New SPAM sites...billions of results!!!!

Yes and the result is "tightening of the belt" so to speak. That may translate to a bigger mess AND many more innocent webbies getting caught in the trap. For those that are screaming blue murder now...what is to follow I wonder ? I think what Google is attempting is the inabilty to game them and I can see reasoning behind that. They are really trying to draw a line between natural and artificial- duped and non-dupped content. Most of the general Google user base has NO CLUE about this. In the meantime it looks like MSN has surpassed them with relevance. All they need now is a larger share of search hours. I believe that it will happen in time because Google, obviously, has a larger bite than they can chew. I don't know about you but I can't count on Google's shaky ground whilst running a 100% web based business.

I am pretty sure that they will stabilize eventually and probably be the leanest, meanest, foul proof engine. At what cost I wonder

 

This isn't actually a BigDaddy issue, the flaw has been around for years. Just never been exploited quite like this.

You create spam sites to attract traffic AND THAT THEY DID.

 

Re: 5 Million Spam Pages I Found in a Couple of Hours That Google Has Missed All Week

mvandemar, can you hunt for SPAM sites again and see how easy it is to find them now? I looked at the first 10 links at

and they have all been banned.

 

Still in the pond

wi2p62. info
72sh3e. info
m116jk. info
miree84p. info
51445. info
i4sluc71. info

I came on these in an obscure search, so if these are there, I guess there will be heaps more...

 

He has disabled it, must have seen your post lol.

*edit*

Ugh Google's cache gives an idea on what was there.

 

Major spammer http://www.alexa.com/data/details/traffic_details?q=&url=freett.com

 

I saw this guys
site:ddl2.com
Strange, very strange!
Is that because they want to include the keyword in the URL or does it have some other reason ...
Say a demo URL
http://www.blah.blah.warez.full.download.crack.serial.ddl2.com-full.warez.full.download.crack.serial.ddl2.com/full/download/warez/crack/serial/blah/blah.warez.full.download.crack.serial.ddl2.com-full/download.php

Any ideas on what this could be ?

 

Subdomain spam galore!

http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&q=site:pneum.be&btnG=Search&meta=

 

No signs of that site going supplemental. I can't believe they aren't using distinct page titles to match the target keywords.

 

Here is another one
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&safe=off&c2coff=1&q=site:onlinehome.us&btnG=Search

What can they really do about this other than no longer crawl/index subs?

 

Good question.

Before google can fix it they have to admit it's a problem. Even if they just admit it to themselves. Then they need to decide if it really hurts their bottom line. If it doesn't, then fixing this may be a long time coming.

As more and more people exploit it, the problem grows. Eventually I think google will put a stop to it. But right now I don't see how this subdomain spam problem is costing google any money. I mean they still make money on the adsense stuff whether it's spam or not. Right?

 

But if they lose advertisers and searchers because of it then...

It's a slippery slope. Do nothing, and the problem grows exponentially.

One of those cases of "If you wait till it's broke to fix it, it's too late."

Agreed. And if the surfers start to go I'm sure google will notice that in about 2 seconds. I'm sure they closely monitor the use of their engine. But how much is this really affecting users and how long before it affects google's bottom line? I don't know...

Right now, unless it's costing google a LOT of money, I see no reason for them to do anything. They just rolled out "pimpdaddy", and they're all apparently patting themselves on the back about it. So far they haven't fixed any of the problems that has created --- for webmasters. But has it really created problems for surfers? Which in turn would cost google $.

I don't know. But I don't think so.

 

It is hopeless. Google doesn't want to fix the problem.

Google cant stop it. there are probably millions of these 456grg7.info sites-Each with 200-40,000 indexed pages. And none of the suplemental either. these spam pages are treated like topnoch content pages-actually better since they are indexed faster, have most recent cache, and probably rank higher too.

 

Matt is back. Everybody post this thread to his blog.
