Blast competitors = Sandbox?

Honestly, I don't know anymore. People say that you shouldn't blast your site with Scrapebox. But then they say that blasting your competitor won't do anything but benefit them. So it's kind of contradictory if you ask me.

Same thoughts here. I think it's kind of kicking off newbs and conspiracy of pro SEO's to tell newbs do not blast their domains, because it will hurt their rankings, while they blast the shit out of their domains lol. I can't find another reason.

A direct blast won't negatively effect an already established website much. The argument "If a direct blast is bad, I will just blast my competitor" doesn't hold because you want to take out #1, #2, #3 ... typically whoever is already #1, #2 or #3 is well established enough that an extra blast will only help them.

Then you have your site, which ranks +50 and has no solid standing. It's probably less than 6 months old. You do some quality backlinking and it breaks into the top 10 by the skin of its teeth. That site has a shakey hold on its position. Blasting that with xrumor or scrapebox could easily sandbox the site.

There are a few instances where blasting #1 would cause a google dance and harm your competitor ... that is typically when they don't really deserve to be #1 anyways. And when they don't deserve #1 anyways, its easy enough just to outrank them with proper SEO.

By the time your own site can easily handle a scrapebox, xrumor blast ... you're already going to be top Google results anyways. And then its pretty stupid to rock the boat, even though you might get away with it.

sure, theres alot of 301 redirect codes online, but you would have to do it on a refering domain bases, such as if refering domain is xxxxxx 301 redirect to xxxxx.. im going to look for this set up and get back to you


reason you have to do 301 redirects on a refering domain this way is because you don't want to redirect the links you have built.

i dont think it would help you if your site has already been sandboxed, the trick is to do it once you notice all of them links.

its an aged domain trick people use to point all the backlinks from that domain to their site though.

I just registered a new domain yesterday and I am ready to test this!
I need only hosting for the domain, someone can offer it???
after we can start the blast

I have a friend who has recently been knocked back to page 3 after being blasted with thousands of links daily to his site, he knows it is a competitor but says he is waiting for it to stop and rebuild back to page 1, from what i have seen you can effect established sites but only for a short term gain, as people have already stated the top sites are there for a reason and negatives will more than likely just create a google dance where they will simply reappear in the same position but stronger than before, just work on your own site and concentrate on you not effecting others.
