Still live.... Its not a hack, dropped domain exploit still at large. UK traffic is cloaked so they get the illegal casinos everyone gets an error page and I'll presume Google gets a nice clean page

How do you suppose a dropped domain pushes its way to number 1 in AI overviews for best bingo searches with no web history wombwithaviewgrimsby.co.uk/online-bingo/ FFS Sure we're all very proud of Google's AI overviews!!! @divingfor.fun @johnmu.com @methode.bsky.social @glenngabe.bsky.social

Same with links... this site is attracting junk links. Google must seriously think these links mean "popular site" until in a few weeks time when I expect this site to drop I'm pretty convinced these delays are Google throttling spam detection systems to distribute resources to other G services

BUY LINKS everyone... they work until they don't! Doesn't matter how shit they are.... Google spam filters run about 8 weeks behind everything else, probably to save on the energy bills, so they can pay for AIOs When your site dies.... just get another one and do it all again

Ranking URL: www.new-online-casinos-uk.casino/new-uk-casin... Canonical: <link rel="canonical" href="https://www.mcdonaldswrapofday.co.uk/new-uk-casinos-no-deposit-bonus/"> Honestly at this stage this an insult to SEOs who "do the right things" @methode.bsky.social @johnmu.com @divingfor.fun

Nothing to see here... just a chart of the endless cycle of brand new domains being pumped with fake traffic allowing them to instantly (infinitely) outrank real companies in this search space.... for mega YMYL queries Meanwhile legitimate "well behaved" websites are shunted to page 2 and beyond

Something stinks! How can a parked 123reg domain landing page outrank real sites? Is Google more of a punishing algorithm now than a reward system? When you have so many conflicting systems, the balance eventually gets skewed and no-seo pages inadvertently rank bingobonuses.me.uk/lander?oref=...

Another new day when my client is shoved off page 1 because of a bunch of new junk domains are pumped with fake viral traffic and now sit top of every query in the search range. @johnmu.com @methode.bsky.social @divingfor.fun Its almost infinite visibility loss for them while this continues.

A new day another different dropped domain surging into the top spot... this time pumped into the snippet This query never has a rich snippet. These only appear when there's burst of traffic, which of course is fake traffic

Hacked "hope after suicide loss" domain ranking for UK gambling searches among other hacked or dropped domains. Its sickening how STUPID this exploit is... and still legitimate rule-following businesses in this niche are being destroyed @dannysullivan.bsky.social @johnmu.com @divingfor.fun

Not new news... but which AI firm do we think has bought this domain (someone surely?) Paging the search oracle @rustybrick.com because I'm betting one of them has acquired this and I'm an SEO conspiracist It would make a good ai chat brand afterall Surprised they didn't pivot to an AI ask tool

These spam domains took less than 48hrs to go from zero to top rank with a canonical chain from penalised sites Google took only 1 week to respond to Press Gazette about a similar exploit in Discover @methode.bsky.social Organic SERPs have been hacked, EXPLOITED and yet, nothing, SILENCE Why?

Dropped domain, pumped with shit links, canonicalized to a new .uk.com so the owners can impersonate a brand. Google... Here you go, have all the rankings you need, come though the back door and bypass all the spam detection.

The peaks and troughs are the endless battle against thousands of spam links, using nothing more than a disavow to recover each time There are safe niches where John's advice applies and there are not safe niches where people need to test and make up their own minds

My SERPs are a mess. Like an absolute shambles of illegal spam sites. Literal illegal content 7 expired & recently recycled domains, 1 canonical tag abuse to a brand new EMD and 2 AWS URLs outrank 15 year old sites in this space, payday loans levels @divingfor.fun @johnmu.com @methode.bsky.social

I work in iGaming affiliate space. A place where "building good content" returns nothing. Instead you get wrongly outranked by your partner brands, while spam is allowed to FREELY destroy the integrity of the entire industry The red patches are all wrong results drive.google.com/file/d/1SG_-...

Hey @johnmu.com can a good link turn bad? Client has a link on a site that's been spammed with links. The host site is struggling. We all agree links are the problem If a backlink on that site was good yet Google spam algorithms are punishing the site, does it devalue the link? i.e Bad Company?
