Updating Talk of the Google "Minus 30" Penalty

Jan 9, 2007 - 9:56 am 0 by

Just a quick update on the Google Minus 30 penalty that Barry covered last year.

The WebmasterWorld thread has spanned into 2007, with some new and interesting discussion about the penalty that has been largely attributed to linking practices in forums and blogs, and was discussed briefly by Thomas Bindl at Pubcon in November (blog coverage with typos). Catch up and add follow up research now that some time has passed.

Start at the beginning or on the latest page at WebmasterWorld Forums.
