Welcome to the Q&A Forum

I think that the better tactic would be to create new content for those broken links.  Unless these links are located on a very bad domain (link farm, etc.), I would just create a new page.

Be careful before you start messing with the disavow tool.  The only time I would use the disavow tool is if the link is obviously bad.  Like obviously obviously bad (if that makes sense).  Many people assume that their ranking tanked because of some algo update and start disavowing links without really checking into it.  Just be careful before using that tool and research the hell out of the link before you throw it away.

Here is a good article that gives you the Do's and Don't of using the Disavow tool.

Good luck!

That is wrong...from Matt Cutts and Danny Sullivan:

Question:

Just to double-check, reconsideration should only be done if they’ve gotten a message about a manual action, correct?

Answer:

That’s correct. If you don’t have a manual webspam action, then doing a reconsideration request won’t have any effect.

I know that it gets aggravating when you're doing the right thing and your competitors are cheating with seemingly no repercussions, but trust me when I say that they will get swept up eventually.  Here is a list of unnatural link building tactics.

If they are doing any of these, they will get sodomized by Google (probably sooner than later).

If you want to be proactive there is a Spam Report Form that submits websites to the Google Web Spam Team.  I can't say how well your Karma will do afterwords, but go for it if you want.

Sickem!!!

There is absolutely nothing wrong with multiple 301's pointing to the same page.

If everything you do is white hat and you have good original content, I wouldn't worry about it YET.  Google is constantly messing around and testing.  Wait a day or two and see if the problem resolves itself.  I had a highly profitable keyword plummet from 1 to 50 in a day and the next day it was back to 1.  These things happen.

I think that it all depends on how bad the content is.  If you have content that is complete and total crap (10+ instances of the same keyword, reads like a toddler wrote it, etc.), it is better just to kill it and redirect your pages elsewhere.  On the other hand, if the content is salvageable, then take the time to re-write it and make it good.  The benefit of this is that at the end of the day you have good content instead of a bunch of links re-directed to pages that don't necessarily have anything to do with the old content.

Good luck!

P.S. Don't forget the disavow tool if you need it!

The best place to find great agencies is Moz's recommended list.  If they are on it, they know their stuff.

I hope that helps!

This is old school SEO that does not work anymore.  Sorry!

Cutts said webmasters frequently abused this feature by creating a number of subdomains for the same types of content aimed solely at generating more links to their sites (and dominating SERPs). Adjusting algorithms to treat subdomains and subdirectories prevented webmasters from abusing the practice. As such, Cutts advises webmasters and marketers concerned with URL structure for both SEO and optimum user experience to structure links in whichever format is most convenient for them.

Here is Matt's Q/A tackling subdomains : <a>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_MswMYk05tk</a>

I see that your site is dealing fine with 404 errors.  Hrmm.  Could you copy and paste the crawl error URLs you are getting from webmaster tools?  Thanks!

BTW I noticed that you have a duplicate content issue in that you haven't removed the www from your URL.  You should add the following code to your .htaccess file.

<code class="htaccess" title="in your .htaccess file">RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^my-domain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://my-domain.com/$1 [R=301,L]</code> 

I hope you take this as constructive instead of taking this personally, but your page is not doing anything well in regards to onsite or offsite SEO.

Here is just a small taste of what is wrong with your website:

1. You are keyword stuffing like a crazy person.  You mention bail bonds 2 dozen times on your home page alone when I stopped counting.

2. You have no in bound links to speak of.  http://www.opensiteexplorer.org/domains?site=alexpadillabailbonds.com

3. Your site load time is terrible.  I stopped measuring after 45 seconds.

4. None of your blog posts are indexed in Google (I couldn't check it because your website was down).

Here is a good list of ranking factors.

Good luck!  You have a lot of work to do.
