How to Use “Disavow links” feature of #Google #Webmaster Tools

When Bing came up with the link disavow tool a few months ago, the entire of the SEO industry kinda looked at Google with tilted heads. Why would Bing do something like that and not the biggest search provider? Since then the has been a term thrown around called “Negative SEO”. This type of SEO involves gaining links from undesirable places to create an artificial Black Hat Scenario for your competition in the hopes they would suffer for it. Since the research and proof for negative results for the type of behaviour is stretched for the most part and almost always unreliable, no one has really worried about the effects of links on your website.

Now that Google has its own tool, and by the tone in Matt’s voice when we says “These can take weeks, even months to take effect” you can tell that they have something in here that is reluctant. By releasing this tool they are basically saying, “Yes its True” to the hype about “Negative SEO” and whether it will actually do anything.

My mind is racing right now,. not just because yes the possibility of knocking my competition out of the ranks is within reach.. i have tools that Google Hates! but they can do this to me.. or you.

Matt also says “Be Careful” .. and again with the very cautionary tone.. i will. thanks.

Enough of the opinion.. heres the goods.
