I am some pawn in a clever SEO BlueFart - no idea why / how it works
- SEO |
My traffic started ramping up massively recently (about 2 months ago), and I have been getting some random forum posts which I delete as soon as I se them (spam)
And also had a bunch of Wiki spam, which I delete daily (am going to have to take down wiki, as cant keep up).
But what is weird I used to have around 800-1000 inbound links (slowly built either through my forum posting, or via organic / viral / natural linking), but when I checked, I have about 216,457 (and about a week ago it was 180,000)
When I check, there are masses of mainly forum and blog spam, doing massive link building towards me.
I suspect this could be some very clever co-citation method, which is cashing in on the fact that my forum has spam up for a day or 2?
Also the Wiki spam links are getting cycled through at a massive pace (eg main page is getting replaced every 5 mins)
Any ideas on
1) What they are doing?
2) How it works
3) Why they are doing it
4) Most importantly, how can I notify Google what is happening so that I dont get a slap for being apparently in some dirty viagra / casino cross linking / cocitation SEO plan of which I have no idea of how or why it works.
On the upside, due to this SEO campaign, I have had 50% increase each month in my traffic, due to the google rank juice that 200k inbound links is generating for me, I am just worried that there is some clever plan which I will get some sort of slap for later..
Anyone know the path to ask google about link spam?
