Catch these spam sites before they're gone

    Just did a search for cheap nokia cellular phone in Google (it's 10.25 am in Malaysia now, GMT +8), and I get loads of spam sites such as:
    http://www.tatunet.ddo.jp/yiner520/rss-1276.html
    http://www.998guide.com/rss/nokia-phone.html
    ...
    and tons of hometown.aol.XXXX sites.

    Reminds me of Yahoo's search results during the year of 2005 when grey hatters were churning out Ranking Power and Traffic Equalizer pages by the minute. In fact, some of my grey hat sites that died end of last year even show some visitors sent over by Google ... what the ...?

    I'm pure white hat now, but seeing results like this sure makes the thought of dabbling with the grey seem tempting.

    Hey, why not?! Just buy some software, throw up some keyword stuffed crap, and let it bring in results for a month or two. And if the sites get banned, so what? Just wait for google to have another "bad data push" and they'll put the old cached versions of your banned pages back in the SERPS for ya!

    That's good stuff ain't it? :)

    Wibr - you sound like an old hand at this :)

    But yeah - that was the mantra (and probably still is) - auto-gen many crap sites a day (.info domains are so cheap), and some will definitely continue to survive. Hosting is relatively expensive though, as you'd need many hosts for the hundreds of spam blogs to point back to your crap sites, but hey, if the income from crap is substantial, what's a little overhead?

    My old crap sites continue to get traffic from Yahoo, MSN and Ask - those that survive tend to be on keywords with little competition.
