Google's Webspam Report - Will it help or hurt you?
From Google Launches Chrome Extension for Reporting Spam Websites - Softpedia:
Users can select from several types of bad behavior for the reported link, such as hidden text or links, misleading or repeated words, page does not match Google's description, cloaked page, deceptive redirects, doorway pages, duplicate site or pages or paid links.
If none of the above cases applies, users can check "Other" and manually describe the problem.
"We thoroughly investigate every report of deceptive practices and take appropriate action when we uncover genuine abuse.
"In especially egregious cases, we will remove spammers from our index immediately, so they don't show up in search results at all.
"At a minimum, we'll use the data from each spam report to improve our site ranking and filtering algorithms, which, over time, should increase the quality of our results," Google explains.
You can get the extension at https://chrome.google.com/extensions...idhfbojhnfiepj and start reporting your black hat competitors today!
