Is it really blackhat if Gooogle doesn't mind?
 

Please share here if you know what you are talking about in regards to SEO and subdomain PR in gooogle. Recently I've been tracking a few sites that have decent PR with their subdomains that simply forward traffic to their sponsor upon click through from gooogle. It appears that gooogle crawls their page but the only way to actually see their page is to view the cache because of the instant forwarding. All that is fine and dandy but crazy thing is they are gaining traffic from searches for sites that don't belong to them. For example (note this is an EXAMPLE) lets pretend I search on gooogle for gfy.com ...I am seeing that pages with URL like the one below is very easy to rank highly and pull traffic within any niche.

https://gfy.com-forums.com/

Why is this allowed? Is it a loophole? Is it fucking stupid?

That happen because keyword is domain.com which have like 0 competition(beside official site)so it is piece of cake to rank.I often noticed traffic coming from keywords of domain.com of my trade partners,but that is mostly just few hits so no point to bother with it. Tho,only keyword domain which does have competition would be pornhub.com and other tubes.

now this is something clever ... you see something that may works, and instead of trying it and making money on it, you post it here ... :upsidedow ... and the owner who is probably making money on it must be rolling his eyes like mad ... oh, man ... :)

Lol,do you think if you dont discuss about your methods publicly people wont figure out how it works?

sure not that much as if you publish it :winkwink:

Well in that case you should stop posting completely - even if you never talk about it,you can still leave enough traces for someone to figure out how things works.

no man ... you know what i am talking about, dont tell me you dont :)

klentelaris and teencat - classic gfy charachters.

Scooty boozer

Rofl poor tc :(

hm no man, it was not about me, just saying someone else may be pissed :) as always, when posting someone elses work or ideas :winkwink:

Give it time. The algo will figure it out and black list them or at the very least down rank them.

If you're in it for the quick buck? Go for it. If not? Follow (generally speaking) the guidelines. Sooner or later you will most likely get burnt.

Just wait until Cutts goes on vacation and then do it :winkwink:
