My boss bought backlinks... what do I do?

I ran our website through SEMrush to see if there were any areas for improvement and mostly because I was bored. I had been told our SEO was in good shape, but the audit suggests otherwise, so now i have a shit load of things to fix.

Around a quarter of the backlinks were flagged as toxic, and they are 100% from link-selling/backlink networks.

I work in marketing, but SEO is usually handled by our web developer. It’s pretty likely these backlinks were either purchased or recommended by that web guy, since my boss knows nothing about SEO.

Basically, my question is would disavowing all 46 of these backlinks improve or potentially harm our SEO performance?

Local seo vs. natiowide seo?

I've done SEO for local businesses but I recently got my first client that sells an item nation wide. ​ Any suggestions for doing nationwide SEO? ​ I am used to making geopages for local towns. I was going to do the same with some input from the client about what cities or towns he would like to show up in? submitted by /u/Letmeinterviewyou [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News http://bit.ly/2JHy0k0

Copying articles from Google Docs To Wordpress - Bottleneck

My writer sends me content in Google docs and images separately. Uploading them to Wordpress is a pain because I have to download everything individually and upload them one by one. A simple copy paste works for the most part but the main issue is - I want to give my images SEO friendly file names and copying them from docs names then 'image 1' , 'image 2', and so on in Wordpress. Does anyone have a solution for this? I would be forever grateful as it would save me a lot of time in uploading content. submitted by /u/Eastern-Individual64 [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/KiTmF28
