Reporting blackhat sites

Discussion in 'Google' started by terryuk, Feb 20, 2007.

    I have a new client that I am working for, i just noticed that there is tons of blackhat SEO's going for this keyword with parasite hosting (if that's what you call it). It would make life much easier, if i were able to report these to Google and get them deindexed.

    Any ideas where i can report this?

    Thanks in advance! :)

    This should get you there: http://www.google.com/contact/spamreport.html

    If offers the following checkboxes (among other things)
    • Type(s) of problem (check all that apply):
    • Hidden text or links
    • Misleading or repeated words
    • Page does not match Google's description
    • Cloaked page
    • Deceptive redirects
    • Doorway pages
    • Duplicate site or pages
    • Other (specify)
    and has a field for additional comments

    Though, I must say, that for how WONDERFUL google is for helping me find things on every other site on the net, finding stuff ON Google ofter proved very difficult. It's like they want a world of full disclosure but want to keep their own business a secret...which, I guess is like most people *shrug*

    Just don't get upset when the sites do not dissapear. Google engineers like to do things algorithmlicly so they tend to use your input to tweak the knobs rather than to machette individual web sites.

    I don't think you can get them deindexed... but you can try.
