"Black Hat" Notices From Google?
Posted by surfin@aol.com (Friend) on 04 December 2012 08:53 AM

Google Guy Matt Cutts just uploaded a video to try to "debunk" the myth that they sent out over 700,000 un-natural link notices. He says that over 600,0000 of THOSE notices were for "black hat!" And only about 25k were for UN-natural linking the myth that they sent out over 700,000 un-natural link notices. He says that over 600,0000 of THOSE notices were for "black hat!" And only about 25k were for UN-natural linking. Here is the video. Matt Cutts on Black Hat Notices While Wearing a Panda T-Shirt. What a ________ (you fill in the blank).
If you got one, please post it here! But I am thinking most Black Hatter's don't put their sites in Google WebMaster Tools so those notices to them probably went unread! I mean, come on, if you were doing Black Hat, would YOU put your site in the cross-hairs of Google? I know I wouldn't and didn't! lol So, I thought, ok, let's see if one of my de-indexed blogs got a notice, so I found one that was still up (no content on it any longer) and see if it had gotten a notice. And sure enough, it did! But there is NOTHING in this letter that says anything about Black Hat! My old networks only account for 20k of those, and as far as I know, I lost the most, so who else got hit in large quantities? Or was it just thousands smaller network owners? But then again, can we ever believe what comes out of Matt Cutts? Let me know what YOU think below. And please, if you got a message in Jan--March that wasn't a Link Notice, let's see it! cheers, Dori Friend p.s. And how totally uncool he would wear a Panda t-shirt on one of these videos! The below comment says it all and I totally agree.. And for that, Matt wins the ___________ award! Again, you can fill in the blank! http://seosmurfs.com/ p.s.s. Now for the "Shameless Plug."

Interview With ME, Dori Friend. :-)
Posted by dori@dorifriend.com (Dori Friend) on 02 August 2012 05:26 PM

Lisa Parmley of InlineSEO.com asked to do an interview with me, so I had so much fun ranting about Google, I thought I would post it here so we can all either rant together, or argue about what is coming next! LOL Here it is.. Lisa: Hi Dori, I really appreciate you taking the time to give me an interview. That was really nice of you to reply to my email so quickly! I asked a few questions here, I know my readers would be interested in as much detail as you're willing to share. Q. I know you've been doing SEO for a long time, exactly when did you first get started running an online business?Q. If you're willing to share it, what was the first business idea you put together?
Q. Did you start out with SEO right away as your favorite source of traffic?
Q. Compared to what getting top rankings were like when you first got started, what do you see as the biggest changes to SEO over the last decade?
Q. Do you have any funny stories of ranking? Like a site you built that should have never ranked, but was getting out-of-control awesome rankings in the search engines? Would you care to share what top rankings for a particular key phrase or phrases have meant to you in terms of money?
Q. It seems to me that Google is really learning toward brands, almost every health search I do anymore has webmd and the mayoclinic near the top. Do you think there's still room for the little guys (and girls)? And if so what's the best strategy for them?
Q. What do you think are the top mistakes small business owners are making when it comes to getting high rankings?
Q. What are your top 3 methods for getting links?
Q. You're so tapped into the SEO industry; I bet you can give some pretty good predictions. Where do you see the SEO industry in 2 years?
Q. What about 5 years?
Q. What are your predictions for Google Plus? Is it worth the typical small business owner's time to get started on it or will it fizzle out?
Q. Google will supposedly come out with a link disavow tool. If so are you going to suggest people who've gotten unnatural links warnings to use it sparingly or just disavow pretty much everything linking back to their site?
Q. Do you trust what Matt Cutts says?
Q. You've been a major player in the blog network arena (if not THE top player) and I know there has been a major shake-up. I'm sure you've got something cooking now like a better version of a blog network, or maybe even something completely different. What can we expect to see from you in the future?
Again, thank-you so much for taking the time to answer these questions! I know my visitors will get a lot out of it. Sincerely, Lisa
