Thanks 1. There were some really bad links appearing in google webmaster links report (2000+ domains) and I disavowed those domains and added these new powerful links. Two days later my website tanked. I have now removed the disavow file and you are right that this can well be because of...

Update. Google webmaster tool is now showing all new backlinks (the ones I was hoping to benefit from).

Thanks for helping me with this issue. It is great to have someone to discuss perplexing SEO problems. I am aware of that google sites trick that is being used to jack up ahrefs ratings (which recently ahrefs has stopped counting towards DR) Before placing these links, I checked Anchors...

Thanks for very hope inducing response. But the problem is there is no dance. Position is tanked and now stuck there. I wish there was some up and down change.

So what happened next? Did your site recover? Were you able to get back to original position after removing the backlinks?

Hello, 15 days back got few extremely high DA backlinks. Two impacts: 1. Couple of days after adding backlinks, website went down from average position 13 to 20 for 1000plus keywords. 2. Google webmaster search console does not show those powerful links. Many other backlinks of low DA...

Pain is better than nothing??

IM is too abstract for tech guys who trust algos as perfect and too technical for marketing guys who only know how to deal with imperfect humans ("verses set to music and repeatedly intoned are very effective)
