On day two of a new SEO term, we have Google Vibration Effect.
This one comes with no explanation. A DigitalPoint Forums thread just has one webmaster stating someone told him his site suffers from it. He wrote:
Today I got a call from Google, they told me we are not promote your sites in Google. Your Sites has vibration effect.I do not have any idea, what is vibration effect can anyone help me.
Thanks in Advance
Clearly, Google did not call him. But what does this term mean? What SEO scam is this related to or did the person misunderstand?
Vibration effect? Maybe it sounds like another term used? Maybe it is like a flux effect? I am not sure. Any ideas?

I laughed when I noticed that they were called peons and grunts. Why not simply ask them directly and see if you can get clarification on the 'vibration effect?'

It's a scam, the term does not exist in SEO.

Could there be a translation issue maybe? Possibly one some language Google dance translates to Google vibration? Just guessing.

Did he has Flux Capacitor? This looks like a classic language barrier example mixed with SEO carelessness. It does seem like they are referring to "jumpy rankings"... flux sounds so complicated

I wonder how many people this scam has worked on already. If only it were so easy to get away with stuff like this in my industry...

The call should be from a scam agency. Their unprofessional operator forgot the exact word of "sandbox" but only remember the effect of swinging up and down.

We need to see his site, but could it be vibrating color combinations? http://accessibility.psu.edu/colorvibrate

that was the original name for Panda but the engineer drew a flowchart showing how it would make them look bad.

I myself never heard about this term, I guess this is just some general word, because since 7 years, being updated with different SEO forums and Matt Cutt blog and tweets, I really feel, this is just a general word and the one who have posted this on any forum might be new to SEO... and he might have got scared to listen such word... Feel this term should reach Mat Cut.. :)
