Update Saga. Part 5

[Brett_Tabke]

What say you?

Over and done with?

All done all through?

Powdork: "selomelo,
You're not cloaking anything are you? "

No. It is just my blog where I post my daily murmurs (well, a bit louder). No links, no backlinks, no comments. Nothing other than my personal messages.

since j3 is spreading at 31 DC's I have a tremendous traffic though is Friday night.I continue have the J3 results at my default .com co.uk .de .

[Powdork]

selomelo,
Can you tell if one of the bots is following js links or redirects?
It seems nowadays one of the favorite tricks is to use a doorway page with an onmouseover redirect that has been rewritten in ascii characterslike so
onMouseOver="eval(unescape('Ascii link here'));"
There is even a time delay of about 7 seconds which may be what is confusing the bots.

I don't see J3 on 31 DC's personally I tend to agree with our friend reseller, J3 would be on the DC's he mentioned.

Powdork,

No. It is a wordpress directory at my site. I installed a permalink redirect plugin (301 with php) to handle dupe content problems with wordpress, a counter plugin, and another plugin for forced (301) redirect from non-www to www.
BTW, my site bumping up with the J3 (from prejagger #35 to #3. Also, my blog posts seem ranking well.

Do you think that there is a problem if separate pages are crawled simultaneously from different IPs? Or, is there anyone with a similar experience?

[bobble]

I've seen a lot of this with the new Update..... Hidden text, especially text that is hidden in CSS or DIV layers.

If you are using javascript and Xml to change textual content on your site without refreshing the page you have <div>'s with "hidden text" on the page source. Is this considered spam by the new Update?

[caveman]

Ive never seen so many different factors evolve in such a short space of time

I tend to agree with that, as much as one is even able to tell so far.

And count me as one who thinks that the recips issue is overblown. The blatant and lousy link exchanges maybe hurting, but that's an extension of a long standing trend. If you can't see trends like that and act on them in advance, you're in for a long hard battle. That one dates back to Florida, at least.

People must keep in mind that there is absolutely no news in Matt or anyone else from G suggesting that one way quality inbounds are the best sorts of links to get. "Best sorts" to get is quite different from "only sorts" to get.

Matt apparently said at PubCon "Best links are earned, not sold or traded. You may not get what you pay for."
He said, if someone is selling text links, they should give you a free test trial to make sure it works. They have both manual and algorithmic approaches to detect paid links. He said Google.com gets emails asking to trade links. The guy who came up with the pixel homepage thing, that was creative."

Not sure if that helps or not :-)

That comes from the link posted by Dayo_UK number 1118

From Matt Cutt's Blog

The best links are not paid, or exchanged after out-of-the-blue emails–the best links are earned and given by choice.
