how can you tell if google thinks an inlink from site is bad ie : bad neighborhood and will penalize?

TheSquealer · 02-25-2012, 06:37 PM

Before the idiots chime in with total nonsense

1) - You cant know. Only Google knows. They update their own search algo's 100s of times per year

2) - "Bad neighborhood" was a reference to a page linking to blatant spam - i.e. a parasite page on tumblr about new homes or parks in new york linking out 1000 times to nothing but viagra, cialis etc etc etc.

3) - The more you worry about the nuances of SEO (most of which are typically perceived or myth) - the more you are going to fuck yourself. build. link. build.

DaCaptain · 02-25-2012, 06:37 PM

If the site is old and has a greybar that is one indicator. If you google the url and it does not show up that is another, unless the site is very new. If it flags your anti virus software, that is a third.

PR doesn't say anything about "bad neighborhoods". PR is quite simply this:
what weighted percentage of all links on the web point to this page? The weighting being the PR of the linking page, divided by the number of links on the page, recursive.

Though PR is often expressed as a exponential value, PR is actually a floating point number between between zero and one - a percentage. The sum PR of all pages is by definition 1.00.

PR itself cannot be made complex by adding all kinds of special cases (like bad neighbirhoods) because of they did that, it would no longer sum to 1.00 and the recursion would crash.

The question is "how can you tell if Google thinks..."... not "Does Google know..." The simple answer is you can't know what Google "thinks", other than knowing your site is banned. A site dropping from #3 to 900 can be for a few reasons.

Further, my point was that this stuff is totally irrelevant to someone if they aren't doing shady shit on a large scale and knowingly pushing the limits. 99% of these questions are about people worrying about nothing, myth and hype, who should just be building their sites and going about their business.

google does not penalize you for inlinks regardless, the WORST case scenario is it doesn't do you any good.

if google did "penalize" a site for inlinks , bad guys would simply linkbomb enemies to have their serps drop

I think it does affect domains not so established. Have a relatively new domain hitting some keywords? watch them drop by buying 50 shitty links.

anexsia · 02-26-2012, 02:36 AM

Ugh this shit happened to me...I had a blog that was making sales like crazy when I first made it and Google was sending nice traffic...then suddenly all Google traffic went to ZERO...it's still indexed but on Google Webmaster Tools it says "No Impressions" so now I'm only getting traffic from Bing and Yahoo. I can't understand why, it's like all of my other blogs and this is the first blog I have ever had this happen too. I'm hoping it ends up getting traffic from Google again.

Are you fucking retarded or what? The question was very simply stated "how can you tell if Google thinks..."

The only answer to that question is "you can't". Only Google knows what Google "thinks". Only Google knows what Google does with that information from day to day. The fact that a 3rd party knows who is being spammed has nothing to do with what Google "thinks" about it and how they treat that information from day to day as they update and tweak. Making the argument that a 3rd party is aware of it has nothing to do with what Google thinks about it and what Google does with that information.

Odd... i always assumed English was your first language. You seem pretty fluent most of the time.

TheSquealer · 02-26-2012, 07:35 AM

And as porno jew said.. you can blast peoples sites with spam links for a phrase you want and cause them to drop as long as that site is fairly weak to begin with. You're not going to make pornhub.com drop out of the SERPs for "porn" - but a newer site with few inbound links are easy prey.

Give me a domain that you own, the phrases it ranks well for and i'll first make it drop out the the SERPs for those phrases, then i'll get it banned. Since you "know" you shouldn't mind and it has to be your domain. It has to have traffic. Since you "know"... you have nothing to worry about.

Whether you think it makes sense or not is irrelevant to the fact that your wrong. A site being spammed is a site being spammed in their eyes - whether you are doing it, whether you are paying a service or someone else to do it or whether someone is doing it to you... and they care about relevant search results, not your personal problems with your own website.

Someone getting their page blasted with spam links... accounts for what % of Trillions of pages indexed? hmmm.... .0000000X% - Trust me, they aren't too worried about what anyone's idea of "fair" is.

No point in arguing with you. I do this for a living. I offered to prove it to you. I know because its what I do and I have to deal with this constantly. It's not a secret in the SEO/Blackhat community, its a fact that every one has to deal with.

This has been the standard behavior for quite a few years now, it used to be that they would drop for a couple weeks and bounce up higher than before so it was no big deal...not they will drop out of sight and not come back for a couple months or more. I started in adult online in 98. I have dedicated boxes running several copies of xrumer and scrape box and some other link building tools. I know quite well what will happen when I push the "go" button.

Google doesn't know who is causing the links to be built. That's the flaw in your "logic" and why its irrelevant.

Give me your best domain and i'll happily cause it to drop out of the SERPs for you. GFY.com is not a low authority site. Plus, i'm not going to waste my time trying compiling new lists of clean link sources, testing them, cleaning them and running them to build 10k+ links a day just to hurt gfy to prove a point to you. I will do it with your domains.

The bullet points for you:

Yes, a sudden volume of weak links to a low authority site (which GFY is not - but probably still could be affected) will cause that site to drop in ranking for the phrases targeted. Though I haven't played with this much in the last 6 months, typically you need many 100s-1000s per day and usually after a day or two, its gone for a couple months or more.
Yes, Google is much better at identifying spam links today than in years past and devaluing them
No, Google doesn't care WHO caused those links to happen
Yes, give me a domain of yours and I'll happily make it disappear from the SERPs for you for its primary phrases
Yes, I am talking from practical experience
No, you are not talking from practical experience

I guess there's no such thing as an over optimisation penalty then, and it doesn't matter if you use your target keyword in every single anchor you ever get.

"doesn't matter" != "google will not penalize you"

Google will not PENALIZE you for having multiple duplicate anchors, you just wont do as well as an identical site without identical anchors most likely. Not because you got penalized but because google may see the identical anchors as meaningless.

I keep asking you to give me YOUR prized domain so I can make it tank for you and disappear from the SERPs for a few months for each phrase you are ranking for. I'll make sure your domain gets banned. Not a problem at all.

BTW.. saying you have several years on me with SEO as a qualifier, is a bit absurd when you're making such obviously wrong claims about something which everyone in agressive/Blackhat SEO has to deal with day in and day out.

TheSquealer · 02-26-2012, 07:04 PM

And by the way smart guy - links being devalued and not helping your site in the SERPs (or helping less) has NOTHING to do with a page/site being penalized for link spam at the same time. Two very different things.

I see, so if someone were to suddenly add a ton of links to your site all with your target keyword and that renders all your previous inbound links meaningless, thus knocking your site out of the serps, that's not actually harming your site in any way? Got it now.

I have been blackhatting several years before you ever came online. BEFORE google was king. You brought up seniority as a qualifier.

Hundreds of gfy'ers have used my blackhat tools, trust me i have experience.

Simple fact is this "theory" has been floated around for years , and in all that time not one person has actually proven it.

pick a site and show us your proof , most of my sites are already running blackhat projects and would not qualify for tests anyways , but lets pick a common enemy then.

buy.xxx ranks #1 for "buy xxx" and is new so test your theory there , we will wait your results. if it quickly slips down you are right , if it stays top 5 you are wrong..

it does not render other inbound links meaningless, pay attention.. it isn't a hard concept to follow. shitty inbound links are meaningless to google, they do not cause a penalty

SITE #1 has 6 inbound links from quality sites and 80000 shitty spam site links

SITE #2 has 5 inbound links from quality sites and ZERO shitty spam links

site #1 will rank higher

if there was a penalty it would rank lower.. if you want to prove me wrong , try it yourself on a googlism

Give me a domain of yours to prove it on. 3rd time i'm asking now. Not an issue. I'll scrape up some proxies, build some lists and hit you with 20K+ links per day using comment spam (mostly drupal, blogengine), i'll hit you with a few k profile links from Expression engine forums, forum posts from general forums and another 5-10k from image boards for a few days for your phrases and those pages will be done. No secret formula. Shit applies to everyone. Weak sites with large volumes of sudden spam links get kicked out of serps for their phrases for 2-3 months, assuming the domain doesn't get banned.

The fact that you continue to insist its not true when it so obviously is, illustrates that you have no real experience in blackhat seo.

I have seen for new sites ranking for a term getting a few hundred a day on key terms. I want to get place 12 to place 1 and tried to capitalize by buying a bunch of links with that key word and it then disappears. I then use allinanchor and sure enough, still at spot 12 or better.

I'm not familiar with 20K links per day, I would think it would destroy a newer site.

So you have nothing to lose. Just give me a new-ish, weak-ish domain of yours and the phrases it ranks in the top 10 for... i'll do my thing and you'll be proven correct and there will be no change whatsoever in your rankings for those pages and their phrases.

You're making all kinds of claims without proof. I've been offering to prove it to you. Not sure how that is so hard to understand.

If you can get your own site banned in 48 hrs with link spam, i really fail to understand how you think someone else can't. Google doesn't know who is spamming the site. They only see the links, source sites, velocity and volume.

This is where peoples true colors start to show

When to make your point you start assuming or posting false information.

If you wanted to know my FACTUAL response you would simply ask me. Blinded by your inability to prove something , you have resorted to distorting the truth ( aka lying )

I have already explained his situation above, this happens naturally. If you want to find out the TRUTH simply do your own test as i have done many times over the years. You don't prove something by assuming it.

In beaners situation in order to test the validity of his theory , you would buy 2 domains and do one thing with one and another with the other domain and compare results..

He has not done this , therefore he can only assume what happened, just as you have done. I have actually tested this theory so i know the result. You obviously have not

perhaps you should.

You're not going to make pornhub.com drop out of the SERPs for "porn" - but a newer site with few inbound links are easy prey. __________________ .

So yes I also believe you can hurt a weak enough competitor with bad incoming links. __________________ * Selling my adult sites. Email: furaldbullon48aol9com - Replace 48 with @ and 9 with .

They update their own search algo's 100s of times per year 2) - "Bad neighborhood" was a reference to a page linking to blatant spam - i.e. a parasite page on tumblr about new homes or parks in new york linking out 1000 times to nothing but viagra, cialis etc etc etc. 3) - The more you worry about the nuances of SEO (most of which are typically perceived or myth) - the more you are going to fuck yourself. build. link. build. __________________ .

If you google the url and it does not show up that is another, unless the site is very new. If it flags your anti virus software, that is a third. __________________ Email me at jeff at rouge dot net

I can't understand why, it's like all of my other blogs and this is the first blog I have ever had this happen too. I'm hoping it ends up getting traffic from Google again.

TheSquealer BANNED Industry Role: Join Date: Oct 2004 Location: In Your Head Posts: 25,145	And by the way smart guy - links being devalued and not helping your site in the SERPs (or helping less) has NOTHING to do with a page/site being penalized for link spam at the same time. Two very different things. __________________ . Yes, fewer illegal immigrants working equates to more job opportunities for American citizens.

bean-aid So Fucking Banned Industry Role: Join Date: Jun 2011 Location: the land of woke sleuths Posts: 16,493	I have seen for new sites ranking for a term getting a few hundred a day on key terms. I want to get place 12 to place 1 and tried to capitalize by buying a bunch of links with that key word and it then disappears. I then use allinanchor and sure enough, still at spot 12 or better. I'm not familiar with 20K links per day, I would think it would destroy a newer site.

So buy xxx as a search term to sabatoge is different then horny gals on a domain called hotswedishchicks.com.
