Here’s the Latest Updates: Google’s Bad Backlinks
What do you think of the latest crackdown? Will this heavily affect your current SEO Strategy?
Nope, new ballgame now as I hear people are getting demoted in the the SE ranks shortly after getting letters.
Thats nothing new – when google discovers links that they don’t like pointing to your site, they discredit them and they no longer have value, and so your site drops as a result of loss in links. Nothing like a penalty.
It makes sense for this to happen after people get contacted and warned, because it means the site is in googles radar and either has been reviewed or is pending a human review. I think Rak hit the nail on the head.
I cant imagine google finding a way to penalize sites for bad linking practices, at that point it wouldnt even be about seo and links to your sites, it would be about destroying your competitors. If Im #11 I just need to nuke the top 10 and Im #1
then Im getting nuked and so is everybody else – it doesnt make sense and its not sustainable. Ignoring them is all they can do. But that’s just my humble opinion.
