Yea you should disable those links so that no one falls prey to their stupid exploit htmls. Everyone clicking will be closing and clicking for hours like poor Dom.

**Dominique** · 03-05-2005 06:43 PM

ok, this one has no pops.

xhttp://www.webcreationlabs.com/las_vegas_hotel

It has a description of gamesandcasino, but no link.

I don't understand the purpose of this.

Can someone explain to me what the point of this site is exactly?

**wufu110** · 03-05-2005 07:18 PM

I think the purpose of these sites are to lower your ranking in the SEs, in addition to getting YOUR visitors. I sometimes wonder if this is also done to further deter people from going to online gambling portals?

Maybe she could explain contextual marketing to everyone too?

I didnt check any of them out, but Id surmise that they are copying content because they are lazy and its the easiest way to create 1000+ sites very quickly. For the life of me I can not figure out why they would want to diplicate some of the content listed above - its of no use to them other than for the reason I described above.

Anyway - If anyone has proof that sites listed above are owned and operated by a program let us know so that we can take appropriate action(s).

No, it isn't. The purpose is to generate a huge quantity of content very quickly by scraping either Google or Yahoo results. There's no intent to lower your rankings. In fact, the use of no index,no follow means that the extra link popularity these sites might generate for your site is negated.

All they then do is add a couple of affiliate links to the top of the scraped results and trust that a large majority of the traffic to these pages goes to the sites that will make them money.

Hi again,

well I know for a fact that the programs advertised, tropez and that bunch; were approached about this affiliate's methods because of concern of getting banned for being duplicate sites; and the affiliate who brought this to their attention was told (basically - and please correct me if I state this wrong dear affiliate) but was told basically that nothing was going to be done about it.

You know I don't say much about a lot of the sneaky, underhanded stuff that goes on (at least as much as I'd like) and that would include if this was just about stealing traffic off the SEs which is trying to find your/my site, but when you're talking mass penalization because of duplication, that's BS and needs to be forced to an action IMHO.

while I do believe that google and other SEs will eventually start taking note of what content appeared where first: I think it will not happen until this has become a problem amongst more traditional niches that harbor less controversy.

By then a good many of you may be gone. (I say you because I don't get much free traffic anyway).

Its just total and complete underhandedness IMHO and that outrages me. Whether the intent is to get your sites banned for duplicated content; or some other more noble reason, the fact still remains that even a dummy like me knows that duplicated sites get banned; so its not like they did this without some kind of idea of what the repercussions might be.

A a new member and my first post, I seen your first site Captains Free Casino and I also see that there is massive spam down on the foot of your site, how can that be? Talk about cloaking and all that, I would clean that site up and then have complain about how other people are stealing content.

Well for one I think that your going overboard as I can scan any and everyone's sites out there on the net to see what you are using if it's cgi to pl modules and then report everyone. Here is the other thing you didn't type all of that on your front page now did you?

Why worry about everyone else just worry on your own spam issues of how you have this all down on the bottom of your site:

Hi mztrjim,
For your information I wrote all the text at the bottom of my index page. It is not hidden text and is on tarket with gambling keywords. Captains Free Casinos has been ranked high at Google for many years as most gambling portal webmasters know. Anyways, I am sure all the good people here at CAP have been enlighten by your first time post. As my friends know here at CAP I could say alot more to you. So my best advice is for you to crawl back into the hole from which you came.
