Google Maps Spam report option – tiny hooray for Google

Google Maps | 11. Jul, 2008 by martijn | View Comments

Lots of SpamThis morning I read on Matt’s Blog that Google opened up a thread in the Google Maps Help Groups for Business Owners where we are now able to post our Google Maps spam issues. You can find it here

In the meanwhile, colleague in the Local Search business, Mike Blumenthal featured a little story what Google needs to do to carry the burden of Global Map Spam. Hopefully Google will take care of spam issues now quicker than ever (task not to difficult eh? )

    This is classic Google Maps Spam, using a Blog loaded with every possible keyword, repeated 10, 000 times.
    I reported it to Google, they didn’t do chit.

    The photo you are using has obviously been taken from by Flickr photostream but without the required credits/link. Please update the link or remove the image from you article.

    Some times report spam feature will be effective slowly. But within that time the spammers may already attained their targets.
