Author: fasfuuiios Email: Message: Currently it looks like there is no way to stop indexing of spammed sites. Link spammers even spam this board automatically from time to time. That software is very pluggable and can be adapted for any type of cms and submit forms.
I thought about global dirty solution that could haunt spam during indexing process. Here is the idea. --------- Say we have new option for 3.4 + versions: ExternalLinkCount [maxlinks] [maxpages] [nofollow] maxlinks is the limit for external links on page. (Spammers are trying to add direct links for pagerank etc.) maxpages is the limit for probably spammed pages on same host. nofollow is true or false. Filter only spam pages with or without rel="nofollow" ------- Examples: ExternalLinkCount 20 This will delete any page which has more than 20 external links. ExternalLinkCount 20 20 This will automatically ban and remove site that has more than 20 pages where each page has more than 20 external links. ExternalLinkCount 20 20 true This will do previos thing with and without nofollow links. ExternalLinkCount 20 20 false Only for direct links that play with pagerank etc. ----------- This is not ideal. It can cut normal pages. But those webmasters who use nofollow as google recommended are rather safe. This can cut blog pages with tons of good comments. Big scientific pages, catalogs and wikis are not probably safe from such dirty filtering. Anyway this is probably the simplest way to catch those sites that have tons of spammed pages. With high limits it could probably help. ------------ Example of site that is currently under spam attack. It generates thousands of such spammed pages. That is why I thought about this problem in very basic but cruel way. http://www.gksbeton.ru/index.php/peremychki-pb/item/35-novost-1/35- novost-1?start=400 Reply: <http://www.mnogosearch.org/board/message.php?id=21609> _______________________________________________ General mailing list General@mnogosearch.org http://lists.mnogosearch.org/listinfo/general
