(EDIT 03.01.2009 – Google Annihialtion has been “sold out”, but you can still register for free using the technique described below)

(EDIT 30.01.2009 – Google Annihialtion has reopened, the backdoor is still there, i am not removing this post, though)

Today i decided that it is time for a follow up post regarding the Google Annihilation backdoor i wrote about last week.

Since end of last week the website http://googleannihilation.com reads that the product has already been sold out for now, so i think that now i can disclose what was the backdoor i found.

First off, before buying any electronic product in the “get rich online” niche, i advise you to try the commonly known method with goole search “site: anyurl.com” (without commas and with the particular product url). Since most of these websites are poorly produced and in a hurry, their webmasters do not oftenly protect their sales product and of course Google’s spiders index the url of the product they sell for 10 up to 100 $. Another known technique to bypass paying for a product is searching for inurl: “cbreceipt” (mostly clickbank products, which some people buy like crazy), but the results are not going to be concrete. In order to keep it more ethical, my further advice is that in case you get access to e-products by these or similar techniques and you happen to really like it and decide it is valuable, go pay its value after all. You will at least be sure that there is actual value you are paying for.

So… in order to get in Google Annihilation i did not use the cbreceipt method, neither i used someone else’s login details. I used the site:googleannihilation.com. Google did  not give me much results. There were actually two results.

They were:

http://googleannihilation.com

http://googleannihilation.com/index.php

By nature, you would decide that the index.php URL would lead you to googleannihilation.com, but it did not.

http://googleannihilation.com/index.php was the log-in page. And guess what, they had forgotten to remove the “Register” button from their log-in module! And, of course, i decided to register and see what happens next.

(NOTICE:Since they stopped the sales, they also closed the “register” module)

After i logged in i was directed to another sales page which eventually would make me buy another product – SEO online course. I left that and proceeded to the Google Annihilation on-site software.

Google Annihilation software review:

I got in and what i found was a module to add a domain. After i added my domain (this blog’s domain) i had to fill in details about the actual website – keywords, categories, etc. Then i had to enter my header and footer html in order to generate a *.php page which later i had to upload in my domain’s root directory.

Further, this otherwise simple, but yet quite expensive software, was so buggy, that it could not generate the *.php and this problem persisted for 5 days!

The technique standing behind this service is called Three-way Links Building. And this is anything, but a first-timer around. This technique and similar to it, are actually quite popular and would eventually bring you some traffic and improve your SERPs, but it will not take much for the search engines to notice this “link farm” and, consequently, to deindex your site. At the end i decided to try the service for a week, but for 7 days Google Annihilation’s brought me just one visitor. Heh?

If you are in any case interested in seeing for yourself what this “thing” looks like, you will not be able to use the mentioned backdoor. But if you after all want to sneak a peak, drop me a comment.
