So, don’t confuse Google making backlinks from low-quality and irrelevant sites. you can disavow a link when you find the link was built from an unrelated, spammy, or low-quality site and you can not remove the link manually.
Here I’m going to show how to disavow bad links in Google and Bing Webmaster Tools.
Disavow Links from Google Webmaster
First, you’ll need to download a list of links to your site. Next, you’ll create a (.txt) file containing only the links you want to disavow and upload this to Google.
Download the list of Links
1: On the Google Search Console home page, click the site you want.
2: On the Dashboard, click Links.
3: Then find Top Linking Sites Tab and Click More
4: From the Right Top, Click Export Button and Download Excel
5 :You have already downloaded the Excel file containing all the backlinks. Find the Domain you want to disavow.
6: Create a text file (the file type must be .txt and it must be encoded in UTF-8 or 7-bit ASCII) containing only links you want to disavow. Keep one link per line. If you want Google to remove all the links from a domain, just add the domain in this way (domain:example.com)
Here’s a sample of a valid file:
http://www.example1com/category/post1
http://www.example2om/category/post12
domain: example.com
