Huge website Search Quality Team problem
-
One of my clients, have a huge problem. His page which generate traffic over 3 milion unique users per month (GA) has been penalized in January / filtered by Google, reason is simple: incoming links from low quality pages... We try everything from reconsideration request to meeting Google Europe employees (But not directly with search quality team), reconsideration requests (over 10) in 6 month are bounced off we got automatic reply like "This website have still problem, read Google Webmasters FAQ etc." We contacted manually with webmasters which have websites with incoming link to us, some pepole delete with no problem, rest don't take any action to remove our links from webistes...A few days ago we use disavow tool links where we add all links which can be ignored by Google, so.. we make new recosideration data with specific information and yesterday we got the same reply like as beginning of the year.. Like this: "There are still some inorganic links to your site" What we can do? We lost a money, our client lost money, lost position, lost users... Anyone have any idea to contact with Google excluding reconsideration request form and forum?
-
Yes, we do this. And still Google don't process our reconsideration request postie as i wrote before.

_Did you mention that you have added all the unnatural links in the disavow link tool? I would rather suggest you to post that problem in Google Webmaster Forum and next time, when you are applying for reconsideration request, you need to create a list of bad URLs and in the subsequent column you need to mention that you have discarded them in Disavow Link option. _
-
did you test it by 404ing the page and move content and internal linking to a new URL? or not feasible?

In my opinion it's very hard to get. Many people want to speak with John Mueller, so of course we can try.. Generally we prefer to write or meet someone in real..
-
Yes, we have submitted links a month ago with disavow links tools. We tell this information to Google Europe (where we speak about domain). It's funny situation, after adding all unatural links to disavow tool we get a reconsideration request bounce....

Have you tried the new disavow links tool introduced by Google. Try submitting all the links you think are impacting your site in that tool . http://googlewebmastercentral.blogspot.ca/2012/10/a-new-tool-to-disavow-links.html
If you want to get more attention, you could try posting or commenting on related posts on Matt Cutt's blog.

What is the SEO term for Tree Search Engine results when we lookup for a company?
Hi Folks, I have a newbie question: When I do a Google search for: SEOmoz i get a SERP for SEOmoz in a form of a Tree, on the other hand if I search another company, let's say PAF.ca I get individual page results on google. Question is: What is the difference between the two, and how do we usually ask Google to display results of a Company name in the form of a tree or Main Category with Subpages in the SERP when looking for that company name. For my Visual Friends, Please find attached a Print screens that could explain my question a bit more. eAQpw.jpg

Huge Hit and Bouncing Rankings Since Panda 3.3 Update?
Has anyone else seen rankings bouncing all over the place since the end of Feb? A client's site is for the term hcg which I know is controversial but we were in 3rd or 4th for the past couple of months until this update. Now for the term "hcg" the rankings are bouncing from the twenties to over 100 multiple times a day. I check them throughout the day with non personalized search, rank checker, etc to just try and keep updated. I have never seen rankings bounce around so much after an update and am wondering if this update is somehow effecting these more controversial search terms. Since The end of Feb our traffic has almost dropped in half due to the drop in just the "hcg" term ranking We have been cleaning up the site, updating lower quality content, blogging frequently and trying to build better links for the past couple months of working on the site.The problem is there have been a few other previous SEO companies that worked on the site and I don't know how much black hat tactics were used. Any insight or suggestions on this would be appreciated, we are all scrambling to try and recover from this.
