SEO Inc off the map?

It's not surprising to me. Esp with the new algorithm that google recently put out. One bad neighborhood and "watch out." Banned!

 

no kidding, they have hundreds of sites they randomly link to. Had they spent some time here reading a few horror stories and applied the reasons why to themselves, this could have been prevented. I don't think they were hand selected even though I could be wrong about that. But I do know that with what I have seen in the past 2-3 months it makes perfect sense that they got canned. The reason they didn't earlier is because of the many strong links they had coming in but they were no longer significant enough to carry the weight of a link farm with "cheap cell phone services" sites in the which themselves are linkfarmers and got banned. It's all about who you hang with,
if I am a real estate agent selling beach houses in La Jolla or Del Mar, I will not have 80 out of 100 pages on my brochure featuring fixer uppers in El Cajon, Chula Vista and National City ( San Diegans will understand ).

I think everyone does it discreetly in one way or another.
It about how you do it , not if you do it !!

Thats what surprises me. SEO Inc are the top 3 out there and probably the most experienced. I guess the third party company must have done it without their prior approval or knowledge. I really don't think they would do something like that considering that they have a great reputation in the SEO industry and have been around for so long.

 

here's a really good discussion going on w/the ceo of seo inc over there http://www.seoinc.com/seo-forum/sea...inking/non-reciprocal-link-exchange/12-0.html

 

dont show Ferret , he will go in there and say "I love you guys you are my heroes"

Just kiddin, bro

 

They are trying to blame everything on getting their content duplicated
http://www.seoinc.com/seo-forum/viewtopic.php?p=343#343
If a site with 50k backlinks gets penalized for being duplicated by a few, then how come DMOZ.org or Amazon.com are not being put thru the same type of filter?

btw isn't this guy http://www.seoinc.com/seo-forum/viewprofile/-search-engines-web/83.html a member here as well?http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?p=83371#post83371

 

He also said that some company in India was repsponsible for the link exchange campaign without his authorization. What I don't understand is how can a company start trading hundreds or thousands of links in your name without you ever noticing it? I find that hard to believe.

 

I got a guy in Karachi doing the same thing. I pay him 2 bucks for an appeared link to my site from relevant link partners. He does all the e-mailing etc.. Only difference is I also link back to the people that accept the link exchange. SEO Inc. very clearly paid the company in India to do their dirty work for them and tried to go triangular and got screwed. Simple as that.

 

right: and THAT is what got them banned, not ppl copying their conent. How can sites with 10 BLs take down one with 60k links?

 

That can't be good for business.

OH BTW, I'm a few spots ahead of them on MSN.

 

I've been waiting to finish my post there maybe I should do it now. I was waiting for someone else to post stuff.

 

None of you guys have any clue why they got kicked out, so stop pretending

I wouldn't say they are my heros but they are one of of the companies who learned how to optimize from.

Oh yeah when you guys give bad rep you should really put some type of funny comment on it.

They are nubmer 2 so unless your site is lilengine....

 

FOr "SEO" but it's not a big deal it's only MSN.

 

hehe ... msn is not a big deal yet, but anything helps

 

That's my point it's just fun stuff. LOL

 

Latest News:

SEOINC is sending out case and desist letters to the owner of this blog .... the funny thing is, he lives in germany.

here's the letter

 

I dont see anything wrong with saying a site has been penalized by google when it clearly has been penalized, just stating the facts.

 

NOT TRUE, what if the servers were down when the spider called? What of there is a technical hitch? what if a database got corrupted? I am not defending SEO inc here, but a while ago I se t up a bounced checque website where people could search to see if there had been bounced cheques from people/businesses. A bank messed up and returned a cheque wroingly. We were actually breaking the law then by displaying this info.

You do have to tread carefully. especially when dealing with spammers.. oh sorry alleged spammers

 

Google does not remove pages from its index just because the server was down when it spidered. It needs to be down for substantial period for them to remove it.

 

not to mention they still display a PR7 on the homepage, but when you try and look at the cached copy you get 'Your search - cache:http://www.seoinc.com - did not match any documents. '

i think there's a little more to their problem than crashing servers, technical glitches or database problems..
