I'm being linked to from a SE spam site
 
So, is it worth my time trying to get my site(s) removed from this SE spam page:

http://my-friend-hot-mom-mrs-wild.ho...ld/P01L01.html

What sort of problems can I expect being linked to from these sites? I get traffic from them, but I'm sure it's shit traffic. I didn't ask to be linked from them either.

Suggestions?

I've had the same thing happen to me. It's a pretty tough spot to be in, but I wouldn't lose sleep until you see tens-of-thousands of spam links...then you run the risk of being banned.

I had like 10000+ spam links to my site once and I didn't know what to do, but I noticed all of his CECash codes went to the same account. I called CECash, they looked up the spammer, threatened to pull his account without payment if he didn't stop, and next thing I knew all of the bad links were gone.

That is one way of going about it. Hope that helps.

I don't think any incoming links can hurt your site.

You can get in trouble ONLY if you link back.

I disagree. If a competitor can make it look like you are the one that is doing thye spam linking - then you definently can get banned.

If that was true, don't you think it would be too easy to get your competitors banned ?

For example, take their url and spam thousands of blogs/questbooks with it ?


I think this is the reason google still doesn't penalize sites that have these kind of linkbacks to them.

It depends on how they link to you - right now Google has a problem with some of the ways people can link to you that will cause you to be the one they give the dupe ban to - if you need proof that it can be done to a competitor I can show you a fine example :)
It can also be dealt with through Google but it does take some time to start to get back your own listings that were removed because of this type of linking

You would really have to piss someone off or they might want your spot really bad, but 10's of thosands of spam backlinks can get you flagged for an audit by google.

No question about it.
