Results of a MASSIVE Google Ban Earlier this month, five domains that were registered between May 25th and May 31st by the same spammer used a sub-domain trick to get billions of pages indexed in Google. Doing that got the sites in to the top 2,000 ranking according to Alexa. Spammers depend on Google BIG time. Here's the results of Google banning this massive spammer. t1ps2see.com - Daily reach per million internet users crashed from 1,500 to 400!!! Google listings before being banned: 2,190,000,000 Date Banned: Sunday, June 18th. Current Alexa Rank: 3,615 Alexa Information.

By now we all know that reporting a spammer through Google.com won't help at all. Inspired by our success at getting this massive spammer King banned so quickly, I present, The Step-by-Step Guide to Getting A Spammer Banned from Google: 1. Post about it on a very popular message board. Especially DigitalPoint. Many message boards might hardly even talk about it, but when you report a Spammer on DigitalPoint, the Spammer get's exposed really quick, as was seen with this massive spammer, at this thread.. 2. Submit the article to Digg.com. The more people see this, the more Google will panic. 3. Get the article to the front page of Digg.com. Now were talking real exposure!! 4. Other Internet sites pick up the article and post it on there page. Now some one is about to really panic!!! Who could that be!!! 5. Google finds out and panics and quickly banns the sites before the Stock Market opens. We all celebrate and move on to the next spammer. 6. Rinse and repeat. Doing this may keep Google from getting the nickname Spamoogle. Comments Posted on June 22, 2006 at 04:31:56 by Jesse Smith: Way to go!!

Posted on June 22, 2006 at 19:14:02 by RealLifePixel.com: Spamoogle. Man that is fun to say. SPAMOOGLE! Posted on June 22, 2006 at 19:16:30 by Jonathan Zencovich: The problem is they just got one spammer. There are unffortunately many more. Google needs to step up the game! :) Posted on June 22, 2006 at 19:19:21 by ArcadeGeek.com: At least Google has banned them. Hopefully they will make changes to prevent this kind of activity. Posted on June 22, 2006 at 19:20:01 by me: Panic?? They are just doing their job. Nothing for you to get excited about. Posted on June 22, 2006 at 19:20:42 by BiscuitBob: Yeah, lets use digg the way it's intended to be used, spam control! :-/ Posted on June 22, 2006 at 19:23:10 by Freedom Warrior: This is ridiculous. What ever happened to freedom of speech. Google has no right to ban all those pages. Big Brother! Posted on June 22, 2006 at 19:25:31 by tech guy: Looking at the URL's it amazes me that google can't tell those domains are spam on face. Until then. Go digg!!

Google needed to do something. Posted on June 22, 2006 at 19:34:40 by Seal: This isn't a violation of freedom of speech when there's no message/speech/thought involved. This is clearing out abuse. Posted on June 22, 2006 at 19:39:17 by Harry Maugans: I'm pretty sure Google researches every spammer you submit using they're forum, however they DO read forums too.

Posted on June 23, 2006 at 06:55:32 by Google Rocks!!!: Google rocks!!! Posted on June 23, 2006 at 07:00:58 by Internet Middleman: Weird. One would think there would be some kind of logical check on the number of pages for a given IP. Posted on June 23, 2006 at 08:33:39 by WilliamC: Maria: it was a handjob, not an automatic ban. Only reason this got banned was because he was outed. Many are still live Posted on June 23, 2006 at 10:38:14 by CrankyDave: "Many are still live" Now THAT'S an understatement.
