Suspect Links from Yeusaigon.net Causing Server Errors
-
Good morning,
Webmaster Tools is reporting an increase in server errors on our site due to some very suspect links from Yeusaigon.net. After taking a quick look, it appears they are some form of search engine attempting to link to our images by using incomplete URLs. For example:
http://yeusaigon.net/search/images.php?q=htc%20one%20max%20phone%20cases&page=1044
Is linking to:
http://www.mobilemadhouse.co.uk/caseflex-htc-one-max-real-leather-flip...
As this URL is incomplete, it's throwing up a server error. There are currently 139 instances of there errors from the same domain, and is increasing by around 5-10 per day. The domain, however, is linking to some of our pages/images correctly, but I fear Google may look at these as spammy links - they certainly look that way!
So, what can we do? I can't find any contact details on Yeusaigon website so I have disavowed the entire domain. Is this the right thing to do? How do I stop the ever-increasing number of sever errors due to incorrect URLs?
Cheers,
Lewis

I would definitely try that link. There's always a google help line as well to consider. Let me know how that link works out for you.

Hello,
Thanks for your reply!
So, as these links clearly look spammy and they keep on coming, I need to report the site to Google? How do I do this?

I found the above WMT page, should I just submit it via that?
Thanks,
Lewis

Disavow is a very useful tool, but it can definitely effect your site negatively. Be careful how you use the Disavow tool.
Disavowing the direct link is the best way to tackle removing those links. In other words, finding the direct page link that your link is on, rather than just the main domain. Otherwise, those links will still exist within the website. I would definitely try to get this resolved. However, it looks as though this site is one to be reported as it looks very spammy.
We have found a numerous amount of spam URLS that our webmaster tools has pulled linking to us. It is important to get these cleared up to be seen as trustworthy to Google. Having links that are not related to your website is seen as "bad" through Google.

Ecommerce site product link. How to handle a link that doesn't exist.
Suppose we have this product A, and we just have a single item for this. When the item is sold out we do not want to show it on the website saying "out of stock". Instead we would like to remove the product from out store which will now result in a url that doesn't exist. And google webmaster tool and Moz analytic will show them as page not found after they crawl over the site. Should i be generating a new sitemap.xml and update ? How do i handle those pages that don't exist anymore ? Thanks

How can you tell if Google has already assessed a penalty against your site for spammy links?
Is there any way to tell for sure if there is a penalty? My client has a ton of low quality back links, and I think they are in danger of a Penguin penalty. Any way to know? The links are there for a business reason.... their clients mention them in the footer, with a backlink. It is not a link scheme. but folks are generally not clicking on a footer link, and so there is a pro/con of leaving it as it. Any way, to diagnose whether a Penguin penalty has already hit?

Difference in incoming links between web masters tool and moz
Why are incoming links to my site in Google Webmasters tools totally different then in MOZ? Which is correct? According to Google as of this week I have hundreds of links coming from linkarena (dot) com (Never heard) Does any one know who they are or if they are hurting me? I definitely did not pay them to put me on there. It looks like a German site. Thank you.

Unexplained Crawl Diagnostic Errors & Opencart
Hi, I've been looking at the crawl diagnostics for my site and trying to fix the errors that are showing up but Seomoz is producing some strange results. It's saying pages are duplicated upto 16 times but those pages dont exist. It's adding "page=3", "page=4" to the end of the product URL but I don't see how it's finding those pages, nothing on the site(as far as I can tell) is linking to them. There is no "page=3", just the one product page. Again on the duplicate content it's saying under the "other URLs" there's URLs like "http:///product-a" but again I don't see where it's finding these URLs and obviously those URL's dont work. Those three slashes aren't a typo either. So far I've reduced the amount of errors from 2,005 to 543 but the rest of them I can't make sense of. Also, what does one do when you have two products, eg: "product-a-white" and "product-a-black" to prevent Seomoz from seeing duplicates? Canonical links wont work because there's no parent item, just those two. Google Webmaster tools doesn't seem to have a problem though. Using Opencart 1.5, if it helps. Cheers,

Rel=nofollow link to a NoFollow, NoIndex Page?
I have a multitude of "schedule a demo" pages/forms on my site that are all identical, so I have on all of them. My question is, should I also place on the link to the "schedule a demo" pages? I know the generic rule is to never nofollow any internal links (per Matt Cutts http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVOOB_Q0MZY), but should that still apply if the link directs to a page that is noindex, nofollow? Thanks for your input in advance; don't want to run into, as Matt Cutts puts it, "a mini kerfuffle!"
