Google strives to return the most relevant results for every search we conduct. To that end, we encourage website managers to make their content straightforward and easily understood by both users and search engines alike. Unfortunately, not all websites have our users' best interests at heart.

Help us maintain the quality of Google results.

Trying to deceive (spam) our web crawler by means of hidden text, deceptive cloaking or doorway pages compromises the quality of our results and degrades the search experience for everyone. We think that's a bad thing.

If your Google search returns a result that you suspect is spam, please let us know using this form. We investigate each report of deceptive practices thoroughly and take appropriate action when abuse is uncovered. At minimum, we will use the data from each spam report to improve our site ranking and filtering algorithms. The result of this should be visible over time as the quality of our searches gets even better. In especially egregious cases, we will remove spammers from our index immediately, so they do not show up in search results at all. Other steps will be taken as necessary.

Google appreciates your taking the time to help us improve our service for web searchers around the world. By helping us eliminate spam, you are saving millions of people time, effort and energy. We think that's a good thing.
