Link Admin - How To Delete Bad Links (from Bill)

oh yeah, sometime explain to me how you select out bad links for deletion in linkadmin - some kind of database sort based on domainname in the links?

Let's say a domain is dead & you need to delete all the links in the db on that domain. You can either:
1 - Search the domain in Accepted Links in the admin & delete them 10 at a time
2 - Download the data.AcceptedLinks.txt file, open it in Excel, sort the entire contents* by Column D & then delete the entire line for each bad link
* Due to some potential empty columns, if you just click "Sort" it may only sort some of the columns & not all of them, causing numerous problems when you go back & sort it again.

Are you asking this?

The second approach basically - after asking I ran thru the process in my imagination, knowing what output xenu gives you, and decided I had a pretty good idea of how it must be done.

When I try it I may have more questions.

That does remind me, I need to start up a Xenu Tip & Tricks thread.
