They were not used much initially and I did not think much of them until these "unnatural links" notices started flying a month ago. | Apr 26, 2012 | ||

| 505: | Google Webmaster Tools Offers Malware Review "GWT is going to start notifying you in your GWT account if they believe your site or sites have malware installed.

Using a multivariate dataset, across a range of different keyphrases, user intents and user types, Google exposed our site in marginal but significant ways (putting us up one place, dropping Universal search, above or below shopping results, etc).
