I am developing a website on my localhost and i just notice a bunch of incoming links in the dashboard’s incoming links section, which doesn’t look valid.

When i visit the urls i don’t see a reffer to my localhost/domain.com.

the only plugin i had active was “Regenerate Thumbnails”. I disabled the plugin but i can still see the links.

How can i fix this?

regards

The incoming links widget is asking Google for links to the domain you’re on right now. If your domain is localhost you get a lot of links – because that’s a very common domain name. Unfortunately, some people don’t clean up their data when they move from localhost to the world wide web, and then Google will find these links. 🙂

Nothing to worry about.
