Another Warning From Google. What's your thought?

I subscribed to Google Webmaster blog and a recent post was a warning about guest posting, contributor post and another kind of paid post promoting one website or it's post/pages.


What's your thought about this? Drip feed guest posting? Like 2 links per week?

Here's the link: https://webmasters.googleblog.com/2...amDG+(Official+Google+Webmaster+Central+Blog)

Just disregard what google says and make your own research.

For me, it's like Google says, those links worked and clearly a SERP ranking manipulation so don't do those. HAHAHAHAHA

For me it says a multi billion dollar company knows people are spamming the shit out of something to cheat their algorithm.

It doesn't take a genius to realise they will be bringing out an update to remedy this gaming of their system...

I mean its not as if they didn't warn people about interstitials and then brought out an update to target that is it...

I would be taking it as a warning for future updates to come...

But hey i put longevity of my business over short term profits, do you?

Well, rape it while you can then as Google will eventually fix this.

All it means is this: They know people are using them to gain an advantage. So Google is going to take a stance against it, and eventually they might figure out a way to stop it. So it's best to double check what you're doing and make sure you haven't been sloppy.

So my advice is this: Just be sure your guest posting is done at a high quality and in a natural ratio with other linkbuilding you're doing.

I think it's like most of Google's updates. There stopping spammy links. But links from high quality authority links will always remain top dog in my eyes. Just means that IM and SEO will continue to get more expensive.

Spamming is dead long time(except for handful keywords), its good in my opinion as it weeds out the spammers and good for people who have patience and has great websites to offer rather then just crappy affiliate sites.

It's a warning for guest posts, contributor post & other kind of paid posts, but not Real guest posts you see.

Rel guest blogging never dies! So, Less Worries

There is no such thing as real guest post or unreal guest post. Google sees both as just guest post, as they said in posting they are warning everyone, that includes even sites like naturalnews.com(example) .

There is no such thing as real guest posts ? Objection your honor!

There is such thing, where we name it as real guest posts & unreal guest posts.

1. Real guest posts are natural backlinks or building links natural to the eyes of Google.
2. Unreal guest posts are Paid backlinks, spammy links, low quality links, Guest post themed PBN blogs, etc etc.

I must say, Its Warning from Google for unreal guest posts & links in large scale article campaign!

Does Google warns, if some real users write Interesting article & found your website related to it, while writing research article
The Author must link back to your website & that's done naturally - Me or you or Google can't do any control over it.

Google warns, For websites creating articles made for links not these real guest posts.
Google takes action on this behavior because it’s bad for the Web as a whole.
When link building comes first, the quality of the articles can suffer and create a bad experience for users is what said in the article.

Google best advice in relation to link building is to focus on improving your site’s content and everything--including links--will follow (no pun intended)


P.S : One of the best example of paid guest posts is blogs.Naturalnews, which got spammed several months before

I think you're essentially right. Like most things they crack down on it starts from the bottom up. So the fake guest post sites (made for selling links that try to pass off as "real" blogs), then the highly spammed real sites, then the posts from authors who post crap quality content... and so on.

Ignore google's warnings, but be sure to not make things with your link building too apparent.

It's pretty obvious on what they are trying to say, reminding everyone. If you get Google's attention of spam linking and you're site content doesn't bring value. You will be penalized.
