Show Notes

Enter the contentious realm of toxic links with industry experts, Mark A Preston and Kasra Dash. As the SEO community stands divided - one side firmly advocating for disavowing while the other believes Google disregards such links - Kasra offers a riveting recount of his hands-on experiment. He narrates the dramatic impact of a mere 15 toxic links on website performance, its subsequent recovery post-disavowal, and the undeniable correlation observed. While conceding that Google is smarter and often ignores blatant spammy links, Kasra emphasizes that not all toxic links are created equal. Some, especially from link building databases, can severely harm your site's SEO. With insights from conferences in Vegas, Estonia, and Brighton SEO, dive deep into this captivating exploration to understand the real potency of links and make an informed decision on the disavowal process.
