Hi Guys,

Any other SEO's out there seeing a lot of backlinks from .ru, .nl, .pl sites regarding forex trading and binary type anchor texts?

It looks like www.ukbusinessforums.co.uk has been cloned across around 30 different domains and causing some really low quality backlinks to be passed to any website that has a link on this forum.
 
Yes, I've seen that too. It's not anything that UKBF can prevent and I'm not sure it's worth logging all these sites and complaining to Google or adding a disavov. Google probably already know about them.

It's almost never bad to disavow garbage links.

Using the disavow process shows an active webmaster who is monitoring their site presence on the web and who cares about their backlink profile.

It also shows one who is willing to do Google's dirty work for them.

It's Google's problem to work out the wheat from the chaff, not ours. Accept that responsibility and you're opening a bigger can of worms than you may be able to handle. How many fake spammy copycat / autocontent sites do you think you can detect and report every month? 100? 1000? 1,000,000?

There are better ways to spend your time.

I quite like the links I've got from a trans-gender fetish site in Singapore. Somebody cared enough to add the link to their site so it would be churlish to ask for it to be removed.

If you care about your rankings, which in turn drive organic traffic, which in turn results in SALES from Google derived traffic, then it's YOUR JOB to get the most you can from Google.

If you don't want or need organic traffic, then send it to your competitors - I'm sure they'll be pleased that you're doing THEIR JOB for them.

Don't be lazy and leave free money on the table. By disavowing the garbage, you help clean up the indexes from spammers, help get you the most rankings/traffic/revenue, and feed the family.

That kind of thinking reminds me of the story about theOkefenokee pigs. :)
