Hello Friends,

Today I received the below letter from Google.

Unnatural inbound links to violate Google Webmaster Guidelines. Google has detected a pattern of links from other sites to your site that is either unnatural or irrelevant.

Submit a reconsideration request

Once you fix your site, file for reconsideration to remove this manual action. Include any details or documentation that can help us understand the changes made to your site.

What Should I do , Any prior experience on this. Please suggest me friends.
 
You've been hit for "unnatural link building" by google.
You'll start to notice dropping in serp for this particular website.

What service did you buy last?
Check your site if your competitors are building backlinks to you.
 
Check your backlinks.

Disavow the shitty ones.

Resubmit.
 
Build a disavow list of those .ru sites and upload it to webmaster console. I think aHrefs has some tutorials on this. If not a quick search on "build disavow list" should result in instructions.
 
Most of the times the quality links you build are the in natural ones.

Is it partial or sitewide?

Hi, If I'm not wrong, one of your sites got penalized before, right? How did you get out of the rid and how long did it take?

Thank you very much!
 
All are quality link only from their report but when i check report lot of links from arabeski-spb.ru and ink-group.ru.. seems spammy link but I could not find where is the link comes from this site.
If those links are included in their reports then THEY ARE the reason. Not the .ru websites that link to the whole world.
 
Had this one before in one of my websites.

Updated the disavow file to include spammy domains. When sending reconsideration request I explained some of the backlinks could come from competitors, and I would always to my best to keep disavowing.

10 days after, the penalty was lifted and rankings were soon back.
 
letter as in hard copy ? :eek:

Disavowed a lot of links (strong but with anchor text and spammy)

Got rejected :P

Made a list of all the pages which were affected, saw the links pointing to them. Asked the guest post seller to remove those links.

I didn't touch good pbns, good Diversity links.

Penalty lifted!

And regained the rankings :)
 
is there a realiable website to check your site got hit by this kind of problems?
 
Asked the guest post seller to remove those links.
Yes mate , right now, I am in the process. How many days you have taken before you apply the appeal.
 
Today, we appealed this one. I would post the outcome.
