What is your advice on this ?

[IM Dude]

I found 350 spam links out of 700 links pointing to my site after going through each link.
I am trying to remove/ disavow it via google console and I see this article:

Step 0: Decide if this is necessary​

In most cases, Google can assess which links to trust without additional guidance, so most sites will not need to use this tool.

You should disavow backlinks only if:

1. You have a considerable number of spammy, artificial, or low-quality links pointing to your site,
   AND
2. The links have caused a manual action, or likely will cause a manual action, on your site.

Now what? I am stuck....

it's a clear answer, what's the confusion about?
in most of the cases and especially for an aged website with some authority & traffic, it won't cause any problems,
for new websites or the ones with low authority and weak or no links then it could lead to some problems (and/or a penalty),
it's really up to you, if you're over-worrying then just go for it

If it doesn't hurt your rank, let it be

Is this an aged domain with decent traction?

I am ranking 2nd to .digital tld and sometimes 3rd to linkedin on brand name search. So amy be its hurting
Also i see all these spam links on ahrefs and semrush and not on google search console.
So my be its hurting,but willl hurt more as these spam links get old and get indexed.
I am pretty sure somene is doin it.

This has happened to one of my projects, and my best advice is it depends on your niche.

If you're in a very competitive niche, Google Disavow might help.

But if you're dealing with a more manageable niche, I suggest you ignore the spam links but focus on growing your site's content.

The key here is to target many different keywords and use online content optimization tools to increase your chances of ranking those keywords.

It also tremendously helps to target keywords that don't have much competition but are directly related to your niche.

So by executing this plan, you have a lot more content, and you're attracting more links that end up diluting spam links.

You get better quality backlink profile that eventually offsets and defeats bad backlinks.

The only downside to this approach is it can take quite some time.

Again, it depends on how competitive your niche is.

If you're in a very tight niche, expect this approach to yield positive results after 6 to 9 months and then some.

But if you're in a fairly easy niche or you have few competitors, this can work in a matter of weeks.

Thank you for valuable advice. It's not a blog it's a business website.
But I am consider adding a blog to it. Also the word count is low per page, I will increase that too.
