If you find it, make sure and post it here on dp... I'm sure we'd all love to have an "inside connection"
A spam penalty comes first. That spam penalty causes the PageRank of a site to decrease. Since one of the heuristics to pick a canonical site was to take PageRank into account, the declining PageRank of a site was usually the root cause of the problem. That's what happened with your site. So the right way forward for people who still have problems is to send us a reinclusion report. http://www.google.com/support/bin/r...ster&contact_type=disappeared&submit=Continue and then put "Reinclusion request" in the subject line. Tell your site's name and describe any circumstances that you think might have led to a spam penalty, and why they no longer apply.
Yeah I can see his PM box getting flooded with people asking "oh, are you really googleguy? Could you help me with...?"
Ooh, I hope it is. =) I hate having to go search WMW for gems of insight. But, as fryman suggests, let's not go nuts, the guy must have plenty of work to do outside of these forums. Welcome GoogleGuy. =)
Yes, welcome to the forum where people are being themselves and are asking the questions that are really on people's minds
Hopefully Shawn can verify who it is. If it isn't GoogleGuy don't bother with WMW, he posts at SEW too. DigitalPoint is pretty much where it is today, so if it is GoogleGuy... bout time you got in here! Verify who you are with Shawn please.
I am almost sure it is just some clown fooling around. There have been many forums where people sign up as googleguy and start posting all kind of crap. If it really is him, he will find out soon that he will not be worshiped as he is at other forums... I wonder if he can take it
You don't need to worship, but respect won't go astray. Shawn won't let a pretender last long. So, assuming you are legit, Welcome.
Clowns don't get much respect... Googleguy wouldn't just jump in a forum like this without contacting the administrator first.
I had a look at his email ID when he just registered. It was . I believe google guy won't use such spammy email ID. I bet this is our beloved nintendo.
