While the title of this article may sound dramatic and probably got your attention, the question posed above is certainly true for those network architects and owners that do not understand Google fully. In recent times the rise of the homepage backlink networks (HPBL) has obviously caught the attention of Google and as of last month (February 2012) is now officially public enemy number one of the "Big G" too. The most recent algortithm updates have put into effect a major change in linking signals which probably should have been put in place a very long time ago. And I am going to tell you why these networks are a target. They simply work. They have been one of the most effective methods of gaining rankings over the past couple of years. Unfortunately though, 90% of these networks have some very fundamental mistakes that make them glaringly obvious and extremely easy to find. And this is something I have been predicting to happen for sometime now. I have been privy to a lot of these networks. I have seen them popping up all over the place. I have helped people set them up correctly. I have been part of the beta testing programs for some of the largest networks available. I find them every single day when doing competition research for my clients. And I am going to tell you that 90% of them all make the same mistakes. I like to call these networks "bigfoot" networks. Why? Simply because they introduce a massive footprint to backlink structures which is a big problem and mistake in any link building campaigns. If there is a footprint, they can be seen, tracked down and identified and they will be removed from Google's index, therefore making them completely useless for SEO purposes and more than likely causing some form of collateral damage and penalties along the way. I have seen many websites that completely rely on this type of backlink. There are so many problems with this and I think this would require another article in the near future purely discussing link building strategies. So what are the things that cause a footprint? Below are some of the biggest mistakes I have seen and personally go out of my way to completely avoid myself. 1. Lack of "geographical" IP address diversity 2. Exact same outbound links on each site 3. All "Dofollow" links 4. All WordPress themes 5. Thin page content with minimal number of pages 6. No advertising or revenue sources visible on the pages 7. Lack of media files and images 8. No Analytics or Webmaster installed 9. Not having private domain registration on every site 10. Spun content instead of unique hand written, readable content. 11. Provide link reports listing each and every website in their network. 12. Interlinking between the sites within the network. |
