Comment RSSGoogle Slapped? This Tool Will Help
Written by Pace LattinOctober 18, 2012 # 9:11 pm # Marketing Insights, Specials # 9 Comments
Seems a lot of content marketers have been slapped really hard by Google recently, driving a lot of niche blogs down in rankings. Part of this is because of poor quality link-spamming, which Google has taken serious with many updates that “punish” webmasters who are obviously using blackhat techniques to promote themselves. I was planning on talking to Chief Slapper, Matt Cutts while he was in Vegas, but actually forgot all about him and only remembered while he was on the plane to another event. Either way, he was nice enough to make up for my faux pas by releasing this great video which talks about the “Disavow Links” feature just released in Google. It’s basically a way to ensure that if you do have lots of spammy links that are hurting your rankings, you can now “disavow” them and have Google perhaps remove them from listing… and in theory, make it less likely you’ll still be under the Google slapin’. According to their blog.
If you’ve ever been caught up in linkspam, you may have seen a message in Webmaster Tools about “unnatural links” pointing to your site. We send you this message when we see evidence of paid links, link exchanges, or other link schemes that violate our quality guidelines. If you get this message, we recommend that you remove from the web as many spammy or low-quality links to your site as possible. This is the best approach because it addresses the problem at the root. By removing the bad links directly, you’re helping to prevent Google (and other search engines) from taking action again in the future. You’re also helping to protect your site’s image, since people will no longer find spammy links pointing to your site on the web and jump to conclusions about your website or business.

I see Google has made a lot of updates that affects not only those in business, but even regular users. Hope all their updates are reasonable enough.

With every update that google releases, there are always innocent sites that don’t participate in any black hat, but they still end up at the short end of the stick. Great post.

Google performs many updates time to time for preventing spam and filter search results. Google slapped is another effort of Google, it means, Google has deemed associated landing pages which have very poor quality content. This means you have to pay much more for your ad to appear at the position you’d like.

“Warning” Do not deal with the devil! You will never get your site back ! They just want to use the information that you will offer them to punish other sites. They are not about to reward you for admitting guilt. Stay away from gifts that are offered for they are not what they pensive.
