Backlink Analysis With Monitor Backlink Tool

Google launched a new algorithm back in 2012 which changed the concept of backlinks and search engine optimization totally. Before that the more backlinks your website has the more ranking of your page has on google. As I said the concept has changed now. So, backlinks are only valuable if they are good backlinks. Bad backlinks or un natural backlinks can really harm your ranking and lead to google penalty. There are many tools available to analyze if the backlinks are good or bad based on many factors. Let us talk about Monitor tool backlinks.

Backlink analysis:


Backlink removal requires patience and takes time. You must analyze it by yourself which backlinks you want to keep and which one to remove. I have used monitor backlinks and this tool really helped me. The tool is paid but there is a 30-day trial.

  • Register your account on monitor backlink: https://monitorbacklinks.com/signup
  • Use webmaster tool to export the report of backlinks
  • Login to monitor backlink and navigate to “Add new backlinks”
  • Hit import links from file. Once you will click on import link, monitor backlink tool will automatically detect backlinks from webmaster tool.
  • Now you must filter the backlinks. While filtering backlinks you must sort the links based on below terms:

Trust flow: This shows how trustworthy the backlink is by quality. If the backlink is authoritative and qualitative it will increase trust flow of your website.

Citation flow: Citation flow means how popular the website is without measuring quality of the website like Porn sites. There should be a balanced ratio of trust flow and citation flow.

Spam score: Spam score is another important factor which should not be neglected in any case. It ranges from 0-17 and links with spam score more than 5 are generally spam links.

Status: Backlinks have different statuses to identify if it is “dofollow link” or nofollow link”. If the status of the link is Ok it is do follow and if it is NF, I strongly recommend ignoring those links. If the status is “BNF” it means the backlink is now removed from your website.
Monitor backlink is very active and continuously checks the status of your backlinks.

Google Index status: This is another important term. It shows whether the website was penalized or not. If it is red it means the domain is not indexed and if it is yellow it means that page is not indexed. The domain which is not indexed should be avoided strongly.

Page authority, domain authority, mozrank, TLD/IP and traffic are other factors to be analyzed. You should check all these factors before deciding if you want to keep the backlink or remove.

Once you have found the link you want to remove, tag the link so that you can find the link later.
Or you can generate a report with graphic charts for better understanding.

Once the report is generated you just need to submit a disavow file and you are all set.

How to Remove Backlinks Using Google Webmaster Tool

Backlinks are important for the SEO of your website but there are some scenarios where you want to remove backlinks. Backlinks are basically upvote for page however if it is not a good backlink then it is a downvote and this hampers the visibility or your website or blog on Google. If you have bad backlinks, then you must learn how to remove bad backlinks. There are number of backlinks removal services which are paid and not that much effective. Removal of bad backlinks can also save you from Google penalty.

google-webmaster-tool

As I said this is not a tough task and it is just a two-step process with Google Webmaster tool.

  1. Identify the bad backlinks
  2. Removal of bad backlink

Identify the bad Backlinks


This process generally takes time. If your website has so many backlinks you probably have a lot of work to do. You should have a list of all the backlinks to your website first.

  1. Download links to your site
  2. Login to webmaster tool
  3. Select your website
  4. Select search traffic from left panel
  5. Hit links to your site and click more to view all the links to your site.
  6. Click on download this table to export a .csv file with all the backlinks to your website.

Now you have downloaded all the Backlinks to your website. Doing a manual Backlink analysis is tough if you have large number of Backlinks. There are so many Backlink analysis tools available on web with trial period as well. You can register to any of them to do analysis of which link to keep and which to remove. One such tool is monitor Backlinks which provides 30 days trail as well. So just register yourself for trial and do a proper Backlink analysis. To know about Backlink analysis with monitor Backlink tool read our article: Monitor backlink analysis tool.

In case you have ever paid to purchase any backlink, I strongly recommend removing all the backlinks and start over. Purchasing backlinks is one of the main reason of decreasing ranking.

 Removal of bad Backlink or Disavow Backlinks


You have downloaded .csv file of all the backlinks now use this file to create a .txt file containing only the links which you want to remove with one link per line.

  1. Login to Google Disavow tool
  2. Choose your website
  3. Hit Disavow links
  4. Upload your .txt file which you have created.

Once you will upload your new file all the previously uploaded files will be removed automatically. Google takes time to process your request.

Does Buying Backlinks from Fiverr works for SEO? Is it Safe?

Only a few backlink building Gigs on Fiverr works but it is very hard to find the best service on it. We can't totally neglect all the Gigs because some are listed by genuine freelance service providers. But most of the Gigs for backlink building give fake promise that their service will boost our ranking. The difficulty is, we have to search and find the best Gig from thousands of Gigs which are on Fiverr.


Few weeks before I have ordered 2 Gigs on Fiverr, My first gig order is to build a dofollow backlink through the guest post from a High Domain authority 83 website and another one I purchased to build 100 dofollow comment backlinks. I have read their description, it looks like a genuine SEO service so I believed it and ordered it without any hesitation.

Did they deliver what they wrote in the description? Yes, they delivered but the problem is my first Gigs guest post was disappeared and removed by the admin of that website after one week. It made me very disappointing because I cant do anything after the payment and after accepting their work.

fiverr-gig

My second gig for building comment backlinks also delivered as like they told me, but they created backlinks from the same domain again and again. For example from one domain, they gave 5-10 dofollow backlinks. This will look like a spam link, It won't be useful for my blog, so I asked them for the refund for their low quality work. First, they denied the refund, then I argued and told them I will give 1-star rating for this bad work. After a big argument, they gave me the refund.


If you are a person without proper SEO knowledge you may get cheated by these kinds of fake services on Fiverr. So aware of this and carefully purchase the Gigs.

How to Avoid a Fake Service and order a Best Fiverr Gig?


Don't believe the 4.9 or 5.0-star rating blindly to purchase a Gig. Because they can increase the rating of the gig by purchasing their own service using other accounts.  Before purchasing a freelance service on Fiverr, just contact them and ask for their previous works which they did for other customers and check their quality of work.  It is the best way to select a Fiverr gig without any risk.

If a work is not up to the standard of what you think then neglect it and ask for the refund and go for another gig. I have also written some latest SEO tips for new webmasters who don't know much about search engine optimization.

I hope this post about buying backlinks from Fiverr gave some idea for you. Buy best Fiverr gigs and use this platform in a smart way to build backlinks.

Spam Link Building Strategies vs. Natural Link Building Techniques

Building a natural dofollow backlink from a high authority site is not easy on these days because most of the webmasters are afraid to give a dofollow link to a new or other irrelevant sites because they may get penalized from google penguin algorithm if they give links to the spammy or irrelevant sites. Google penguin is watching all the websites and blogs often to disqualify them from its search engine if it is trying to come top on search engine by trying spam link building strategies. So we should aware of the unnatural, spammy links and have to avoid it and should try to build backlinks in a natural way.


Spam Link Building Strategies


Spam links will definitely hurt your site ranking on the search engine so we have to carefully build each backlink and it should look like a natural link to search engines.

spam-link

How to avoid Link Spam?


In this post, I am writing few spam link building ways that you should not try at any time in your blogging career.

Spam Blog Comments


If a site has thousands of other sites dofollow links on the comment section then don't take backlink from it and it won't be an effective backlink for you. When google panda updates rollout you can easily get caught and these type of backlinks get zero value.

Paid Links


Nowadays many SEO services providing links for money. We can buy and build the number of backlinks in a short period of time. They fix the cost of these type of backlinks according to the domain authority. If a site has high domain authority then they will sell backlink from it for the higher price. It is the easy way for us to create backlinks for a particular keyword. But building more number of backlinks again and again for a specific keyword looks unnatural and it will hurt our rankings.


Exchanging Links


Many links exchanging websites are available on the internet. If you place a link on your website which they give and in return they will give a dofollow backlink from their website. Link exchanging is an easy way to gain more backlinks but it won't give good results for your blog nowadays. You should not place those sites links on your site because those sites already have more URLs on their homepage or other pages. Google hates the sites which are with more dofollow links build for other sites because it looks like a paid service or link exchange site. If you link those sites on your blog or site, the chances of getting penalized by Google penguin is high.

Spam Articles


Most of the paid link building services will cheat the SEO service seeking clients in this way. This method will give a bad reputation for your blog on the search engines. I have seen some Gigs on Fiverr, they will promise you that they will build 10 or more dofollow links from article submission directories by writing an article. You should not buy those type of gigs because if they submit the same article on different sites again and again then it will be considered as a spammy article by Google. Your site will also get affected if you try this bad link building technique.

Directory Submissions


Low authority directory submission sites may give the negative impact for your blog on search engines. But high authority directory submission sites are still a good way to built backlinks. So build powerful links from high domain authority directory submission sites. It works well if you try it for off-page search engine optimization.

Natural Link Building Techniques


I have to say to you that natural link building needs a lot of patience and discipline. If you have that then you can surely succeed in this blogging career. Because it should not look like a spam link at any stand for search engines.

natural-links

Guest Post


This is 100% working most efficient way to get Backlinks because Google too loves the dofollow link from guest posts. So you can increase your blog's authority and rank soon by writing guest posts with the dofollow link. You can find high domain authority ranked sites which are based on your niche and contact them to write a guest post and ask for a dofollow link. If they agree, you can make backlinks one by one and those links will look like natural for search engines.

Write Good Content


It can generate natural backlinks without any manual work from you to build backlinks. Because if a reader of your blog finds the article which you wrote as more useful or informative then he may share it on his blog or he may point out our blog post URL for reference. So in this way, natural links will be created by the users automatically without any work from our side.

Social Signals


Constantly update your blog and share it on the pages of Facebook or Twitter or other sites where more users are engaging. This is an easy way to reach some viewers without the help of search engine. If our articles impress them, then viewers may convert as our followers. We can reach more people using this technique. Google loves the social signals and according to some SEO experts, Google considers it as its one of the ranking factor. So this is also the best way to build natural backlinks.

I hope these basic SEO tips about the spam and natural links will definitely helpful for you.
