Hahaha do you seriously think he's gonna give up the keywords these guys are making money off.

Spamming sites still worked pre-hummingbird and infact it works even better now.

Even Negative SEO works just as well. Have a competitor you don't like? Give him 100k blog comments with "Buy Viagra" and suddenly he will be de indexed in 3 months or less.

I think half the reason she quit is that SEO is so damn unpredictable now. You can make a spammy site and might rank or might get de-indexed. But at the same time you can make a 100% whitehat site and it probably won't even rank and can get just as easily de-indexed as a blackhat spam site.

You need to read up on BlackHatWorld a bit more Mr Cutts.

Hey Matt G, I appreciate the suggestion but I already read quite a bit of BHW.

P.S. I enjoyed reading about that Twitter stuff from 2-3 years ago.

One of my sites was a victim of the negative SEO trick, I kept getting warnings from Google (Site violates Google's quality guidelines) that there were links to my site that violated their guidelines.

It didn't matter what I said in my reconsideration request to explain I had no knowledge or control over it (I've no interest in spammy link sharing or buying links), I kept getting similar canned responses.

I gave up in the end.

In fact, there are many spamming sites in non-English searches. If you like these info,I can mail you some.
