Google penalizes Video Bloggers for Keyword Stuffing

by Roger

Google recently announced amongst the inner SEO circle headed up but Matt Cutts that they have developed a way to penalize video bloggers who are ‘Stuffing’ their video blog posts with keywords!

After a final rush of development activity at Google HQ where they pulled an all nighter in the Labs a statement was released this evening by Matt.

Blackhat SEO techniques are the bane of our lives at Google and it has been brought to our attention that after year’s of work from the Google team our endeavors have to take a new twist. We recently started indexing Video posts and have been very concerned with the results from some authority figures using ‘Keyword stuffing’ and other subliminal techniques to hypnotize their visitors into action’s that they would not normally take like buying that blogger’s latest sensational ebook!

A key example of this technique is shown below from the authority blogger Michael Martine who mentions ‘Search Engine Optimization’ and ‘SEO’ a total of 57 times in what is sub Seven minute video post!

Another example of how overdoing keyword’s like ‘Microsoft’ will get Chris Brogan penalized under Google’s new system.

Mr Cutts added after the Interview that this will be ‘Google’s number one focus in 2009′ and that every kind of new technology encompassing speech to text translation and interpretation will be utilized in the mission to overcome these ‘Unfair Practices’.

When confronted with the news Mr. Martine was heard to say “Hell yeah, I totally keyword stuffed that bitch” with no further comments after his lawyer intervened.

Mr. Brogan looked in shock when we confronted him at his beach front property and was just managed a ‘No comment!’ before closing the door.
