Google De-indexes and Penalizes Private Blog Networks

Google has made it tough for a lot of members here who have blogs and websites. Thanks for sharing this mchrest.

 

That is just okay. Besides, we are expecting that for many years already.

 

Welcome to Panda Now it's time to explore another ways of linkbuilding, i think.

 

Have your sites been hit? Here are some of the latest highlights:

** Google has de-indexed huge amount of Private blogs and devalued a lot of them!
** Over optimization penalty. This penalty is specific to : to many links to one specific keyword or keywords
** Google appears to have implemented a threshold for “too many” exact match anchor text links.

Here it is:

“Link evaluation. We often use characteristics of links to help us figure out the topic of a linked page. We have changed the way in which we evaluate links; in particular, we are turning off a method of link analysis that we used for several years. We often rearchitect or turn off parts of our scoring in order to keep our system maintainable, clean and understandable.”

tell that the people who owned 100's of these sites

 

Is this happened to your sites? please tell it here.

 

This was suppose to happen... The whole web is full of shallow content and blog networks which adds nothing to the search results. This update is again refreshing the memories of rolling out Panda algorithm.

 

Creating backlinks to your blogs should be a good way to prevent your blog from being de-indexed.

 

Back links have nothing to do with this. Google has de-indexed low quality blogs with articles that been spun or are garbage content...maybe read the article

 

I understand. But how does an algorithm determine if content is "garbage"? I'm a recent Computer Science graduate and have done quite a bit of work in algorithm analysis and I can tell you that it's not easy to create programs that analyze content. Google's web crawling algorithm extracts text from meta tags and then parses all of the words and converts them into a series of word occurrences, taking note of which words are on the page and where they are located. This list is sorted and used to compute the IR score. The IR score is then combined with pagerank to provide an indicator for the general importance of the page. If the IR or PR score is too low, the blog may get de-indexed, according to this new update. One way to prevent that would be to raise the Pagerank by providing backlinks, preventing the page from being de-indexed.

 

This is good news. Another step at stopping all the BS on the net and stopping people from makeing large networks of garbage sites. and stops people from wasting their money on these worthless services.

 

The article doesn't mention anything about penalties or blogs.

“Link evaluation. We often use characteristics of links to help us figure out the topic of a linked page. We have changed the way in which we evaluate links; in particular, we are turning off a method of link analysis that we used for several years. We often rearchitect or turn off parts of our scoring in order to keep our system maintainable, clean and understandable.”

Of course the guys at google are going to say something like this, even if they hardly ever update or rearchitect there algorithms. The only thing that I'm concerned with is the mathematics behind the algorithms that run google. People can lie, Mathematics doesn't.

 

My thoughts exactly! This is only a good thing unless you are a complete hack.

So many changes in the SERPS lately I'm sure this had a major impact.

 

I am happy that you know exactly how Google algorithm works ! But having a high page rank does not and DID not prevent sites from being DE-indexed. there were several PR4-5+ blogs that had very poor quality content that were de-indexed. I know them personally. I have a list of site that contained some of my links that were PR5 that were de-indexed. So for all you think you know ....you dont know

 

Can you provide a source to the PR5+ blogs that got de-indexed because there content was of poor quality?

 

This is getting very technical for Google to grade such kind of links. Hope they come into the purpose and how the links are posted by whom so they won't charge wrong value for not intended links.

 

Sure here you go: european-club[.]net
And I have list of two more hundrets domains PR1-5 that got deindexed.
Sad picture, happely those are not mine, but my links was on it, anohter good news positions remain the same, maybe because this networks wasn't my only strategy.

Another tought: Anyone can suggest any other way to place cheap bulk links. I personaly need it to avoid Google filter that lowers positions because of particular anchor overuse.

 

Welcome to Panda my friend. Personally I've been working on post-panda rules for about a year now and when Panda came into force I saw a massive increase in my rankings because of the artificially promoted competition being de-indexed.

I love Panda!
