I checked my stats in google webmaster world tool and saw a word “S*X†listed under “What Google Bot Sees†in an inbound link. I didn’t see that word in the listed links and I also didn’t get any success from yahoo. I don’t know how to find this link with this word. I am also skeptical about SERP ranking and google TOS at this point of time. My site is not related to this word by any means.
I am serious this time. I want to figure out that bad boy who is linking my site with this word. Help me if you know a trick.
Why Google or you even care that you have a word that says "Sex" in it. It doesn't relly matter. All google cares about is that you on your websites don't have anything that breaks the rules. If google was to ban every one because they had a link with a word they don't like to your site, webmasters you want to get "revenge could place hundreds of links with words that would get them banned. You should worry less. It relieves a lot.
Will it hamper my SERP ranking in future? Google might not ban my site for that word because I don't have it in my website but it might affect my site's SERP ranking. I have seen many sites coming at the top even if they don’t have a single word from the searched phrase in any of their pages but linked externally with an anchor text which holds the word. Someone wants to malign my site, I am worried. Is it logical now?
No. First of all why would they ban a site for having an incoming link of S*X? That doesn't make sense. Lots of people search for this word. If they are doing their job they should be trying to find the sites most relevant to it. Secondly... Why would they ban a site for any incoming link? Even if it were something very offensive (I won't type what I'm thinking here...) Imagine how easy it would be to get your competitors banned if that's all you had to do?
