i also submitted a ticket and asked for the replacment links.
a few comments.
imho you don't need to change your strategie. you only have to do your work more accurate.
- topic relatet articles, only spun a few times (not 1000times), with different positions for the link.
- no linking beetween the domains (to avoid the domino effect)
- no pinging (if google finds the sites himself it is more natural)
- mybe special niche domains.
article marketing is still working, if you do it accurate.
but this kind of seo is a running game. in the time google detect 10 sites you have to build 11 new sites.
is's a full time job to hold a large (high trust) private article network alive.
if someone will do this job he is wellcome.
3) Social Media Signals - Lately they've became a pretty important element of a natural looking Link Profile, so we'll be featuring :
3.1 Facebook Likes
3.2 Twitter Followers and Tweets
3.3 Google +1s
We will also not use any Tracking Codes to prevent footprints!
- for that the webmasters must integrate a code on their pages.
- and this buttons also include tracking. do you will prevent footprints or not?
- in some countries webmasters get legal problems if they use this buttons on their websites. (because it is against the privacy laws of the county)
