    Negative SEO

    Someone has spammed over 1300 different forums with links to my site, Debauchery.com. I am gonna post just a few links here and suggest that you look to see if any of your sites are spammed here too. I found these links using Google's new feature in WM tools where you can download the latest links. This feature actually shows links from as far back as 2004 for my site.

    Anyway, any thoughts, suggestions, relevant comments on this would be appreciated. It has been suggested to me that one of the bigger porn companies has a staff that does this to hurt the competition in the serps. I don't know but am throwing this out there for everyone to consider.

    Following are just a few of the most recent ones, to see the link to my site just view the source and search for debauchery.com.

    http://www.teorijapalmera.ru/forum/v...619&view=print

    http://www.emschoppingblock.com/foru...95d64&start=30

    http://www.basementstudiosgc.co.uk/f...054&view=print

    With over 1300 of these, I doubt seriously that they are "organic" links that surfers put up. The wording is very weird too...I mean "Billy Joel Hey Girl" is the anchor text linking to my index page on the second one above...wtf. No surfer would post that.

    Thoughts?

          Not a lot you can do. Focus on your own seo work and ignore the negative seo.

          Having those links removed could even hurt you (link velocity), but there's no way to know for sure what will happen.

                  A link removal company. They have those now-a-days? That's funny.

                  I do agree that there is not a lot that I can do.

                  If you notice, there are a lot of other sites with links there and I was hoping that some of those folks would notice this as well. I have no clue as to what we can all do about this, but I figured better minds than mine might get involved and come up with something.

                      You do nothing and btw, these links won't hurt your site

                          Antonio, if they won't hurt my site why did someone go to such great lengths to create the links? This is not a new occurrence, I've seen these links from as far back as 2005.

                              If you use Google's webmaster tools, you can explain to them what happened to reconsider your ranks:

                                      Google is pretty smart... they won't hurt your site. If that were the case, a lot of people would be wiping out their competition using that method.

                                                  trevesty, I hope that you are right. However, I am curious as to why this has been going on for 7 years. That seems an awful long time for someone to keep up something like this.

                                                      Regardless, if its not for phrases you are ranking for or concerned about, its meaningless.

                                                                  If you download it as a CSV you can search the spreadsheet for the word "forum" and it will tell you how many are there. If there are a lot you can do a Find, Replace All, and go to "format" and change the font to bold and change the font size to 12 or something. This will make them stand out...you can easily scroll down and look for trends.

If there are a lot you can do a Find, Replace All, and go to "format" and change the font to bold and change the font size to 12 or something. This will make them stand out...you can easily scroll down and look for trends.

And as far back as I go, I don't see any forum type links. Sounds like someone did an xrumer run on your site. At one point the SE's did penalize bad neighbourhoods, in today's SEO I'd think that the worst thing a search engine would do is ignore bad links like that. Otherwise as someone pointed out, it would be used to take down the competition.

So how are your rankings? If they're still good those links dont have an effect otherwise you would have lost your rankings by now, seeing those links go way back.

For the past 20 months every 60 days it shoots up in the serps, stays for about a week, then drops down. When it is down it gets decent se traffic but when it is up it gets really good traffic.

                                                                              In Reconsideration requests, Google has said that the site does not have a manual action on it. Hence, it has to be some sort of algo filter. And it is like clockwork.

At least he did to me on your behalf, claiming you guys had some relationship (partners, best friends or something). I can't really remember but I'm pretty sure I bought links on your site quite a few years ago in 08 or so.

                                                                                              Anyway, he is a liar, a thief and a scammer that has ripped off most of the larger link buyers/sellers in adult, including several of the largest programs.

                                                                                              As soon as I noticed your domain the other day when you made a post, I began to wonder how close you were with him as quite a few people were hunting for him not too long ago and he's also the kind of person who attracts this sort of behavior or that would do it thinking he's going to make your site fail (he's a sociopath but also not real bright).

I've owned that site since I came up with the name in 1996. In the old days, I did have employees but they were all friends that live here in town that I've known for years, but even they didn't sell links. If someone tried to sell you a link on my site they must have been a scammer, but they had no affiliation with me.

For the past 20 months every 60 days it shoots up in the serps, stays for about a week, then drops down. When it is down it gets decent se traffic but when it is up it gets really good traffic.
                                                                                                                  ive seen this happen to a number of sites, this is not terribly abnormal. try to figure out what keywords you are getting the increased traffic on and improve your bounce rate & time on site. maybe you will stay up there longer the next time. i would also look at changing titles, or content to effect how you show for these searches to see if you can also increase your CTR which might also help keep you on top.

                                                                                                                                  never use the disavow link tool when it goes live. It's another tool from big G to get as many information as possible; and a great way to fuck up sites.

However, one bee sting won't kill most people...but a lot of bee stings will. Negative SEO like this, by itself, may not hurt your site but who would want someone doing something like this to their site?

                                                                                                                                      I posted this mainly for information for other folks and to open an intelligent discussion about both these, and to see if anyone had anything else relevant to bring up. I do find it odd that whoever has done this has been doing it for 7 years now and that they continue to do it.

                                                                                                                                          It is not just the keywords that I get traffic for, it is the amount of keywords. My site normally gets traffic for just under 2000 different keywords each day...then it will shoot up to around 6000 during that time frame. Also, phrases like "free porn videos" my site will be around 14th (it used to be in the top 10, sometimes the top 5), then it will drop down to #250.

                                                                                                                                          That said, the site still places top 10 for tons of good keywords, often #1.

                                                                                                                                          Google has said that this is not a manual action (penalty). So something is throwing a filter on the site, in the algorithm, that lasts for 60 days then expires, then is reapplied within about a week.

                                                                                                                                          Why...you've seen this before?

And pointing to many examples.

If that were the case, a lot of people would be wiping out their competition using that method.

                                                                                                                                                                                          Of course it exists, but there's not a lot you can do about those links and stuff or to prevent it from happening again. Besides, real bh negative seo goes a lot further and is a lot more evil than a few xrummer blasts.

                                                                                                                                                                                          The best way to handle it is the same way you handle all other seo related risks: don't put all of your eggs in one basket.

                                                                                                                                                                                          Instead of building one site and hoping for the best and begging Big G to reconsider when they drop/penalize your site, just build more sites and hide who owns them.

                                                                                                                                                                                          A swarm of mosquitoes is harder to hit than an elephant.

                                                                                                                                                                                                  Django, my site has over 1300.

                                                                                                                                                                                                  Google considers a penalty to be a manual action. If something causes the algorithm to not rank your site as high as it has been, Google does not consider that a penalty. Any webmaster that has enjoyed years of top rankings, however, does consider it a penalty whether it is manual or algorithmic, when their site falls.

                                                                                                                                                                                                  That said, if someone else causes your site to fall, even if it is algorithmic, Google should at least know about it. One webmaster reporting it won't make much noise, however if a group of webmasters approaches Google they could change their algorithm.

                                                                                                                                                                                                  I am not convinced that those links have hurt my site, however it is suspicious that whoever is doing this does it to numerous sites and continues to do it to this day. Normally, people will not continue an action (especially over a period of years) without some return in their investment of that action.

                                                                                                                                                                                                  I suspect that there are quite a few websites that have fallen, and that this could be part of the problem at the very least, and that the owners of those websites are either under the impression that it was something that they themselves did that caused their sites' fall, or just algorithmic changes that they have yet to keep up with/discover/whatever.
