Blogs & Websites Hit by Google Links Hackers! Performance Systems International Inc./Cogent Communications Users Possible Culprits:
By Marc Chamot

Your worst nightmare an unrepentant traffic killer to your blog and website!

These hackers come to your site and remove Google links to articles and stories they don’t like! They do it swiftly and quickly without you ever knowing about it. It took me months to piece it together.

This is an excerpt from my letter to Google.

Once again someone has removed all of my Google blog links on blogger. I use ad sense and it’s imperative that Google search come to my Blog for all of us to make money. I was doing fine for the past three weeks until these people 38.100.21.138 (Performance Systems International Inc) [Label IP Address]District Of Columbia, Washington, United States, 0 returning visit came on to my blog. I use your Google service and I help promote your ads and I am a loyal Googler as millions of us are…

I’d like to know why these postings and other linked postings have been removed by these people from Google search engines, it’s happened a numerous times within the last nine months since I started blogging.

Every time I get a constant rise in daily blog traffic from Google to the high forties then I get an IP address registered to Performance Systems International Inc. and then about a day later all of my Google links to most of my recent postings are gone! And my blog traffic from Google declines to less than 12 daily.

Here is a posting on another Performance System International website about these problems. Don’t get these guys confused. The Performance System International Inc. that wrecks havoc to your site is really someone using Cogent Communications services out of DC.

I understand from blog searches and phone calls that Performance systems International is now Cogent Communications out of Washington DC. They are an Internet provider and they believe that it maybe a subscriber abusing their system.

I have forwarded a copy of this letter to Mr. Kelley of Cogent Communications so they can investigate for abuse. http://www.cogentco.com/us/

I understand that Cogent also has ownership of all 38----------- in IP addresses and I’d like for Google to ban all IP’s numbers beginning with 38 from access to all of my blogs. Or please direct me on how to do it.

My blogger blogs are

Re: Removal of Google search postings by Performance Systems International/Cogent Communications out of DC. These culprits devastated my Google traffic count after their visit a few days ago. I averaged forty daily Google searches into my blog to less than 12 a day now…most of my Google links to recent blog postings have been removed a day after these raided my blogger site.

Bloggers on the Net say that these are Bots and web spiders/crawlers that steal your materials most originate from IP address 38. See vBulletin at http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showthread.php?t=76662&page=35

People don't realize that it affects your blog and website when they intrude into your space.

It's obvious that Cogent Communications need to do more to police their criminal elements who use their services that wreck havoc on other people's sites.

Get free stat counter for your blog and website! It will give you all IP addresses of culprits that want to do no good towards your site. http://statcounter.com/ is the best thing around for your site!

These are the lowlifes that have been doing damages to blogs and websites around the country.
