hi, I have some sites of myself, one of site seem be penalized (old site,trusted,pr5), should I stop my other site like this site? (the site be penalized, "site:" can show normal, but can not listed in search results. some people clone full this site content) welcome any ideas, Thanks.
I think your question is whether you should link from sites that are still ranking decently to a penalized site? First up - that site's not trusted, or it wouldn't have a penalty. Second: depends on why it's got the penalty in the first place. The way to go would be to first clean up that site, then do a google reinclusion request and then link to the site with other sites of yours on reasonably related pages.
Don't listen to trichnosis. Unless you've done something dodgy or blackhat, then you don't have to worry about linking to that site. There's a whole bunch of reasons you could have lost placement. Keep on promoting as normal and give it a few weeks and let the dust settle. Don't panic and start doing rash things. Removing links is certainly not going to help things!
some one tell this site just because of DUPLICITY!!!, it is not penalized because of duplicity, those pages are filtered out of serps. should I stop link to this site? Thanks for any replies.
I say this site is trusted, just beacuase this site is very old, pr is good always, dmoz listed for long time, the rank of keywords is good before, just these serval months I update a little of content, after this google dance, pages are filtered out of serps.
'Someone' is right - duplicate content isn't penalised, it's just filtered out of the SERPs. Listen to thetafferboy83 (but don't listen to trickyboynosis) - a loss in rankings isn't necessarily caused by a penalty, there could be lots of reasons.
If you do see results for your site when you query site:www.yoursite.com than your site is not banned on Google. You could check that by using seo tools such as Google banned checker to check if your site is banned or not (even tho, the fact that you get results on query site:www.yoursite.com tells that your site is not banned). Anyway, seems like your problems is SERPs, you should work on and see how to SEO improve your site better to rank on the SERPs.
I can use "site:" command to find all pages of this site, just can not be finded in search results. someone clone all my site content (content is created by myself) one year ago, now google select these clone sites, how to slove it, Thanks.
Build some backlinks to your pages, to your main site, mainly from other sites with similar content but higher PR. This should solve your problem till a certain point.
im guessing your site is in the supplemental index. linking to it should be a way to get out but not sure as the clone sites are valued higher in google.
where to report these clone sites? someone copy all the content, then use it with serval domains, where to report these clone sites? Thanks
