Fair or not fair! look around man, live is a game. And probably 90% of the millionares out there, got ahead with some kind of trick or loophole in the system. If this guy made and makes a fortune good for him. Sooner or later he'll be banned, and then the next smart guy will come along! It always will be like that. And there probably will be tons of scripts like this poping up soon. I for sure will make one! ;-)
Just checking out Matt's blog to see if there's any semi-official feedback on this issue. I get a nice 403 instead. What the heck's happening over at Google?
Has anyone noticed the title tage he is using on his pages? "The search engine you trust". Is that a jab at Google or what?
Interesting to see that the site all the spam redirects to (welena.com) is banned from Google's Search & if you check out the alexa ranking you can see that site also jumped way up to under 2000 in the alexa rating back at the start of the year.
Yea I couldn't find any backlinks to the homepage anywhere... somebody has a pretty sweet grip on the Google algo it seems!
Man! This was the spammiest stuff I have ever seen! But it seems he lost his Adsense on the sites as some of you were speaking about earlier. But I dont get it, how can he actually get pages into google´s index without having any inbound links to his sites? All main pages should not be indexed just because it is a main page or.... ???
That makes sense, doesn't it? All main pages get a free trip into the index whether they have an unrelated site IBL or not. Exploit that with billions of new "main pages" and they all get a free ride, sans IBLs.
Most (all?) of the links present in the pages redirect to goclick.com. Is he getting paid by Goclick PPC to show their ads on such spammy pages?
when you 301 links from one domain to another google rewards the new domain with the link love but the 301'd links won't show up as backlinks in google
It has been reported that Google is now using the "Adsense" bot and sending that data directly to the index. If this guy could get a script to create these pages couldn't he find a way to get another computer just to cause the "Adsense" bot to check them because they thought a real visitor was trying to view the page?
here is explained step by step how he did it: http://anaaman.blogspot.com/2006/06/moldavian-blackhat.html
but there are other sites with not so many pages index but still causing a lot of problems, at least for my sites. here's some of them: 4716.hecu317ql.info 3257.f2xj3.info 1249.2m6nx.info 537.baefd7.info 3090.u12x82l54.info 1943.viq448.info 4048.ts5f825w.info 2557.knptho73.info 3254.2l7qd8e.info and the list goes on and on and on...... I can't know for sure but my hits are way down for my ketwords and if I search I get all these sites with "my keywords" AND my doamin name with scraped content from my sites!fing suxxx but telling Google about it, whic I have done over and over to no avail! They don't care about one guy, but maybe after reading this thread and being exposed all over the internet the last 24 hours they just MIGHT do something about it.....maybe? My guess it has been done in smaller scale for testing.... Russian Mafia
