SearchWarp Policy on Article SPAM
SearchWarp has a zero-tolerance policy on article SPAM

At SearchWarp, we love to promote writers who are experts in their field and write with passion.  Sometimes we get writers who pretend to be experts but instead are writing only for promotional purposes.  This is called Article SPAM.  SPAM is something that pretends to be something that it is not.

This is forbidden on SearchWarp and while we are not always successful at detecting article SPAM, we have volunteers who constantly comb through the articles on SearchWarp, flagging articles which appear to be SPAM.  If your article is marked as SPAM, it will either be deleted or locked.

Because we've been at this for so long, we routinely encounter articles on certain topics which are almost always SPAM.  These topics include:
  • Get Rich Quick
  • Make Money Online
  • Work from Home
  • Business Opportunities
  • MLM / Affiliate Marketing
  • Article Marketing
  • Search Engine Optimization (SEO)
  • Website Promotion
  • Stop Smoking
  • Stop Drinking
  • Off-Shoring
  • Forex Trading
  • Gambling / Casinos
  • Payday Loans
  • Credit Card Offers
  • Zero Friction Marketing
  • Maverick Coaching
  • Keyword Elite
  • List Bots or Auto-Responders
  • Mass Article Control
  • Registry Cleaners
  • Fat Burning Furnace / Fat Loss for Idiots
  • Vision Without Glasses
  • Colon Cleansing
  • Human Growth Hormone (HGH)
  • Miracle Muscle Building
  • Panic Attacks - End Anxiety and Panic Attacks

  • Social Bookmarking Automation Software
  • Google Ads for Free
  • Passive Income Secrets
  • Get Rid of Man Boobs
  • Learn to Jump Vertically
  • Improve Your Golf Swing
  • Tinnitus Cure
There are more topics than this, and additional topics are regularly added to the list.  (Rule of thumb: if a topic has a ClickBank product associated with it, it will likely be considered a high spam topic.)

Why doesn't SearchWarp want such articles?

These topics are popular for affiliate marketing programs so they attract people who don't really know much about the topics.  They often build elaborate web site networks based on these topics, while posing as experts.  The problem is, most of these experts get their information from "researching" other web sites, which means the information they present is just regurgitated information- SPAM at its finest.  We don't have much use for regurgitated information on SearchWarp as it doesn't serve our readers well.

When SearchWarp encounters such articles, the articles will typically be locked to allow the author a chance to either re-write the article or delete it.  After 30 days if the article is not made acceptable, it will automatically be deleted.  If you feel that your article has inaccurately been labeled as article SPAM, send us a note to ask us to reconsider.  Just make sure that the article doesn't link to any web site that has a remote connection with an affiliate program, or it will likely be zapped for good.

SPAM Links

In addition to this, articles with certain links will not be accepted.  Here is a list of links which SearchWarp does not typically accept:
  • Affiliate links
  • Redirected links
  • Links to Search Engine Optimization (SEO) or Internet Marketing related sites
  • Links to money making / work from home / work online / affiliate market / network marketing / multi-level marketing (MLM) related sites
  • Links to sites containing adult or illegal content
  • Links to gambling / casino related sites
  • Links to escort services or foreign marriage sites
  • Links to hacking / cracking / warez related sites
