Would you take a negative SEO job? a customer has contacted me about the possibility of getting into a negative SEO on a website. whole matter is that they have had a dissatisfied customer who has now made ​​a website about how bad the product is but the problem is this is a single person who has created massive negative publicity Would take that kind of task or should I keep my distance from it?

The only way i can see it be done is to make massive backlinks with same anchor text and hope it will drop of the map..

That's a terrible idea.

The benefits of dropping a bad site off the SERPs is going to accomplish what? What happens when they make a new site? Or see what you're doing and react with a legitimate SEO?

Instead, drop it with your own campaign. Create a Facebook page, a Twitter page, a Squidoo page, a LinkedIn page and any other large 2.0 profiles... Rank these profiles above the negative site in order to

A.) Get rid of it.
B.) Prevent it in the future.

I would take this job, however first I would explain the differences between negative SEO and reputation management. They are wanting to fight fire with fire when they could fight it with a fire extinguisher and put an overhead sprinkler system in place to keep it from happening again.

I really like that analogy :cool:
 
the problem is it cant be beaten by legimate seo my client is #1 on google and the unsatisfied person have his hatesite as #2 on google just below my client so only way is to see if it can be droped out of the page one or well make seo on 10 other pages sop they fill out all the spots on page one :)

You will waste more time than just improving your site.

Don't bother with it, it is too much work.

That doesn't make sense....

First of all, you're not going to drop this other site. So just get that out of your head. Again, it's a terrible idea and personally, I would notice exactly what you're doing and react with some quality links and if I'm at #2 already, I will probably get to #1 by the time you're finished.

Second of all, that's exactly what you have to do - build 10 pages and kick that person off the front page. You want complete control over all the content for this keyword! Again, even if you kick them off.. What happens when they make another one? It hasn't taken long to get to #2. How long would it take to do it again? What happens if they come back with negative rep management and kick YOU off the front page?

Sounds like your client needs a much improved SEO campaign for his site already.. Plus he needs to take control of this keyword. Once you have all 10 spots, it doesn't really matter if his site ends up in #1 or #10 because all roads would lead to Rome. :)
 
I disagree with the comments that have been made and think negative seo in this case would work and would be the cheapest option. Whether you want to get involved in it is a different matter though.

A relatively new site with not very many links can easily be kicked into touch with a 100k Xrumer and or Scrapebox blast or at least several 100k blasts. If you don't have these tools, you can buy gigs on Fiverr that will do the trick (you probably won't get that number in one go but there are often add ons). This works out pretty damn cheap. Sure they might create another website but then you can blast that.

Doing reputation management by creating 10-15 domains and taking up the top 10 positions in the serps for particular keywords is a well known idea and great in theory but bloody difficult in practise and will cost a lot of money. It is in effect 10 seo campaigns in one and its a case of hero or zero because if one site slips through the net, it undermines all of your work.

You may also want to set up Google alerts encase they have written posts on forums etc. Don't blast these obviously but monitor them encase you need to reply to those comments with standard reputation management stuff.
 
If you put any hard work into a site you'd realize why most people don't morally approve of negative SEO.

Might as well do something good in life to try and restore your karma by at least posting the results of your deviant behavior.
 
i agree that is it is possible for them to make another site and just make that the new hate site
and maybe it is troo it is impossible to drop it off the page one of google :(

is is a pr1 site with 400 backlinks

I agree with this but we are talking about getting rid of a hate site here. Whether you do it by out ranking it with other sites or by negtive seo, the results are the same. It would be a different matter if this was a normal site and a business that was proposing to be trashed. That would obviously not be right

any site can be beaten :D
 
heck yes i'd take the job (obviously!), especially when it is a malicious site...no reason to stand there and let someone sucker-punch you all day...hit them back.
 
Don't do it because negativity is like a virus. Take no part in it for any price. Stay positive and speaking of which, a little light hearted black hat mischief on the other hand can be very positive....:p Plenty of opportunities for that about. Take charge!

Your username is Negative SEO, so why am I not surprised.

Negative SEO means = I cannot do real SEO

And what would "real seo" be in this case ?
rank 9 (NINE) additional sites just to outrank 1 ?

My god.. i have better things to do, seriously.
That site is no competitor, but a 100% hate site - why even ask ? i'd do it without thinking about it for a second.

No, you outrank it with easy to make and rapidly indexable items like videos and images and news articles, plus do SEO on existing review sites. No need to knock a legitimate solution for one that won't work.

To OP, just get him on a suppressive SEO campaign with ORM. Contact me for an ORM system you can use.

Take the negative SEO job the customer has requested, then upsell him on creating other sites to outrank the hatesite.
