Google Targets PayPerPost! Tips from Smorty!

Posted by User ImageMelo

Well, it’s all over the blogosphere. It seems that Google is out to get all bloggers or blogs that are paid to post reviews, etc. and they have started with PayPerPost.

In a post by Duncan Riley at TechCrunch, he said that “Google has commenced punishing PayPerPost bloggers by completely removing their page rank”. Ouch! Completely removed? As in 0 Page Rank!!! That got to hurt!

Anyway, Smorty has offered some useful tips for bloggers.

To prevent any future loss of page rank due to this issue you can take the following steps:

  1. Remove all sponsored post tags on each of your posts. Google can follow these tags to determine if you are being paid for posts.
  2. Remove any PayPerPost tags on your posts for “hire me” and “review me”. Any general affiliate banners are fine to keep.

I guess following these tips won’t hurt specially if it will save our blog from Google’s wrath!
