Tip: Don't Delete Your Disavow File When Uploading a New One

Matt Cutts tweeted a pointer for how to give your disavow file the best chance of success. Cutts recommended that you NOT delete or remove disavow files when you upload a new one, which is the same advice we've been giving you.

The reasoning behind this approach is because when you delete your disavow file it triggers an email ticket to Google staff. Then when you upload your new file it triggers another email. Unfortunately, having more than one email being pushed to Google can cause confusion and potential issues. This is a simple tip, but one worth mentioning.
