With all the spam going on on search engines these days, there is no doubt that Google will tighten their ways of fighting spam. They recently announced that they will fight spam much stronger than ever before. One of their ways to fighting spam will be by clearing their index of websites that have a lot of duplicate content, links farms and poor content. Another way that they will fight spam will be by giving the options to users to give them feedback about low quality websites.
Users Can Mark Websites As Spam
One way that Google will start fighting spam is by enabling users to tag websites as spam. If a user performs a search on Google and falls on a website that isn’t relevant to his query, he will be able to mark that website as spam. Users will now be able to blacklist domain names that are irrelevant to queries. By marking it as spam, the user won’t ever see that result again and if a domain gets tagged too often, he will be flagged for a review and eventually banned from all SERPs.
Cloned Content Websites
Cloned websites are exact copies of another website to look exactly the same as the original one. This is the main technique spammers use to get their websites ranked higher. Sometimes, cloned websites rank much better than the original website which is totally ridiculous. Cloning a website has got to be the dirtiest way to increase your rankings and thanks to the Google Web Spam updates, this won’t be possible anymore.
Content Farms
There are way too many low quality content websites out there. Those low quality websites were created for the only purpose to get clicks and traffic for ad revenue purposes. Thanks to the Google Web Spam updates, these websites will soon have a very hard time getting ranked. Google received huge amounts of feedback from web users having issues with low quality websites that contain low quality and spam content. Content farm websites will very soon be eradicated from all Google SERPs.
