Google SEO violation... what would you do? - GoFuckYourself.com

Danger Mouse · 03-27-2007, 03:48 PM

So in the course of some standard SEO brainstorming here, we discovered that our biggest competitor for words is doing some things that very dramatically violate the Google terms. In other words, they are doing stuff that if Google noticed, they would be blacklisted.

So what is my move? Obviously it would benefit me for them to get blacklisted by Google. If I chose to, is there an avenue for me to "report" them?

Unless the offending material is on the actual website then you can't do much, google wont ban anybody for doorways and splogs since they have very little possibility of proving that the person operating website being linked to actually owns the black hat sites.

If you can see what they are doing they aren't doing it very well and it won't take Google long to catch up to them.

Now if they are cloaking what they are doing and forgot to turn off the no cache no archive, they have been bad and deserve a smack on the peepee!

I wouldn't snitch on just anyone, but these guys have done their fair share of fucking with me over the years. This is the nature of a back-and-forth exchange of zings.

All the offending material is on their primary domain and not very hard to find. Just go to the page vs. the Google cache and it is very obvious what they are doing.
