Attention software authors: your sites may be at risk
| If your site was dropped from Google, submit a reinclusion request. |
It has always been a bad practice to copy content from other sites. Google is not happy with duplicated content. Here’s a confirmation from GoogleGuy:
… I have a strong hunch that we’re going to be taking a closer look at sites that are just scraper sites, or throwing up a copy of the ODP with no value added.
What does it mean to software authors? All program descriptions in your pad file must be original (not a copy from the homepage of your site or your press release). This is of great importance!
By the way, if your site was dropped from Google, you can submit a reinclusion request at http://www.google.com/support/ (click the Contact us link at the bottom of the page).
