301 fucked me

I bought an aged, non-spammed domain. The topic of the old domain has nothing to do with the topic of my money site.
about 3 weeks ago, I 301 redirected the aged domain to my money site. Here are the results so far:

keyword 1 - homepage from page 3 to nowhere
keyword 2 - homepage from page 3 to nowhere
keyword 3 - inner page from #3 to #41
keyword 4: inner page from #7 to #8
keyword 5: inner page from #9 to #51

It should also be noted this is a site that is using sape. Sape was done way before the 301.

what should I do? should I wait more, or turn off 301?

remove sape links and you will bounce back.

I presume you're the one paying for the sape links?
Are the anchors direct match to your money site?

yes to both your questions.

What did you expect, you are using 2 black hat methods, drops are gonna occur eventually.

As to your problem it's hard to say which one it is. It could be either the 301 or SAPE.

I would say just keep building and links and see what happens. Removing the 301 isn't going to do much for you at this point.

I'd just keep building links - perhaps focusing on diversifying the anchor text with other link types, like 2.0's, etc.

Since at this point you don't really have anything to lose, blast a couple hundred k spam links to it, you might get lucky and get it back.

Aty thats really bad advice man, Remove the sape, things will restore.

I will say wait. those domains already had some backlinks and I am sure it is google dance.

Build diverse spam links to the 301 domains. The more, the faster, the better.

Chances are his website won't recover anyway, so that's what I would do.

Yeah I think the anchors have allot to do with it as well. Need to diversify em.

And just keep spamming it up. Google loves spam, it's just a love/hate sort of relationship.

Remove sape links

when did you add the sape links? Next time use a filter.

And if your money site does not move in next few days, then 301 your money site domain to new domain and see how it goes.

Don't stop building links! Google is just testing your react will be.

wait for the 301 to take full effect and see what happens first. keep an eye on anchor ration as well.
