Google Advertorial Update Mockup<\/strong><\/p>\n I ran an indepth analysis on cognitiveSEO<\/a> for Interflora and some of its top competitors, that are still ranking.Here are some of my findings.<\/p>\n 1. <\/strong>The Interflora backlink profile does not look more unnatural, that any of its, still ranking, competitors.\u00a0They all have low quality links<\/a> from :<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Unnatural links are the penalty,\u00a0obviously, and this is because most of the trust of a site is carried through links, these being the epicenter of any Google ranking. But in this case, Google might try to enforce<\/strong> another existing rule from their guidelines<\/a> …<\/p>\n If we take in consideration Matt Cutts’ recent\u00a0affirmation that paid advertorials are to be treated as any other link, based on Google’s\u00a0quality guidelines, this strengthens\u00a0my belief\u00a0even more.<\/p>\n Coincidence? I do not think so. Most of the stuff that Matt Cutts says on his social media accounts is “measured”,<\/strong> taking in consideration that any wrong wording could lead to wrong conclusions made by the SEO industry.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/cognitiveseo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/google-advertorial-update.jpg\" "\\"Google")
