Getting a site banned

SEO-001 — Thu, 02 Jun 2011 16:07:54 +0000

So a lot of sites have some fun exploits they leave lying around,

here’s one:

notice the ‘next 40 stories’ link at the bottom of the article list, paging through that means:

http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/celebrities/lady-gaga/?page=2

and

http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/celebrities/lady-gaga/?page=3
http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/celebrities/lady-gaga/?page=4

but there’s actually no limit to the pages on the counter, so you can

once all these pages are indexed because of the links above…

duplicate pages

WIN!

Hi,

In the last couple of weeks I’ve spent quite a large amount of time playing with analytics, most specifically Omniture.

I don’t know about other analytics packages (well, I do but I can’t be arsed to think about it), but Omniture has a massive implementation flaw, which of course opens the door for some fun.

There seems to be no security tie between the page containing the beacon and Omniutre, what I mean is, that Omniture servers will accept a beacon ping from anywhere, any page on the internet.

Sooo, for instance, I could wander over to Apple and have a quick shifty at their Omniture beacon and then copy it into any page on the web, and that page would start contributing data into Apple’s Omniture account. They have no domain blacklist / whitelist you see.

So this is where any SEO would start thinking, ‘How can I push this ?’

Well, since the ping to the server is javascript generated, this means you can easily script the beacon transmit function ( s.t() ) to send all manner of fun stuff into the Apple Omniture account.

Obviously, once you can push false stats into a sites analytics, you’re going to be able to generate a shitload of headscratching by anyone within the organisation that spends time analysing those stats for leverage, which is usually the SEO guy.

Your SEO is shit

So you might start taking this site to pieces and finding things wrong with our site at Your SEO is Shit.

We’re playing as we go along with it, we’ve never used wordpress before and it has some limitations. Som of which we’ve fixed, some of which are being fixed, and some of which will never be fixed.

Mostly, this site is just a chassis. Imagine being asked the question

‘So have you ever seen a site which does …example… very well?’

and having to keep a catalogue of sites in your head, because not one site does everything perfectly – well.. we’re having a go, but none of us wanted to hand code a site from the ground up (we don’t have time) so slapping WordPress into some webspace became the obvious answer.

Some things we’re currently having some problems with include:

Over-riding auto generated meta descriptions
A nice 404 page
Recent searches

for example

Anyway, we’re getting through the list as best we can.

This post is a category pinch-point as well
