When I searched for the word SEO on Baidu today, I discovered a particularly interesting phenomenon. Baidu Search Engine Optimization Guide ranked fourth in the natural rankings, second only to Wu Wei's SEO forum. Langyu SEO and Liweihui Forum are still missing, but it is not because the ranking has dropped, but because the entire site has been deleted from the search results by Baidu.
When I opened the Baidu Search Engine Optimization Guide, one look at the homepage and I could almost conclude that the cause of this SEO crisis was manual intervention! Let’s take a look at where it is.
There is a place to vote on the homepage of Baidu SEO Guide. The votes are for three people who have made positive contributions to the development of SEO in China. When I click on it, I find that there are nine people, namely Ni Yingwei, Hu Baojie, Wang Tong, and ZAC. , Le Si Shu, Qiu Shida, Robin, Guoping and Fu Wei. I believe that these nine figures are all influential figures in the SEO world. Among them, Wang Tong and Fu Wei are relatively familiar to the author.
Before Langyu and SEO were K-ed, one was ranked first and the other was second only to Wu Wei. So, why are there no names like Jiang Hui or Lang Yu in this selection, but only Wu Wei? The author believes that this is because Baidu has not recognized Liweihui and Langyu at all. Langyu’s short-lived flash in the pan can be forgotten. Liweihui’s reputation has rivaled that of Wuwei in recent years, and Baidu’s K station is still not immune.
Everything happens for a reason. As long as you think about Baidu's adjustment of the SEO keyword, it is not difficult to find the strangeness. The reason why Baidu puts the official search engine optimization guide in a prominent position on the homepage is perhaps to remind all webmasters: webmaster friends, be careful and abide by SEO disciplines, otherwise, those two gentlemen will be yours. example!
Speaking of Baidu SEO Guide, let’s focus on the chapter of cheating and punishment. Baidu’s definition of cheating is relatively broad and is pasted as follows:
"Any behavior that exploits and amplifies the strategic flaws of search engines, uses malicious means to obtain rankings that are inconsistent with the quality of web pages, and causes a decrease in the quality of search results and user search experience will be regarded as cheating by search engines."
"The specific cheating methods are inexhaustible. The Internet is developing dynamically, search engines are also developing dynamically, and cheating behavior is naturally developing dynamically. The most basic definition rule is whether the proliferation of this behavior will affect the search system. , ultimately harming the user’s search experience.”
From these two paragraphs, the author can explain it to everyone in a popular way: search engines inevitably have loopholes and defects. If you take advantage of these loopholes to obtain rankings, it is absolutely cheating. It is inevitable to use manual means to delete the website. Because the normal algorithm cannot solve the problem of illegal ranking (if the core algorithm is involved).
Langyu SEO has completely violated Baidu's taboos technically. Whether Liweihui's large number of irrelevant links and frequent IP changes constitute cheating, I dare not draw a conclusion now.
Finally, the author believes that Langyu SEO has been targeted by Baidu, and the chance of coming back is very slim. As for whether Liweihui can come back, only time will tell.
