How to Monitor New Backlinks in Google Webmaster Tools Search Console for Negative SEO - Tutorial Tuesday. Advanced Link Building. Hello and welcome to another Tutorial Tuesday. Negative SEO has been in the news lately with extortion attempts happening to several large name SEOs, specifically Dejan SEO and Web Gnomes. Today I want to outline how anyone can easily monitor incoming backlinks to protect your clients or SEO agency against any negative SEO attempts, for free, with Google Webmaster Tools. But first, a little context. What is Negative SEO? Negative SEO is the act of attempting to negatively affect a websites search engine optimization. Instead of increasing your own sites optimization for search you work to decrease a competing sites optimization in search. The main goal of any negative SEO campaign is to inflict either a manual penalty or an algorithmic filter, specifically Penguin, upon the target site. Update: Penguin's' latest update changed the way the algorithm evaluates spam links - rather than punishing sites with these links, Penguin now devalues those links. |

Backlinks play an important role in SEO and send a positive signal to Google when its ranking your website. To increase the number of backlinks, view the External Links report. To find this report, head back to Links in the navigation and click the More link at the bottom of the Top linking sites box. It will show you a list of domains that link to your site. These are domains that might give you another backlink, since theyve done so previously. To see the specific links you have from a domain, click on it to get the list.
