Aggressive SEO Competition – Black Hat SEO Method

“There are heroes in evil as well as in good.” – Francois de La Rochefoucauld.

Hi all. Today we will talk about SEO and competition. We will not talk about nice White Hat SEO boys and girls running around the office with excel pie charts trying to analyze how many clicks a client website has received since their last project management meeting.

Instead, we will talk about very bad Black Hat SEO boys, and what they do to get rid of the competition. I keep saying boys when I talk about bad and Black Hat SEO, because girls can only be good, therefore they cannot be bad or be part of the Black Hat SEO.

Unless of course, it’s a good Black Hat SEO

It is called “Google Bowling”, according to many Black Hat SEO enthusiasts lurking around online. Since You and I fight against Black Hat SEO characters all day long, we need to know about their cruel trickery.

Please remember that I have no experience with these types of activities, and I am only speculating about them based on what I’ve read on the Internet. Let’s not waste time and get going.

Google Bowling, or in other words creating thousands and hundreds of thousands of links (most of the time hundreds of links are enough) to competition site with unethical intent of Google spam flagging these links. The end goal of course is a ban or multiple penalties to the target site as a punishment for all bad links.

A lot of people on their blogs will try to convince you that Google has a fix or a special algorithm to fight this link attack.

Unfortunately, these people are wrong. This type of attack works, it’s real, and it’s not very hard to do.

Remember, using a script to create links is not the biggest and the most important part of this transaction. It’s true that you can pile up huge number of links on a competition site in a very small niche and have that site go down. However, if you are trying to grind down a major mega-site, the amount of links you need will depend on these factors:

domain age
trust
time this site was in the top SERP
current inbound links

and so on.

If you are selling garden knee pads, or a poodle puppies, you will only need a few thousand spam links within a short period to wipe out your target competition site. If you are trying to hurt a competition site, and the niche is “prescription drugs“, you are basically hopeless. There are sites out there like CVS pharmacy and Walgreen’s that cannot be brought down due to their size and authority.

Ok, let’s get to the meat and potatoes of the actual bowling itself. There are several different variations, and basically all of them involve creating masses of links in a short period of time. The main question here is what exactly do you do with all those links once you got them, is what separates Black Hat SEO masters from runarounds.

Analyze your target competition site:

First of all, check the competition site inbound links before doing anything. This is needed to decide how many links need to be placed to this site in order to drop it. Don’t be baffled if the target site has massive amount of inbound links. There have been cases in the past where sites with 25,000 – 40,000 new inbound links each month go down by using this Black Hat SEO method.

Once you learn their inbound links, then you will go for a successful link bomb by the amount of links equal to the three months of their link growth or about a quarter of total links per year. This should be your target number, and remember despite your link spamming tool telling you that links have been successfully posted, you will need to go back and check those 15,000 inbound links every 10 or so hours. There are scraper scripts available out there, and Google knows exactly where.

Build those pesky inbound links:

It’s important not to post thousands of posts in the forums and comments in the blogs. The link spam mast be diversified. Blog comments, pliggs, social bookmarks, refspam, forum postings, can all be automated easily. Google robot can easily determine and most likely classify these links as spam and not index them to begin with if they all come from a single type of source.

A very important detail here, is to make the link anchor text to be exactly the keywords that the competition site is ranking high for. Even if the attack doesn’t succeed completely, the competition site will be penalized for these keywords. In case the question popped up, it’s true, a site can be penalized for a single keyword. I will dive into details of this specific type of penalty in one of the future posts.

If the competition keywords for your site are “batman forever” and “spider-man returns” use these as the anchor text for the links. At the very least the competition site will get banned or penalized for these keywords.

Make sure it’s obvious but not too obvious:

You want Google robot to be able to easily identify all of your comments and posts in the forums as spam. Using just a few keywords as anchor text makes everything easier. Working with the niche specified above, below are the scripts that you would use with XRumer:

{Hallo|Hello|HEy|Hi|Hey|Yo} {all|everyone|peeps|guys|people}{,|}{

|}{I|} {Just|just} {felt I|wanted to{must|had to}} {inquire|ask|aSk} if {anybody|any of you|you guys|anyone} {tell me|knew|can think of} {where I could|how I could procure} {an|a|some} {sweet ass|sweet buns}great|cool|awesome}{[url=http://www.google.com]batman forever[/url]|[url=http://www.google.com]spiderman returns[/url]}{.|?|…}{

|}{I feel|I think|It seems} {we|I|my friends|my family}{ has|} looked {everyplace we can|everywhere}{

|}{Thank You|Thanks} {for your help|ahead of time|in advance}

Note to self:

Looking at this very small script above, we learn that it needs to be very short and therefore simple to flag. Posting lots of links is pretty much enough, but a suicidal script like the one above makes sure Google robot flags those links properly (the way we need it to happen).

Variation Example:

All we talked about so far will work pretty good. Important thing to remember is the amount of links has to be insane. Just a couple hundred will not do, it has to be tens of thousands. Fast and sure kill.

Let’s assume you succeeded at creating about 20,000 inbound links to your competition site, and the anchor text is the keywords you need them drop out of. If you did everything right, your competitor site will be wiped out within two weeks or less. Depending on your link building approach and speed, the domain specifics like age and trust, the niche (important), this could actually happen within 1-3 days. However, be ready to wait a couple of weeks, before making any judgments.

If your target competitor site did not change it’s place in the SERP, you will probably wander why the 25,000 links within 2 days didn’t work. You waited 3 weeks, patiently – nothing happened. You checked the links, all of them are alive. What the… is going on?? What do you do now? You lost, maybe give up? Wrong.

You go get your CSV, XML, TXT or whatever in the world your link spamming software was saving the records in. Fire up the XRumer and highlight all of the successful registrations, posts, user names, and so on. Now, delete all of those posts and accounts and all of the inbound links you created.

Why? Am I crazy?

Deleting links you created to your competition site will get it murdered by Google. This is a sure fail proof Black Hat SEO method.

The XRumer and most other similar mass action software doesn’t have an option of removing links. So how do we accomplish deletion process?

Here’s how to do it:

Spam all of those successful accounts on social bookmarking sites, forums, and comments to death. Use bad words, insults, and garbage to attract attention from admins. As a result all of these and all previous posts, comments, threads, and bookmarks by those accounts will be permanently deleted by admins, and the accounts will be banned as well.

Now, all of those links will fall off overnight, and this time Google will not ignore the massive and sudden disappearance of links. Google will be ruthless.

Food for thought:

If it takes about 1000 links to get a site from the bottom of the first SERP page to the top of that first page, if the 1,000 links are removed this same site will end up on page 8 somewhere.
