Re: Does Google's Disavow-Tool still work - or does it hurt? Digital Media Digital Marketing Search Engine Strategies by IM Tools As of today (2/2/25) the tool is up and running but in Barry Schwartz's May 2024 article he quotes John Mueller as saying "at some point I'm sure we'll remove it". According to Google, *they no longer penalize for bad links*, they just ignore them. I tried to post the link to Barry's full article, but the Daniweb spam bot wouldn't let … Re: Does Google's Disavow-Tool still work - or does it hurt? Digital Media Digital Marketing Search Engine Strategies by adilhassan There's a lot of debate around the Disavow Tool’s effectiveness today.

If a site isn’t under a manual penalty, disavowing might not have much impact or could even remove potentially beneficial links.

Re: Does Google's Disavow-Tool still work - or does it hurt? Digital Media Digital Marketing Search Engine Strategies by ashleydent4u The Disavow Tool was definitely a double-edged sword—while it helped with cleaning up spammy backlinks, it also opened the door for misuse by blackhat SEOs looking to undo penalties. As for whether it still helps today, it seems like Google’s evolved and might not rely on it as much for ranking recovery. They’re likely using more advanced … Re: Does Google's Disavow-Tool still work - or does it hurt?
