Has any one of you guys had a chance to deal with anything like that before:
http://de.search.yahoo.com/siteexplorer/search?p=http%3A%2F%2Fdaspoker.com&bwm=p&bwmf=a&bwms=p&b=351
daspoker.com is my domain that ranks rather well in german google – and i have just spotted this. all the affs i know have never seen anything like that before – and i have a suspicion this has been done on purpose, someone is trying to damage my efforts and push the site downwards in the se’s. after all, all those bloody subpages are being counted as my own!
i would really appreciate some advice as i am completely out of my depth here. any ideas how to counter this freaking spam anyone…?
Hi,
I’m no SEOer but I think this is common practice by assholes which SEs SHOULD ban every site they have using this practice.
best of luck. wish I could help more.
I can say that these people will get their due. maybe not online…… but when you practice dirty dealings …..your life will shit on you. simple Karma.
what’s funny is these people make their own lives miserable and never seem to “get it”.

Well thanks a lot bb1webs, that is not much of help to me in this case though
As much as i agree with you and the kind of karma you spread you tend to get back… I need to find out more how to counter those damn spammers!
Hi again,
really wish I could help more.
I’m just not knoweldgeable enough to do so.
best of luck

I have never paid much attention to yahoo, but do they have a spam complaint function like google?
First off you need to complain to Yahoo about this!
This is a blackhatter using your domain and it’s definitely not a good thing.
well any idea how do i complain to yahoo about it? i have never heard of a report-spam tool such as g*0gle uses…
and im affraid the fact that g*0gle has simply not yet refreshed its serps is the only reason why you cannot see in there (its well known that yahoo does it much more often)…
first off, there’s a file on your server that they’re using to do this. Look for a php file in your root that doesn’t belong there.
2nd, they could be doing this to get links or to knock you down (google bowling).
If you need more help, feel free to PM me. I’ve been down this road
fonz…… you’re as cool as your name
(google bowling).
Thats why I love this place, you learn something new everyday
Google bowling is nasty.
It happened to me a year or two ago when I was too outspoken about blackhatters.
Tens of thousands of sites (literally) appeared under my domain.
They didn’t succeed, but it sure was annoying. Google cleaned it up…

was it a file, a hole or an XSS attack? I like to keep notes on these things in case they happen to me.
look at the .htaccess in the root and in the pokerberichte folder.. somthing is allowing %22 (dbl quote) urls to be inserted.
first thing though is look closely at all the files in that folder! sort by date

Frankly, I have no idea.
We just tightened security on the server and I reported to google daily, giving all the site locations I could find. After a week or so google started cleaning the stuff up as soon as it appeared and after some 4 weeks or so it stopped.
It was a massive attack, but it had absolutely no affect on G&C.
They also inflated my number of backlinks incredibly, to hundreds of thousands. That got cleaned up too, but it still to this day shows way more backlinks than are actually there.
While google never answered me, I could always follow the results of my complaints. I have to say they did a decent job and were responsive in their way.
I guess they don’t like googlebowling either
