    PlugRush Adult Ad Network Might Harm Your Google Rankings

    I don't use PlugRush but saw many webmasters using it. Here is what Team Google has to say about it:

        I guess you didn't see that video, he doesn't mention plugrush, he explains cloaking.

        And this has nothing to do with plugrush specifically, as has been said many times before.
        But.... I pulled out...

          Hmm. Were you using something like PlugRush? You might look into mobile redirects.

            obvious from the thread that google employees believe that the way plugrush does mobile redirects is considered cloaking and thus why plugrush sites are being deindexed.

              Yea I just saw that, he states that Mobile redirects are bad (well that it should be looked into) - not PlugRush specifically. There are several threads on that topic here.

              Blind redirecting mobile traffic or any traffic is high risk, every webmaster should know this. If you have turned off mobile redirects you should be fine.

                Hi Dimita

                It looks like your site sometimes does a redirect for users, but not for Googlebot. This is considered cloaking, and against our Webmaster Guidelines.

                Cheers

                  Yes. As I said. It's about redirection. Not about showing banners from some specific advertisement program.

                      it still blows my mind how many people cant follow the basics of SEO, then get upset or cant understand when they get penalized for shit thats been banned for 10 years. cloaking was one of the original blackhat tricks.

                      that mobile redirect probably made you good money, hope that trade off was worth the loss in rankings now.

                              Then should apply to all the trafficholder, trafficshop sites, but I see several of these still up in google rank (or not?)

                                As far as I understood that whole mobile redirect thing correctly, it's not mainly about redirecting mobile surfers...the problem seems to be sending them to a broker and each visitor gets directed to a random different site. Visitor A gets redirected to xxx.com, google bot to yyy.com which is cloaking for G.

                                Sending all your mobile traffic to ONE mobile optimized site shouldn't be a problem at all.

                                  "Matt mentioned "PlugRush" -- which is a widget that adds javascript to your pages. It seems to cloak the sexy pictures that appear on your pages. For example, users like me might see one version (with the sexy pictures) but Googlebot is not shown them. Google wants to see what you're showing me and everyone else who visits the page. You will want to remove the widget from being used and it should stop triggering the cloaking issue."

                                  Are trafficholder, trafficshop and so on work with the same method? Don't know it as I'm not working with them.

                                  In general that would mean, don't use javascript ads as google bot isn't able to access it.

                                    trafficholder, trafficshop etc. does not use javascript widgets, but if you click link X once brings to site Y, next click to same X brings to site Z then site a, b, c, it is a skimmed blind redirect traffic.

                                      So big G would call it cloaking, too. Another topic in this google forum thread was, don't put too many ads on your site.

                                      In short: Don't sell your mobile traffic, direct them to a mobile optimized site. Don't put scripted ads on your site as the bot can't access it (no more geo ads for example) and preferrably as less ads as possible...otherwise we show more news sites talking about porn instead of your porn sites.

                                      So big G tries everything to decrease our earnings as much as they can. Probably they are sitting on a adsense for adult solution

                                        Nop that wont be called cloaking,as both user and google bot will see same eventualy,cloaking would be when user see something what bot doe'snt see in any case.Unless google specifically says how random link is bad that cannot be considered bad.And this would'nt affect just sites which sell blind/skim traffic,it would affect as well all trade powered sites.And many of them stil rank good even overanking nontrading tube sites.
