November update is called the SPAM update so its pretty obvious if you got some spam links or people rate you as spam in rating websites then most likely it's the reason.

Wait there's an option to rate others as spam now?

Antivaxxers can't rank on Google that's a fact.

Does social media affect rankings? Yes but indirectly. Same here with review sites.

no, in 2021 social media does not effect ranking so the rest is BS

On November 12, I rejected 1600 spam backlinks with the disallow tool. Until yesterday, I was climbing the rankings. I went through a lot in 1 day. That's what happened once. Then I entered the article and went up the ranking again.

i think your disavow action is the culprit here. Remove your disavow file and your ranking should be back.
you should only use the disavow tool if you get a penalty action from google in your search console.

I think you are right. I declined because semrush called me spammy backlinks. but i went down a lot. If it continues like this, I will do what you say. Thanks for posting a comment

no third party site can tell you what is spammy or not. only google knows. ignore those third party sites when it comes to identifying spammy backlinks.I think you are right.

if you are unsure of a impact of a backlink, then do a test. Pick a very stupid keyword, go to ranked page 70+, and pick a page that you can tell it is not doing any seo works. then point your backlink to it and see the impact in few weeks.
there is no public tool that can tell you with accuracy what is spammy or not. If you the actual tool, reach out to john mueller. I am sure he will be happy to share it with you.
