New SEO Hack: How To Spy On Googles Search Engine Evaluators

Google has an army of search engine evaluators ready to manual review (and penalise) your website?

They contract over 10,000 active evaluators to review sites.

And, your site could be next!

All it takes is for you to get the thumbs down:

And you’ll see a dramatic decrease in traffic (more on that later).

But don’t panic.

Because today I am going to show you-

  • How to check if a search engine evaluator has ever visited your site
  • How to get an instant notification when they visit your site

And more importantly than that…I am going to tell you exactly what you need to do if they have paid you a visit!

First all you need to do is setup my custom Google Analytics segment.

Once you have done that you will be able to track all of Google's search engine evaluators on your site.

You will be able to see-

  • If it has, which page they reviewed and when

If you did fail, then don't worry.

Just read through my advice here which will put you on the right path to getting it fixed.

And no matter what you do!

Make sure you spend 30 seconds to setup this alert so you get an instant notification anytime the search engine evaluator teams are looking at your site.

So tell me:
