Default Google is a forgiving friend

Google is a forgiving friend:

I see this sort of thing over and over :

don’t do this, don’t do that Google will penalise you.

For the most part this is not true, Google does not penalise your site for anything other than what is on the site.

For instance, if you spam on forums, or use auto submit tools. Google will not penalise you for theses things, but instead will disregard a high percentage of those links. If its not possible for a human editor to add this number of links in a small time, or there is an unlikely pattern of link balancing.. It’s easy to detect.

Google will not negatively mark you for these, you will not have a lower PR or SERP result due to these, otherwise what would stop your competitors from doing this to your site. There are a couple of sites that I would love Google to penalise, but thankfully its not in my power to do so.

You will get penalise for what is on your site...
- don’t link out to link farms, this will harm you
- don’t get paid for linking to sites if you are not using nofollow, this once again may harm you
- be careful who you do link to, relevance is utmost important
- don’t use black hat techniques (hidden text, too high keyword density)
These are place where you may get penalise - all thing that ONLY the site editor has control over.

If you have found that you have used any of the methods above, and have been penalised. As originally stated, Google is forgiving. Let them know that you have made the changes, and will not use any of the techniques in future... and make sure you don’t use them ever again!

Marketing and SEO in total is a mystery to most because of proper knowledge. And SEO are the people who even makes it difficult. You can get different opinion from different SEO on same thing.

Good find from you. Thanks.

Google works entirely on algorithms and won't specifically track down or ban a specific site unless there's very strong reasons for it.

The thing to remember is that G wants to give relevant content to its users - in the end that's what Google is trying to acheive and if you go along with the spirit of that in your SEO you should be OK....
