Gone are days for "Fake SEO" techniques


Google has come hard to big blog networks with huge links and term them as "Fake SEO" techniques. Below is screenshot of what big webmasters are receiving:




When did it start?

It seems all the buzz started with de-indexing of large link networks. It means that Google will remove these networks (inter-linked, self sustain planet of sites) from its crawler. Strangely, few of these networks have been running for years and made millions of dollars already.

Why is it happening?
Few of the reasons that I have collated are:
> Involvement in any artificial link networks
> To and fro content from low quality blogs
> Usage of link blasts
> Excessive use of rich anchor text
If you have used one or more of above, then removing it is the only way out.

What to Do?
If you’ve received this message, then remove the links and send reconsideration request to Google. It might not restore your lost rank but still worth trying.

Final Word
I am not a big fan of Google policies and understand Google changes them multiple times every year which causes lot of websites to go out of business. Still, I see a point as Google is trying to benefit entire community by selecting only quality content sites.
You can no longer enjoy high rankings by building low quality links, time has started to go via natural and authentic link route.
