Google disavow tool ( how long does it take ? )
-
Hello,
I disavowed some of my links about three months but still see them in my link profile, using OSE?
How long does it take for Google to make them nofollow.
Thanks
-
is any body tell me the how we know we are improving
my spam score is 5
so i created a disavow file and upload on google. but i don't know what would be the next step
-
I've seen this video before, my website was effected by Penguin 2.0 (not manual penalty) while Google says nofollow links won't hurt but it seems otherwise.
-
Then I believe you may have to wait a month or so for the next refresh to see any major improvement.

It was a penguin penalty

There is a good video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QSEqypgIJME
Matt Cutts basically says nofollow links won't hurt, but if you spam lots then they may make a manual penalty. Would be worth checking webmaster tools to see if this is the case, otherwise I doubt you needed to worry.

Thanks Keri,
Most of my links that i disavowed are blog comments and they are all nofollow links
so do nofollow links hurt my website?
Thanks
-
Most of the links that i submitted are nofollow links so maybe thats the case since Google
ignores them from I've read.

Disavowing links to Google isn't going to affect your OSE report. Moz doesn't have a way of seeing what you've told Google, so we have no way to know which links you've disavowed.
I believe it's internally Google will treat those links as nofollow, but they cannot physically modify the code on the linking site, so those links won't be marked nofollow for OSE and other crawlers.
I hope this helps some?

I was under the impression that if you are hit with say penguin penalty then you would also have to wait until the next refresh. Also if you have a manual penalty you will have to make a reconsideration request i believe.
If I am wrong, hopefully someone else can chime in.

From previous experience and from what I've read, it is usually in affect within days. At most 2 weeks.

Google Webmaster Tools - content keywords containing spam?
Hi all, When I looked in Google Webmaster Tools today I found under the menu Google Index, Content Keywords, that the list is full of spammy keywords (E.g. Viagra (no. 1) and stuff like that) Around april we built a whole new website, uploaded a new xml-sitemap, and did all the other things Google Webmaster Tools suggest when one is creating a Google Webmaster Account. Under the menu "Security Issues" nothing is mentioned. All together I find it har d to believe that the site is hacked - so WHY is Google finding these content keywords on our site?? Should I fear that this will harm my SEO efforts? Best regards, Christian

Best Google Practice for Hacked SIte: Shift Servers/IP or Disavow?
Hi - Over the past few months, I've identified multiple sites which are linking into my site and creating fake pages (below is an example and there's over 500K+ of similar links from various sites}. I've attempted to contact the hosting companies, etc. with little success. Was wondering if my best course of action might be at this point: A) which servers (or IP address). B) Use the Google Disavow tool? C) both. example: { http://aryafar.com/crossings/200-krsn-team-part19.html } Thanks!!

Why are Google search results different if you are log'd into Google or not?
I get different results when I'm log'd into my Google account associated with my website than if I'm not. The same country is occurring. So how can I rely on the google results I'm seeing? For instance my site is page 1 with the improvements I made based on SEOMOZ if I'm log'd in. Yet I'm not on the first 25 pages if I'm not logged in.

Does Google Read Javascript?
I would like to include a list of links in a select type box which I would like google to follow. In order to do this, I will be styling it with the help of javascript, and in turn change the select box into a ul and the options into li's. The li's would each contain a link, but if javascript is disabled it will fallback to a normal css styled select box. My question is would google follow the links made by the javascript? Or would the bot just recognize the select box as a select box and not links. Thanks for any help!

Adding Google + to SEOmoz
I wanted to add my google + signature to every post I make on SEOmoz and I think every user should do the same... Two reasons why... Google helps our existence so we should help theirs. If someone likes what I wrote or vice versa we should be able to follow each other in a simple click. In my opinion all blogs forum posts etc... should Lead to a user not a website, this will prevent spam and help people network. In other words blog spammers and forum spammers will be SOL (Which they all ready are lol).
