Found some External linking to my site, and don't quite know what to do?
Hello Neighbors!
Feels good to be able to blog once again here at WA! I have had a very tryiing summer and I haven't made much progress as i'd like with my digital properties :( but the beauty of WA is we are able to pick up where we left off. So that i am doing!
It's been a while since I checked my webmaster and realized google has a more friendly interface for the user.
I was able to really take a look at my sites and I was actually pleased with one and not so much with the other. While doing some exploring I found some external links to my page. WIth a coupe lnks to bad neighborhoods.
What should I do with this information and how to i regulate who's linking to my pages? I've tried looking for some information on this and came up empty handed.
Getting back on track is my goal for the upcoming holiday season and want my sites in good shape so any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Shannon Kamal

They may try to be taking advantage of your good standing to up their status with Google. You can't really stop them from linking to you. Does their site make sense to link to you? If it doesn't, Google will realize that eventually.
Ah hah I see..
Am I fine as long as I’m not linking back to a bad neighborhood?
And
just leave it be and allow google to handle it?
Correct?
Absolutely do not link back. Instead keep linking to where you want to be, so Google knows what you want, not what they want. You can report them to Google - I believe it's called "disavowing a link" in the Google Analytics interface. That flags it to Google that you don't want anything to do with them.

Hello Kamal...
I was just reading your question and came up with seasoned information from the people who answered it.
Frankly, I didn't know such a thing existed on the net til you asked.
Thank you, we all live to learn..
