- Perceval 17y agoNo no. I don't mean locating good content and putting it in a directory. I mean actively searching out bad content and then making sure that it never appears. Google's approach is to actively search out good content and try to make that rise above the noise. My approach would be to actively search out noise and then make sure that never pops up in search results.

- ThinkWriteMute 17y agoThat's not entirely true. Google actively de-lists non-content pages. Ask any SEO IM.
- Perceval 17y agoI wonder to what degree their de-listing efforts are algorithmically driven (using Page^H^H^H^HSpamRank™), and to what degree they are ad hoc reactions to obvious/reported abuse.
