Microsoft looks to foil Web spammers
 

Researchers at Microsoft have developed a tool to scrub search engines of major Web sites that pollute search results and ultimately help clean the Web of spam.

google microsoft and yahoo all basically encourage the worst type of spam in my opinion, that is the buying of previously owned / expired domains for the sole purpose of filling with alternative content ( usually adult and pharm ) , i realise alot of people make money doing this , but if the se's didnt reward these guys you wouldn't see so many irrelevant domains .

It always irks me when i see something like a school domain or a cancer research domain that goes expired and ends up being filled with porn.. this would be fairly easy to spot/catch but they dont, because the more irrelevent the results , the more relevent the ads seem..

Guess why google has never tried this approach very well ... because if you found relevent results you wouldnt use adwords/adsense and they wouldnt make $$$

removing spam is impossible.

well msn listings suck ass and i doubt they'll get better in the near future

fuck MCS....

MSN has been kind to me. I'm glad their algorithm sucks, because I cant SEO to save my life. Stupid shit seems to work with them. Yahoo too :thumbsup

yeah msn is so backwards lol

awesome!

Rarely they will succeed

Actually there are laws against using domains that are not adult to sell porn.

Yeah that poor Microsoft I think they may go out of business soon lol

why do you think is Bill retiring, that dude is dead broke, he'll soon pop-up on GFY asking for dontaions, mark my word

Hmmmmmm..... pie in the sky sure tastes good. Call me a skeptic and a cynic but I think as long as there's $$$ to be made in "stuffing" search engines with spam people will outthink and outdo Microsoft and whoever else. Just my opinion. Don't hate. :2 cents: :thumbsup

please enlighten me on these "laws"

i hope they can do that.... but i think that's part of web ads

wiki's are the new SE's
