That whole keyword seems to be a mess.
Yes, looks like a big time spammer.
That whole keyword seems to be a mess.
Yeah, there are about two legitimate results in the top SERP. Everything else is scraped crap.
Yes, indeed. The scaped page, when clicked serves out page from spammer domain:
SEOEXP.INFO
After casinos777portal.com is rendered on your screen, click on the BACK button on your browser, and you will see reference to the SEOEXP.INFO domain.
I found at least 25 instances of this (different pages) this morning.
I’ve been reporting this domain to Google for the past month (registered in Moscow), but Google has done nothing to date, except to delete a few of these random scraped pages. This entire domain is spam, and I’m not quite sure why Google doesn’t ban any sites that are served from it.
P.S. Google Spam report this, and make mention of SEOEXP.INFO. Maybe it will help to hear this from someone else than myself.
Also, this spammer is now using BXIP.NET as a spam domain for serving out these pages.
Done.
I submitted it to google. The SERP is still badly spammed but not quite the mess it was yesterday. But it´s bad enough this can happen on one day. At this point the the spam is still firmly polluting the top two SERPs.
This site ( casinos777portal.com ) appears also to be promoting their ( cpays) newest property ( lvgrand ? ) How sad cpays have chosen to use them as a vehicle to promote this new casino when joe public affiliates arent even offered this option in their affiliates account ( ie no banners no link not even a mention of this casino)
Cpays if Im right and this is your newest property why are u giving this scraper site VIP treatment to promote them?
If im wrong and its not one of your properties I do apologise.
That´s very fishy. I couldn´t find this casino to save my life. LV grand and similar searches only yield one forum thread about a 20$ expired bonus. What´s yet more suspicious is the fact that you can´t click through the casino from casinos777portal.com but only download the software.sneaky2.gi
This BH Spammer is trying all sorts of variations on the theme, to see what works and what doesn’t. I’m sure the loser is probably part of this board, so I hope he gets arrested soon.
Well I think we are in the early stages of a process that will go down the road of e-mail spam. That was legal a long time until law enforcement in most industrialised countries woke up to the fact that it´s a major invasion of privacy and should be outlawed. In my book this applies for blackhat SEO as well and that will eventually be illegal as well. Right now it´s in the grey zone and assholes like the 777 guy are running rampant.
Goldfinger, it certainly can be controlled. The question becomes, in the case of Search Engine spamming, is it cost effective for the engines to fight the war, since they are the ones who need to control it. I am hoping that their view is long-term, and not short-term. Time will tell.
Thread is derailing but I don´t mind since I started it :1circling
What is a big concern for me is that google has a huge conflict of interest regarding all the adsense scraping where scrapers target a few keywords only. Google profits from this and is reluctant to stop it.
All the more reason though that google steps up it efforts to at least weed out the spam in those industries where it doesn´t stand to profit.
Yeah, Goldfinger, that is my point. They can easily be clouded by the short-term Adsense profits, which will abate, if they rid their indices of the spam. However, from a long-term perspective, the deluge of spam into their index could (and I think is already to a certain extent) turn people away from their products, namely, the use of their Search Engine. Hopefully, for their sake, they have enough foresight to see this. No one remains # 1 forever, unless they work hard, make smart business decisions, and take care of their customer base. Hopefully, they will see this, but truthfully, I have my doubts as to their intentions.

We´re on the same page here. Google needs to be clear wether they want to support webpages and publishers that provide value added to the surfing community or wether they want to fuel an ever growing gang of thugs that slowly but surely turns their index into a swamp. I fear that the short term reporting pressures of the stock market may force google to take a more short sighted strategy than would otherwise be the case. They also seem to follow this ungodly strategy of wanting to dominate every single segment of the web rather than focusing on their core competency which is their index.
