Ignore SEMrush “toxic backlinks” – their model/method is not related to anything google uses
Never disavow backlinks you didnt buy
Never disavow backlinks if you cannot write a reconsideration request. Given that nobody can write a reconsideration request anymore, there is no use or valude in disavowing.
> I feel like Google is smart enough
Google is a piece of software, even though people have been claiming significant capabilities with the use of LLMs. LLMs are not research tools – you can see how stupefying they are in AIO Mode and when you put factually incorrect information in front of them via SEO or AI SEO

>When it comes to gathering new links, I could really use some help here. Is the idea to publish a how-to or blog post and publish it to these blog sites that allow guest entries?
The idea is to get links from any pages that rank in google.; If the page ranks in google you can assume Google trust or likes or values or whatever you want to use.
