Doesn't google penalize what they view as attempts to manipulate their algorithm through spamming and link trading. Couldn't this potentially backfire?

- andreasklinger 13y agoYes of course. It is basically a variation of: "Excessive link exchanges ("Link to me and I'll link to you") or partner pages exclusively for the sake of cross-linking" plus "Large-scale article marketing or guest posting campaigns with keyword-rich anchor text links" Source: https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/66356?hl=en https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/66356?hl=en
- malloreon 13y agoin this case, however, RG is "linking to you" from twitter's domain, while receiving links from the blogger's domain. To google, this is a one way (non-reciprocal; read: "more valuable") link in RG's favor.
- RBerenguel 13y agoIt's a set of many links in the bottom of a page, mostly unrelated to the main content of the post. This lights many red flags in the Google webspam metrics, I'm pretty sure.
