Google did not manage to filter out the SPAM due to technical difficulties. It still has issues with it. But the process is much more advanced than it was 5 years ago.

It is rather hard for a person to say that a site is good for the visitor compared to the others when it does not have access to the others sites’ data.

Also Google is a company. If you want to rank in their search engine you need to play by their rules. Else you are free to do whatever you want with your site.

Yes Google does try to manipulate opinion but everyone is free to write and share whatever they consider right. Speaking in my name I am not militating for Google but I am milting for the people that want their site to be listed there. If this means following Google’s guidelines than that is it. If you want to have a business model where you rank a site for 1 days and have it de ranked forever and then do it again and again that you can do it. It is simply a different business model. But this business model does not apply to the majority.

It seems to me that what Google is really doing is creating SERPs that are less accurate in an attempt to drive traffic to Adwords clicks. Which themselves have become less relevant.

Then they use Matt Cutts as a distraction, with the help of you and others like you. Look a squirrel.

Google recently took a manual action against one of my sites that has been running great fro years. This site was built around a key phrase. The key phrase is the name of the site and used in most of the titles and descriptions. It is a VERY accurate phrase to identify the site, the site contents and the goal of the site for the user.

The bounce rate on the site is less than 10%. The Google bounce rate for the paste 12 months was 5%. The page views and return rate is also very good.

This tells me my visitors are very happy, possibly ecstatic, with finding me on Google. Then Google decides the site is spammy and without taking more important variables into consideration, deletes my site from Google. (That is what a manual action is.) Only for it to be replaced with sites of much lower quality that do not meet the key phrase search requirements. In other words very low quality sites. Many of these sites that have moved up on my SERP are almost identical, full of the exact same ads and have no content of their own.
Google forums has a special place to explain why Google SERPs have decreased in quality

After you view the Google forum above, please tell me what teamfortress wiki has to do with “engineer hats” or “engineer hat” and why it is on the SERP in the top 3 positions.

Spammy SEO was created by Google.

As of today June 25, 2014. I have seen lots of spam result for all Viagra keywords including “Buy Viagra”.

See this screenshot – http://goo.gl/59ps38

Now I would like to correct your very first image, where wmtontheair.com is a site of theater, no way related to Viagra. It’s a case of black hat.

I work for pharma niche in UK market, And I am keeping a track of Google SERPs since very long. So I hope Google will take more action against spam.
