Default Is this a spammy page?

the site is atlantanation.com


According to Google tools:

Keyword stuffing: "Keyword stuffing" refers to the practice of loading a webpage with keywords in an attempt to manipulate a site's ranking in Google's search results. Filling pages with keywords results in a negative user experience, and can harm your site's ranking. Focus on creating useful, information-rich content that uses keywords appropriately and in context.

Doorway pages: Doorway pages are pages specifically made for search engines. Doorway pages contain many links - often several hundred - that are of little to no use to the visitor, and do not contain valuable content.


The articles are syndicated (not even theirs apparently) but you really have to scroll down all the way to the bottom for the real interesting stuff. This site is ranking in the top 1-2 keywords in my market for the last several months.

It's a sorry excuse for a website that spams and gets agents to pay to be listed there.

I have seen agents pay (google "buckhead real estate", see #2 search result) and get very high rankings from their pages.

Have you done anything about it. The bottom of that page is just crazy. There is no way google wants anyone to do that!!

Very spammy!! Google charlotte real estate and check the #1 site. More directories than I've ever seen on a website. State recip pages, keyword stuffing to the max etc. Been in that #1 spot for a long time!

Default Re: Is this a spammy page?

it looks like a news site which makes it somewhat irrelevant for those keywords but they've probably got alot of sites linking to them with those keywords as anchor text.
