        To answer your questions, YES, the link wheel still works, but only if you do it right, I mean, it all depends on the quality of your link wheels.

        A properly built link wheel, will take more time (and/or money) to build but the results will be up there, you'll get increased keyword rankings and also indirect traffic from the link wheel sites, and contrary to popular belief, if you build it right, google will not be able to spot it and you'll be penalty free.

        If you plan to build a link wheel, I would recommend you to read all the resources at linkwheel.pro before you start building one.

                      Well, you can move to a black or gray hat technique of link building, get results (maybe), and if you do, just have them later backfire on you when Google updates the algo and puts you back to square one.  🙂

                      I would suggest continued education such as http://cloudz.click/academy or other related sites. There is a ton of info out there, just have to see what works for you.

                          Probably not.  If you are going to pay $500 and get a link wheel, you will end up with a bunch of spammy/low quality sites linking to each other and to you and that will just kill you.   In theory, if all the sites were of high quality and were on related topics, sure it would help, but the time and effort and cost would not be worth it.

                            Should I disavow these links?

                            backlinks toxicbacklinks audit backlinkaudit disavow

                            Hi all, I have a ski website that I am currently performing a toxic backlink audit on. I have noted that a lot of the links being flagged as toxic/spammy by the tool I am using seem to be the same/similar sites with different URLs. The sites are vaguely related to skiing (relating to helicopter travel options for travelling to ski resorts) but it is concerning me that there are so many of them and they are being flagged as so toxic.
                            Do you think it is worth disavowing these? Or contacting the owner to ask them to remove the link? I have included an example of some of the links below. https://www.cannes-helicopters.co.uk/index.php?menuopen=21&showcontent=5

                            Disavowing Links

                            I need some advice... I've noticed our link profile has increased with many comments links --- something I certainly have not pursued manually. I'm new to disavowing links. However, before I go ahead and disavow them, I'd like to ask how harmful these links are and would you recommend this is something I can do myself (relatively novice SEO) or if you'd recommend someone who could do this for a reasonable cost. In one instance, the link from this comment thread is with the anchor text, "porn"... Certainly not something we want to rank for, haha! I look forward to your advice

                            Back link from site with DA of 72 to a website domain. Clicking on the link redirects to our website not the attended one.

                            Hi,
                            I've ran a back link check and discovered a good back link to a site which then gets redirected back to my company's website. I have a feeling that an old SEO agency has purchased a small website which has a decent link back from a relevant organisation with a high Domain authority and then redirects the domain to our website to get the link juice. What are your thought on this? Is this really bad practise and possibly damaging? Thanks, Jim

                            Disavow Links - how do you know if it's worked?

                            I asked another SEO company to analysis my link structure (as I was too busy!) As I was flat lining on some work I was doing. They said I potentially had an algo penalty and that i need to do a disavow , even though I had no messages from Google saying I had unnatural links. stupidly I agreed to the disavow. Looking at Webmasters tools it seems they've submitted a bunch of links. Since they've done this traffic dropped by 60%, ranking dropped massively. In google Webmasters all the links which are meant to be removed are still showing. How do I know if the actual disavow has been done? And should I do a reconsideration request? Even though Google hadn't flagged an issue ??

                            Do footer links pass less link juice?

                            One of my best inbound links for PA and DA happens to be a footer link, curious if it's less valuable or has any value at all.

                            Footer Links And Link Juice

                            I'm starting to learn about link juice and notice in GWMT > Traffic > Internal Links, that the list is in this order by the links counted on each page. Some are in the footer and some are in the header, with some being more important than others commercially i.e. /register /privacy /terms /search /sitemap /disclaimer /blog /register So I am wondering if I should add a 'no-follow' attribute to the footer links i.e. privacy, terms, disclaimer and leave the others as they are? Does this help retain link juice on each page where the links appear? Or am I missing the point all together? This is my website: http://goo.gl/CN0e5

                            It looks like LinkedIn's links are using the http://www.linkedin.com/redirect?url= prefix for the external Websites links and is recently using 302 redirects.
