How Teoma / Ask Jeeves Defines Spam

One of the most definitive sources of the Teoma / Ask Jeeves spam policy is on their Site Submission Terms page. Among the techniques that will keep you from being ranked are:

  • Having deceptive text
  • Having duplicate content
  • Having metadata that does not accurately describe the content of a web page
  • Including off-topic or excessive keywords
  • Fabricating pages to lead users to other web pages
  • Showing different content than the spidered pages to users
  • Using intentionally misleading links
  • Using self linking referencing patterns
  • Misusing affiliate or referral programs
