Looks like a garbage site updated every couple days with entertainment rubbish. And it has an auto-play video ad. Gosh, what a shame.

- MikeCapone 17y agoIt isn't IMDB that has been "de-googled". It is StudioBriefing.net
- nicara 17y agoThis isn't about IMDB, it's about Studio Briefing. And regardless of whether you consider it garbage or not, it might have had value to other people - which is why they were using it, I suppose - and it appears Google has been unreasonable in taking it off the index / shutting down the ads. Either that, or we're just hearing one side of the story.
- nfnaaron 17y ago"Either that, or we're just hearing one side of the story." And likely that's all we'll ever hear. Ads are bad enough, but to be de-indexed, with no way to know why or how to fix it is scary from a business point of view. It could, and does, happen to anyone.
- redorb 17y agoyeah no worries http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=site:imdb.com&aq=f&oq=&aqi= http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=site:imdb.com&a... shows 50mm 600k imdb.com webpages indexed / its their spam blog that did it / It immediately fired away with a audio ad that auto plays :( good riddance.
- Hoff 17y agoNot IMDB. Rather, that is for a web site with vast quantities of graphic ads surrounding a very small box of celebrity-focused text content. If it's not a landing-page advertising web site, then the site in question is certainly constructed very much like one. And based on a very quick look, the text of the article on getting banned by Google (which is reposted on IMDB) is vastly larger than the text on the other web pages sampled.
