So far I havn't noticed this coming back. Luckly his sites are still dead. If they are baning sites just for being sub-domains, I'm guessing they'll get a ton of complaints!
No, I meant a large amount of smaller under the radar guys, like this one: http://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Aqarchive.org&num=100&hl=en&safe=off Nothing but random products pages, mixed and matched, targeted to long tail keywords, and fueling affiliate links. Check out the title of this page: "Minor - Test the online state of ICQ users. Guitar tuner for PC/Windows" Wtf do those things have to do with each other? I mean, that just screams random keyword distribution, ya know? Then there's this stuff: http://www.google.com/search?num=100&hl=en&safe=off&q=site%3Anomsg.com They acquire these sites, and keep the homepages as they were, to not draw any attention, and abuse the hell out of the subdomains. And this stuff, hosting site: http://www.google.com/search?num=100&hl=en&safe=off&q=site%3Aluciddomains.com+%2Brefinance Sure, you go to the pages and it says "This page has been suspended", the hosting company is saying it's not their fault, someone must have abused their system, right? Then why leave the page up filled with your AdSense ads? C'mon Google, play stupid all you want but we know you're not that gullible. And yet they choose to ban an innocent site making fun of the whole this, SEO Essays. It's coming back, they just tweaked it so they stay under the radar. I've sat on this for months now. Last time, G claimed oh, not a big deal, we woulda found em, yadda yadda. Bull. They were heavily relying on our spam reports to get this stuff. That's why it's still there. -Michael
I know someone who is making more subdomain spam. PM me if you want to watch what happens. Please no public comments I don't think it's right, but I don't want to screw him over.
I'm seeing subdomain spam in the realty area. http://www.google.com/search?q=mont...en-us:IE-SearchBox&rlz=1I7GGLG&start=100&sa=N http://www.google.com/search?q=idah...en-us:IE-SearchBox&rlz=1I7GGLG&start=100&sa=N And the site is 404.
What are you talking about? Please tell me you did NOT just read the first page of a 58 page thread and hit reply without actually reading wth was going on... -Michael
Good to see your comments are so productive as per usual ho ho ho...the general saying at times like this is 'if you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all' Why comment, WHY? Ben
I dont understand why they are mad at you Nintendo for this since this was posted on DIGG right before you posted it. I guess that was your source
No offense, but you really don't seem that bright. The fact that you are trying to be clever just makes it worse. I posted a question. Someone posted "They are all gone"... the person posted it in a 58 page thread, where "they" could potentially 1 of 30-35 different domains. I wanted to know who this "they" was that the poster was referring to. I posted emphatically as I did, because it was the second time in a very short period in which someone made a completely ambiguous post in this thread. You posted a criticism of me, telling me how awful it was to criticise people. This was: a) Off topic, and b) Ironically hypocritical to the point that one has to question your ability to reason You now know my reason for commenting, what was yours? It obviously had nothing to do with this thread, spam, Google, or anything resembling being able to follow a conversation. -Michael
But this site (collegesurfing.com) have more than 25000 backlinks in Yahoo. Many of them looks naturally (no comment or guestbook backlinks) how this spammer can do this? These baclinks looks not like spambot generated... is this really spam?
You need to read the post more closely. He didn't say that collegesurfing.com was spam (you are right, it isn't). What he is saying is that the spammers are using member sites (legitimate sites that allow other people to sign up as members) to seed their sites, point some starter links to it. The se's would then follow those links and give enough credit to the sites linked to that it would get the ball rolling. -Michael
Can you please explain it more? This sites linked from collegesurfing.com in "resources" (in example college-search-online-review.com) looks like legitimate sites too. These sites looks ontopic, they are all about education and school. No crappy v i a g r a keyword stuffing or so?
Ironically your disillusioned sense of self righteousness is in complete disproportion to your inadequate intelect. Your negativity is the kind that always seeks to tear others down, especially those who dare to question your inadequate musings on topics you don't seem to understand. To quote a famous bard "me thinks the lady duth protest too much". I obviously struck a nerve, how ever i believed it necessary to comment upon your constant chastisement of fellow members, when all they do is seek to learn. "In short,here endeth the lesson"
