"Can you tell me what the content of this div

So it checks a cache first

I've been doing this a while now and not seen it this up to date before

Simply using a URL in the chat or prompts

NOTHING TO SEE HERE....

Just Google letting brand new EMDs rank for huge money casino queries

Can we give the humans their jobs back please?

A friendly reminder to disavow the crappy links that are showing up on everyone's link profiles and ignore Google's nonsense that it is unnecessary

This is my traffic plummeting again as more crappy backlinks show up in profile

The BRIEF bump was after my last disavow... then more shit links again

Yeah Sure Thing Pandu... because UK iGaming searchers want to get all their illegal offshore Free Spins offers from Climate Change websites

@sitebulb.com Is this going to be a uninstall and try again?

Hey @johnmu.com this is one of my pages that got link spammed. I disavowed. I can stand tall and affirm that I don't get involved in this kind of thing, yet I have to take this hit to my traffic.

Will the page ever recover?

Is there some kind of limiter of dampener on my pages until these clear?

@methode.bsky.social Why would we start buying hundreds of backlinks when the page worked "with little to no links" achieving these traffic peaks?

A: we didn't, livelihoods torn apart by spam!

You're so adamant negative SEO does not work, so Google clearly attributes these links to our site!

🚨🚨Calling all SEO's for help!

Has anyone blogged on Shopify?

I need to migrate a Magento blog to Shopify, but first question is what platform?

✅Needs to be seamless, low maintenance, SEO friendly, fully integrated

❌Not Wordpress

🤔Shopify own blog is viable if you've used it and can recommend

All our competitors are dropping, as they are hit with the same negative link attacks

We're the only ones with any current recovery, despite being hit over and over again, we've managed to create some upturn with disavows

SEO's offering legal outreach now! 🤦

Links destroyed this page

We didn't build them

Today the page is gone from the core keywords. Dropped by Google

Its been unchanged for 2yrs, live for 15+

Negative SEO turns up... Google: "Bye Bye Page"

@methode.bsky.social tell me negative does not work! Take this challenge "confidentially"

🟩Disavow 1 Added 300 Domains

🟦Disavow 2 Added 1300 Domains

Both times traffic starts to recover after a few weeks. But the destruction goes on behind the scenes as more negative links arrive. Not even the 3rd party tools or Google Search Console Links can keep up
July 23, 2025 at 8:55 AM
Its happening everywhere
July 23, 2025 at 7:43 AM
In less then 30 days spammers were able to take down high ranking pages.... and as you can see, it is taking MONTHS to recover even when the links were disavowed as soon as caught
July 21, 2025 at 11:19 AM
Another honest page of good content getting slaughtered by link spammers
July 21, 2025 at 11:17 AM
Its happening all over and it's destroying sites... Google silent again!
July 19, 2025 at 7:23 PM
Spam everywhere
July 16, 2025 at 9:11 PM
More hard work... good content, for people, by people being destroyed by link spam
July 16, 2025 at 3:09 PM
I rarely tag all Google reps. BUT link spammers are destroying businesses in my niche. It's real & they're succeeding. You can't go public with this, they come after you. My own site has been attacked! Can someone reach out?

85 days now since this hacked site had 404'd these URLs

But still ranks for Casino Queries - is this the new normal?

theportlandarms.co.uk/wp/new-casin...

Its probably the spam links being pumped in keeping the keywords active?
July 15, 2025 at 11:08 AM
A competitor of mine... a good site, employing good people, being killed by SPAM links that Google can't handle.

So sad to see this

@searchliaison.bsky.social

Meanwhile the SERPs are full or parasite domains!
