How large is your disavow file?

[Mentat]

I'm curious.. how large (how many lines) have your google disavow file?
Mine just reached 10 000 domains and still rising :(

I have seen sites hit by P with less than 80 total backlinks so I feel for you with THAT many backlinks to deal with..

This is what I use not (4th round of cleaning)
I would really love to be able to put:

domain:*.info

Download Latest Links csv file from Google Webmaster Tools.

2. Open your prefered Text Editor and do some Seach and replace. It will hem you sample the data on the next step.
I use pipe char |

ex:

.com/ -> .com|/
.net/ -> .net|/
.org -> .org|/
.info/ -> .info|/
.biz/ -> .biz|/
.us/ -> .us|/
.de/ -> .de|/
.ru/ - > .ru|/
.nl/ -> .nl|/
.fr/ -> .fr|/
etc (a lot of TLDs)

3. Open a new excel and import the data Data - Get External Data
Import the CSV file and select pipe I as a separator.

Now you will have on the first column the domain and o the second column the URL structure.

Select the second column (B) and Sort alphabeticaly!

Now you can easily spot the domains that share the same URL scheme structure.

[u]Use search and clean to exclude one by one the domains that you add to the disavow file.[/u]

I used this technique to spot tons of spam domains that had only one link to me, so It was like a needle in the haystack, but I spotted them by the URL structure.

http://xerc.info/1234xxx
http://dfge.com/1234xxx
