Ok this isn’t your normal way of stealing authority or blogspamming, it’s the good old cross linking, you know the stuff that Google says you can’t do, that they catch all the time..
try this search Glazier Ripon I bet you can’t find one Glazier in Ripon, apart from the www.genuki.org.uk which was 1822 !!! for fuck sake.. i have never seen Google in such a bad shape of Spam..
screen shot :
on the other hand look at Yahoo or Live.com.
(I stumbled across this last night after we’d been broken into and was genuinely looking for someone to fix a broken window.)

You’re at number two now
Google really is quick with the indexing these days. - 3
Check out #1 for “glazier bolton” on .co.uk – some classic keyword cramming – especially the hidden text at the bottom of the page

ADY.. same company same template, same cross links, same spam

They spam for the electrician space too:

#9 here. (Though you’ll pop them down to ten as soon as this page gets indexed!) - 6
lol – very funny! i’d stick with the yellow pages dave!
I’m off to work on my adsense mini site network.. got me some crosslinks to build… - 7
This makes a mockery of Google that this can still be done on a large scale.
On a plus note, always nice to have one, really fast indexing Google
, even if it still does not get your window fixed if you live near Ripon - 8
At least the police caught the little Bastards !

Well that’s good news anyway. Glad to hear it. Did you get a lot stolen?

nah just a flat screen though the window and an electric screwdriver .. the building is secure and we have monitored alarms.

TBH didn’t even look at the listings – the snippet was enough to put me off. Well Dave its good to see that all my time spent promoting ethical SEO has paid off….

#1 now from where I am (that’s a long way away…).
Maybe there’s not a whole lot of authority about for that query? (no offence intended)

the more I look for this type of thing, the more I find, making me wonder has G actually done *anything* to fight spam?
well, I suppose they do update the webmaster guidelines now and then

This is why Yahoo replaced Google as my SE of choice a few months ago. If it’s frustrating for us lot, imagine how bad it is for regular users!

Well, when you eventually find a genuine glazier to fix your glass, you might ask them if they have a website and whether they ever get any business through it.
It would be interesting to hear their perspective as to what their related Google results look like, or even to just hear if they are aware of what they look like.

Becky managed to get the window fixed by one of our web clients, North Yorkshire Sash Windows. When they heard what had happened they offered to come straight round and did a great job. So it’s not what you know, but who you know!

Hey mate I have to say you have SB doing it with a lot more creativity

Your police are a lot better than by me! Did you get your stuff back or had it already been sold down the pub.
Always good to know lots of people.
Also you are 1 and 2 when i look.
I am sure Matt will be please to see you number 1

One more way to spam Google. Check how one company have seven listing on the first page with while allt he URL’S ARE ON THE SAME SERVER WITH THE SAME AD SENSE ACCOUNT. http://www.google.com/search?q=liquidation+towels&hl=en&rlz=1T4GGIH_enUS222US222
Just to make it easy the URL’s are ( http://www.clearance-bargains.com,www.warehouseliquidations.com,www.tdwcloseouts.com,www.accesscloseouts.com/)
So the company has on every URL its own who is, and the contact info in the site has its own 1800 number and address but all the URL’S are on the same server and using the same google adsence account pub-0588278385560732

it’s coming up #1 for me on google.com from the US ! well done
Now just wait for all those calls from people with broken windows… - 22

“apart from the http://www.genuki.org.uk which was 1822″
Out of curiousity, how do you know it’s rank if it’s past 1000?
- 24
I’m guessing that was a typo for 182.
- 25
That would make sense because I’ve pulled more thank 1k results a lot, but I can’t ever tell which one is ranking where because of the way they’re pulled.

The *year* 1822. That site is a geneaology site, and references glaziers 185 years ago.
Seeing as davidnaylor.co.uk is now 2nd those results just got a lot worse
