 1650$ and is awesome. I want to repeat this success at a higher level ) Thank you ! I built niche sites since February 2012 but in terms of building backlinks to microniche sites I didn’t do too many things in the past when is about backlinking (just submitting in directories) so I ask about the experience of this community. Which are the best methods to build links in 2013 J Best regards, Sebastian Papp & His Team
