          Hi guys,

          I recently suffered a major negative seo attack against my site, with more than 380K spam backlinks using more than 5k domains.

          Because of this, I'm having serious problems tracking my site's statistics in GSC due to the limit of only 1000 query lines.

          Please, I need help on how I can get access to all these 5,000 domains in the search console so I can create a disavow list.

          Any tips on how to clean this up?

            Okay, that's some thing different. But tell me one thing. What will I do when I am creating new informational website. What is the strategy will I use for ranking?

                Create a disavow file listing the spam domains and submit it via Google's Disavow Tool.
                Reach out to Google Support, explaining the severity, and request assistance in managing the large number of spam backlinks.

                Best Regards

                  Hey! I'm sorry to hear about the negative SEO attack on your site. Dealing with spam backlinks can be challenging, but it's crucial to take steps to protect your site's integrity. While Google Search Console has limitations, you can utilize the 'Disavow Links' tool to address harmful backlinks. To efficiently manage a large number of domains, consider breaking down the list into smaller chunks for submission. Additionally, seeking assistance from an SEO consultant can be valuable. They possess expertise in navigating such situations, providing guidance on disavow processes, and helping you regain control over your site's SEO health. Really hope this helps! Good luck!
