Sites that look risky
Tick the ones you want in your disavow file. Nothing is added without your say-so.
Your disavow file is ready
Preview the file
Next: upload it to Google
- Open the Disavow links tool in Search Console and pick your property.
- Upload the file. It replaces any file you uploaded before, which is why your old entries are included.
- Keep a copy. Next time, add it as your old file in step 1 and we’ll merge it.
How sites are flagged
Every site linking to you gets a risk score from 0 to 100. You can see exactly why in each site’s details.
- Gambling, pharma, adult or shady sites: those words in the domain, link text, page title or URL.
- Spam-heavy domain endings such as .xyz, .top, .icu and .buzz.
- Keyword-stuffed links: your money keywords used as the link text, especially again and again.
- Footer links on every page, worse with keyword link text.
- Wrong language: pages in a different language or alphabet from your site.
- Scraper and “site worth” pages that auto-generate pages about your domain.
- Directories, bare IP addresses, machine-made names and high Moz spam scores.
Strong authority or real search traffic lowers the score. A respected site with real visitors is rarely worth disavowing. Sites where every link is nofollow or already gone are skipped, because there’s nothing to disavow.
The file you download has no duplicates, is grouped with comments, and is checked against Google’s limits (2 MB, 100,000 lines, UTF-8).
FAQ
Do I even need to disavow links?
Usually not. Google ignores most spammy links on its own. Disavowing makes sense when you have a manual action for unnatural links, or you knowingly built or bought links that break Google’s spam policies. If neither applies, this tool is still useful as an audit. Just be conservative about what you tick.
Are my files uploaded anywhere?
No. Every export is read and scored in your browser. Nothing is sent to a server, and your settings and never-disavow list are saved only in this browser.
Which backlink exports work?
Google Search Console (Latest links, Top linking sites), Ahrefs (backlinks and referring domains, UTF-8 or UTF-16), Semrush, Majestic, Moz Link Explorer and SE Ranking. Any other CSV, TSV or plain list of URLs works too. If the columns aren’t recognised you can match them by hand.
Will the tool disavow anything automatically?
No. Risky sites are flagged with a reason, but nothing goes into your file until you tick it. Sites from your old disavow file stay ticked unless you untick them, and anything on your never-disavow list is held back for you to decide.
What happens to my old disavow file?
It’s merged: lines are lowercased, www is removed, duplicates are dropped, URLs already covered by a domain: line are removed, and your old comments are kept. Each site shows whether it was already in your file, is new, or was in your file but now looks clean.
Domain or URL level?
Domain level (domain:example.com) is the default and what Google recommends for spam sites. Switch a site to URL level in its details when only specific pages on an otherwise fine site are the problem.
