Guide
Head over to the Backlink Audit tool in the left sidebar.
Enter your website url and hit Start Audit.
Choose the root domain and start the audit.
This is a good marker to have, where if a link shows 60-100 it's toxic; if it's 45-59 it's potentially toxic.
Click on Delete after your toxic links and select To Disavow.
You will find your selected links in the Disavow tab.
Export these links to a TXT file.
Upload the TXT file to Google's Disavow link tool to disavow the harmful backlinks.
