I noticed a company http://www. dnabioscience.com/ is using a SEO Company called Top-Pile. They offer a service, which they brag about at http:// engine.solid8.com/solid8/Top-pile/article01.pdf, that guarentees top positioning using a new cloaking technique.
It basicly works by buying domains and making doorway pages filled with content, then they use a .swf that looks like a loading bar that redirects you to their main page. I have reported them to Google, but their domains are still showing up in the index, and they are achieving pretty good results. An example is: http://www. establishing-paternity.com/

Isn't Google soposed to automaticly catch this stuff?
Is there anything more I can do than to fill out the spam report that Google provides?

Thanks

Reporting to google is pretty much all you can do. But don't expect results from this right away. You might get a reply after as long as 2-3 weeks!

Yes, Google is supposed to automatically catch this stuff. But they don't always. That is why people like yourself help Google become beter by reporting spam! Good going!

It looks like google may know of this - google has no record of www. establishing-paternity.com/

Cloaking is a worthless technology that provides zero value to the internet. In addition, it is nearly impossible to conceal the fact you are using cloaking.

Also, www. dnabioscience.com/ has a grey bar in google. an indication of blacklisting.

Thats amazing! When I posted this topic, they were in the results with a pagerank of about 3. I had reported them to Google about 2 weeks ago, and they already took care of it. Their site www. establishing - paternity .com is no longer in the results.

People who are cloaking or spamming should be getting pretty nervous about now :D
