Inbound links from Spam websites

[penguin123]

Hi,

I have noticed that there are inbound links i.e. links from other websites linking to mine (obtained in GSC > Links ) that comes from spam websites (with malicious codes).

Will it hurt SEO for my website ?

If the backlinks are not relevant and not generated by you, it is advisable that you should disavow such links from spam website for best practices.

spammy backlinks are links originating from spammy websites. Such links are usually either coming from low-quality websites that are known from spamming (like link farms) or simply from websites that have poor domain authority.
