Google doesn't tolerate Wordcloud websites in the slightest.
They just take everything off their server and ban site from adsense if there was any on.

Yes, "Wordcloud sites" connotate "links to all different kinds of sites"

no maybe the real reason is that they are droped domains without any links!

Hmmm, all cloudsite with the general idea of link farming will get banned. No matter if some are dropped or some are not.
That's what i heared....

directories links to all kinds of sites too , but the difference is they are categorized.Then the time for category based word cloud sites has come :)

So you think http://www.webdirectorybid.com/ pr7 will be banned?
its a site with links that are based in the first letter of the site.
i dont think so....:rolleyes:

Word cloud sites are generally link farms driven around spam outgoing links to all sorts of websites that are not even close to their niche and subject.

This is enough for Google to lower your value consistently in the SERPs

Directories are not really linkfarming...
cloudsites do, and they are not categorized

I checked some famous word cloud sites and they are alive , what was the ages of the domains ? Maybe they applied a age/link quantity filter.

Still alive you mean. They will we gone if they practice the concept of a Cloudsite.

no.you are not right.this sites were deleted or baned from G because 1)they havent backlinks,2)they havent contain and 3)no traffic.is as simple as this.

Yes, and guess what, thats what you call a: "Cloudsite"
Now where do you contradict me in this?

scoobby

Jul 27th 2007, 2:56 am

Cloudsites are plain useless anyway :D Google will continue to lower their value over time as people also realize in the same time that its not worth wasting your time with such resources full of spam.

i agree with you.but its not a new rule of G is that this sites concept have the 3 reason that i said earlier.

gerritpoel

Jul 27th 2007, 2:58 am

Well No traffic is wrong.
Alot of sites have no traffic.
They dont get banned.
Google does not ban sites due to low or no traffic

But yes I agree, they are useless for long term.
Although you can probably make small profit from it in the beginning.

Mihai

Exactly, Google does not filter websites with low or no traffic from the SERPs, this is not a filter category for their rules and it never was. On the other hand, relevancy regarding outbound links and relatively next to no content is the reason for sure.

mikey1090

Jul 27th 2007, 8:06 am

would clouds are 0% quality links

No content on the site

No related content to the links

Lots of outbound links

Selling text links

Outbound links are not related

Therefore the ultimate link farms. I guess google hates them

Google hates WordCloud sites and So do most internet users. They are just spam/crap.
Their only use is to sell links and even at that they do a piss poor job. At least a paid directory has things catagorized.

I hate wordclouds so much that I signed up with "dreamhost" for some hosting and their user controll panel was a f$%k'n wordcloud. I canceled my account the next day. That shit is annoying to no end.

Not to mention usability problems that you have encountered, words clouds are a pain because of the search engines issuing penalties against them more and more frequent.

world cloud and million pixel script is the easiest way to get banned from google, already banned me 2 sites in this 2 days
but there is a button that says
Submit a reconsideration request
i doubt though if they will reconsider indexed them again

Mihai

They are getting worse against this type of websites. It has been proven by many million pixels and word cloud website owners that got dumped by the big G.

Jul 29th 2007, 1:07 pm

Hi ... think this is relevant. I had links from 4-6 "Word Cloud" type sites in a set of 41 back links. These sites disappeared from my google.com/webmasters/tools/links?siteUrl= on 13 July 2007, along with 2-3 highly relevant sites. The latter 2 links drove a small amount of uniques, and had been in place for about a year. The deletions were replaced by 130 back links, of which 94 seem totally irrelevant -- a list of my pages on a site I don't know. It all seemed quite bizarre, but bizarre is an alternative, acceptable spelling of google.

It seems that google came out with another filter , for penalizing these types of sites.

Those 3 sites are very alike.

Most of them are using the same scripts and vaguely no content. Its not hard to see that.
