"So for the most part when we can recognize that something is problematic and any kind of a spammy link and we will try to ignore it.

If our systems recognize that they can't isolate and ignore these links across a website. If we see a very strong pattern there then it can happen that our algorithms say well we we really have kind of lost trust with this website and at the moment based on the bigger picture on the web, we need to be more on almost a conservative side when it comes to to understanding this website's content and ranking it in the search results. And then you can see a drop in the visibility there.

But for the most part, like the the web is pretty messy and we recognize that, we have to ignore a lot of the links out there. So for the most part I think that's fine. Usually you would only see this kind of a drop if it's really a strong and a clear pattern that's associated with the website."

"This is the case for many spam & low-quality signals -- we'll work to ignore the irrelevant effects, but if it's hard to find anything useful that's remaining, our algorithms can end up being sceptical with the site overall."
