Four months after Google’s first link network penalty in Poland, Google has
targeted an additional two Polish link networks this morning.
Google’s Karolina Kruszynska, a spam fighter, posted on Twitter that
the most recent wide spread manual action targeted two link networks in Poland:
Google’s Matt Cutts confirmed this as well on Twitter after Bartosz Góralewicz showedevidence on of massive manual actions being sent out in Poland.
Bartosz posted a screen shot of manual actions received by webmasters over this
link network slap: Matt Cutts, Google’s head of search spam, responded
that Google indeed took action in Poland. Adding he didn’t “tweet about it
because people have been asking us to be more positive.”
As I covered at the Search Engine Roundtable, Bartosz feels that
this actually hit more than two link networks. He told me it hit at least four
including Statlink.pl, Gotlink.pl, e-weblink.com and seopilot.pl. I asked
Google to confirm which networks were hit but they have yet to reply to my
request by the time I have posted this story. Bartosz added that Google doesn’t
really know how many networks they hit because it “wasn’t too severe and spread
across all the major networks.”
Google also posted details on the Google Poland blog about how to submit
reconsideration requests after you’ve been hit by a manual action.
