Hi everybody, I can't find much on the internet giving more specific insight to this point Google considers a page a doorway page. Having multiple domain names or pages targeted at specific regions or cities that funnel users to one page This can be taken in two ways and is confusing to me...

Your favorite SEO duck is having a hard time while waiting for the rankings to kick in on my projects and the money isnt coming in yet. I have to pay my bills and have resorted to a new low. (quack) Will you guys subscribe and support my OnlyFans gig? Here's a sexy free pic as incentive to...

Relaunched a site October 1st with brand new content and enjoyed an increase since last week but today it has dipped hard already. This last week slowly increasing to 300 pages were collecting impressions, then today its only several. Did Google invite me to the dance or has it kicked me out...

Since people disagree on whether or not the sandbox exists for newer sites, i think it does however, there is a shitty phenomenon that takes place regardless of its label. When not visible in SERPs, just call it the Shitbox, for reasons beyond our comprehension :P

Similar to a site redesign which can change tags, author etc or general architecture of site. I found editing pages on a large scale such as swapping out template-inserted affiliate links for other ones, pages that were ranking will suddenly tank for up to 3-6 months. Is it better to put...

Google includes this quote concerning Doorway Pages Substantially similar pages that are closer to search results than a clearly defined, browseable hierarchy Since a lot of links built on sites are created on a page not linked to from the main navigation these are considered orphan...

I made some changes to a site that wasnt ranking at all for over a year, 2 months before May 25th core update as seen here https://developers.google.com/search/updates/ranking Around the core update the website shot up 1000x. Maybe this is also the reason for varying lengths of "sandbox"...

Anyone facing crawling issues in July? New site launched 12th july googlebot revisits the same 3 nav pages and Nothing else. I have over a million pages of post content waiting to crawl...

Is this a problem if all my content pages besides category pages have 1 affiliate link per post over 1000s of posts? pure affiliate problem?

When your aggressive link building gets slapped by the Google Penguin

This is an unorthodox approach concerning most here but, After seeing projects of my own where i was too lazy to build and with wayyy less content ended up surpassing by a longshot in terms of impressions/clicks sites with tons of content and active link building and reports from stuff like...

What's the longest sandbox time you've experienced? How rare is 12 months in the sandbox before a new site can play?

I have a unique question not really discussed regarding backlinks. Isn't it strange if you create a brand new post on a site that doesnt have its own internal links to it (ex: profile links) which is where the Backlink Indexing business model comes from comes and creates a link to a page...

Is there a good free PBN tool to expose hidden PBN links? Thanks

Would using onclick JS on highly clicked links from other sites to drive traffic to new domains speed up the sandbox period? This would essentially avoid creating "backlinks" with <a> tag and nofollow potentially being treated as a hint and followed but also create the impression of popularity...

Is this update going bananas or what? noticed dozens of different sites of mine hitting ZERO impressions in GSC on june 1st 2022. anybody else?

Blackhatterz, Any correlation with adding affiliate links (1 per post) from launch vs months later to monetize hold any correlation to sandbox wait period length?

I noticed new sites take around 3 months to gain SOME traction in bing now too and really fly post 6 months. I guess age plays a part in both Google and Bing/Yahoo these days?

Anyone been able to zero in on exactly what this update is affecting? i have seen some volatility on a few of my sites wondering if this is temporary?
