    Over 3,000 sig links have finally disappeared and no change in the SERP. Interesting that it has taken 9 days for the DP links to largely disappear, but no update on SEOChat yet at all.

    Yes, Bob -

    However, it seems that the kink network has kicked in at this point. With today's new backlink update the page is now showing 3530 backlinks!!!! Up from a mere 469 in the previous update.

    Today being Thanksgiving here is the US, I do not have time to go into this further at this time - I'm cooking :rolleyes: .

    :D Happy Thanksgiving all !!! :D

    Mine went up to 3400 with the Coop.
    There are few other links pointing to the site without the Coop involved.

    So has anybody a plausible explanation for what is going on with the signature links?

    I still can't get my head around the implementation of filtering out sig links. If they do that then they must filter out all forum links, not just a signature. I can't see how they would go round checking the HTML of all these different foras and look for the sig code.

    The filtering has to be triggered by something. Easy to filter if the filename is contains showthread or the domain string contains forum(s) or post. I can't see they would make the effort of checking each link whether they are sig links or not.

    Bob it could be the Google dupe content filter that Shawn has talked about recently. Apparently (and I've seen this happen with some sites) the pages show as just the page title with no description when doing a site:domain search then they are dropped from the index. It used to be thought that those entires in the index just meant that the pages were unavailable at the last spidering but it would now seem it shows pages on their way out of the index. It is certainly feasible that Google will see some of the anchor text experiment posts as dupe content as is consequently gradually pruning them from the index. There is some anecdotal evidence to support this in the ad network forum as members report their network weight plummeting (mainly from forum and directory sites). Doing a site: search on their sites reveals only a few pages with a description and these are the ones that count.

    If it is a dupe content filter in action it will help level out the playing field a little and help put an end to sites using tens of thousands of backlinks from spammy directory pages to get a first page SE entry.

    2 things on the sig link thingy.

    a) In general, you are voting for yourself - and this is not what google intended - they want votes from other sites to yours.

    b) certainly with VB, the code goes something like this :

    <!-- message, attachments, sig -->



    <!-- message -->
    <div>message goes in here</div>

    <!-- / message -->




    <!-- sig -->
    <div>
    __________________<br />

    which is probably easy to filter out

    Maybe someone could try a global replace on <!--sig--> to a space and see what happens (but I suspect it's more complicated than that)

    Here is totally off-the-wall theory. Many of the forums have been talking about a duplicate filter and pages dropping off. If Google has this capability, it not that far out to think that Google could implement something similar for links.

    For example, blahblah | Text Link | blahblah. Google could be looking at the surrounding text around the link to see if there is a duplicate pattern. It would easily filter out most forum signature links and most duplicate link directories / farms.

    Not totally off the wall - see four posts ago. ;) I think it is unlikely that Google have a specific sig link filter otherwise all sig links would disappear from the backlinks results - they wouldn't just target individual pages. Doing a site:dpforums +sleeping bags shows many 'Supplemental Results'. Shawn has stated (this thread) that these are in process of being dropped from the index as they have not been crawled for a few months. I've seen this happen on sites small enough to be able to notice which pages have been dropped. It is not inconceivable that 100 or so of these results are being dropped each day.

    I do not like seeing sleeping bags slip even slightly in the serps. Can't wait to see how deep they slip and if they climb back with addition of signaure links.
