I love Google, BUT...

[Hope]

I found this lovely bit of spam on Google. It is currently #8 for the term "Search Engine Optimization Consultant"

http://www.aaa-search-engine-systems.com/

This is the most obvious bit of spam I have seen in ages. I could not believe the amount of keyword stuffing. I clicked on one of the links and I was forwarded. It wouldn't let me back to the original page. Uuuuggghhhh.

I hope this current Google dance cleans this one up.

That is what I call a very bad 'doorway' page as well. That is a doorway in every sense of the word:

www.getplacement.com

Same exact site as your post Hope. Sheesh, is that bad.

I've got a question. Where in the H to these types of sites get their information from? Who is telling them to spam like this? Ya know, there is spam, then there is SPAM.

Where do they learn this? Why? That is not even a good spam. :eek:

I would truly love to hear from the owner of those two domains as to where they heard this from. I hope they notice the clicks coming from here and post to tell us what they are doing and where it comes from.

getplacement.com owns the code used to create our highly optimized entry pages and reserves the right to place our copyright on all entry pages. In the event that code is changed on the pages upon delivery to the client the guarantee is void immediately.2. Our Proprietary HVP technology - We have created a totally dynamic and unique system for gaining search engine placement with the major search engines. We have moved past the use of doorway pages to a more robust and complete search engine optimization system. The HVP technology is founded on the concept that search engines index web sites better than simple optimized doorway pages. It is the goal of the search engine to allow the best sites to rise to the top of their index and they use software robots (also called spiders) to index and rank web sites. We have spent years creating systems to study the way these robots and spiders work. This knowledge has been used to create our new HVP system.

4. Secondary Marketing Domains - Since our system builds perfectly optimized web sites we host them on secondary marketing domains. The domains that we create work with your site to produce traffic directly to your site. When someone clicks on the link from the search engines they are taken directly to your site. The HVP sites work in the background and only the search engines see these optimized sites.Surely sounds like cloaking to me.

HVP = Hidden Valueless Pages

In the six or more years that I've been doing this, I can't say that I've run across this site. They mention that they've been doing this for years, I would think I'd run across them every now and then.

I promote the purchase of hyphenated domains. Never really thought about double hyphens!

If you have the Google Toolbar installed, right click the page and click on backwards links. Look at the sites that come up and then click on a link. They all go to the above domain but display thier clients content.

All of these are under the umbrella of toptennow.com.

sheesh. Google will have a field day viewing this. That is cloaking in it's most sinister form. If they really believe they will get away with this stuff, they certainly have another thing coming. Real crappy and real scum.

I have never heard of them either. Very funny that is.

I noticed them about a month ago. They have lots and lots of these lovely pages.

Hey, the best place to do a spam complaint is
http://www.google.com/contact/spamreport.html

It's hard to read every forum, but somebody definitely reviews all of those.

Best wishes,

LOL...I have the perfect way to clean up Google. They should make Doug the Captain of the Spam Patrol. Just send all those spam reports to Doug and he'll go in and nuke 'em!

Imagine, a spam free Google. Ahhhhhh

(And Doug could maybe get a new cap out of it!)
