What is Bad Neighborhood?
A Bad Neighborhood refers to a group of websites that have been severely penalized by search engines, typically due to engaging in prohibited or black hat SEO practices.
These websites are typically found at the bottom of search results or not listed at all.
Your website may get penalized if it is linked to several such low-quality sites. These penalties are imposed due to the use of deceptive, unapproved, and spammy tactics such as keyword stuffing, cloaking, or deliberate excessive link exchanges.
