Today we updated our site reputation abuse policy. The updated policy language states that site reputation abuse is the practice of publishing third-party pages on a site in an attempt to abuse search rankings by taking advantage of the host site's ranking signals. This clarification to our site reputation abuse policy will help surface the most useful search results, combat manipulative practices, and ensure that all sites have an equal opportunity to rank based on the quality of their content. We encourage site owners to familiarize themselves with this updated policy and focus on building high-quality websites that prioritize content created to benefit people, not to gain search engine rankings.
