Knoxing – App Development, SEO, iPhones & Stuff

Frustrated with the same scraper splog for a while, pagerankpimp.com (many of you have noticed this in your WordPress dashboard) – I’m happy to see they have apparently been nuked. Hopefully the efforts I’ve put forth finding others scraped by them have resulted in their AdSense account being banned; hence their removing the splog, finally. This annoyance of SEO and blogosphere copy-lifter may just need to find a job now. Can you believe the kid was 15? Well, no more AdSense on there now, kiddo!

I hope he doesn’t come back, Google is supposed to ban a PERSON, not an account. But, spammers are clever. Best way to get these guys is their wallet – Google asks for feedback on their ads people, USE IT – click the Google logo in the adsense on the blog that scraped your article and credited a fictitious author.

  1. Oh, he will be back. Just a matter of time. Once these people have a taste for the easy buck they will work every angle possible.

    How did you figure out that it was a 15 year old?

    In my country (Poland, Europe) we have kind of “silent agreement” between few network admins (big networks, big admins;)). When someone find such a person or activity we try to hunt him to find out where he lives. If it is in our country he is banned from his local network(small network admins are very helpful). We do this with informal support from our friends in police (they also have network administrators;)).
    Sometime this work also above borders in EU (yeah I know no borders in EU… in theory:)).
    By the way-thank you for your page, I like it.

  • Content Demoted To Queen

    January - 16 - 2007

    Every SEO regurgitates the phrase “Content is King” but I think the claim needs revaluation. Search engine gurus have spouted the phrase for quite a while, but have you noticed just how many sites are ranking with very little, or scraped content? Makes you want to figure out what’s causing the rank, and you realize [...]

    October - 25 - 2007

    The diagram to the right is to aid you guys who may later complain about splashback. Here’s a quick ramble, not a rant. Another common sense issue.

  • Better WordPress Header Images

    January - 6 - 2008

    I love WordPress, but it’s pretty dang ugly out of the box. Yes, there are many free themes you can download, some of them are nicer looking, most suck for SEO, some are average and a couple are pretty good. Most avid bloggers don’t want a blog that looks like another, so a custom job [...]

  • Denver Notice – MySpace Amber Alerts

    October - 20 - 2008

    I had no idea that MySpace presents Amber Alerts.  I logged into my Denver Profile this morning and it showed me this.  It gives a good amount of info.  Though MySpace is gimmicky and abused, this is a nice service. Regardless, take in the Alert.
