The google slap has begun again!!!

Hi All,

If you've been doing PPC you may have noticed that your QS has probably gone way down from say 8 to a 2 or even a 1. I have had this happen on 14 of my affiliate review sites that were generating 100s per month in profit.

here's what I've discovered.

1. If your site is a review site, then Google as well as MSN and yahoo are all working with the US goverment to basically bann these kinds of sites. There is a legislation coming out to that effect.

So what can you do?
Well in MHO
1. Forget frame redirect or direct linking - you should NOT be doing this anyway!
2. Create at least a 30 pager site - NOT REVIEW - just a nice information site.
3. Start thinking about a real business model of creating products to sell. This will be beneficial in the long run.

Create real sites with info - as much content as possible

 

Yep, I agree with you. I got mine slapped 2 days ago. I got 6 articles, site map, contact us, privacy policy, and terms and conditions pages. Apparently they just dun cut it for big G.

 

I am planning to sell something online, but I think affiliate programs easier, it seems now that I have to sell my own products?

 

thanks for the tips, I have also experienced slaps lately from Google...

 

Why does the US government wan to ban these kinds of sites? I can understand Google and Bing wanting to slap affiliate review sites, like those infamous "hosting review" sites, but why the US government?

 

the us government wants to ban flog sites which give fake reviews/testimonials
