Could be worse. At least it's not /r/politics.

Someone doesn't know how Google works.
Those menus are not "put up," chosen, or under reddit's control. They are algorithmicly generated by Google.
It's up there because a whole lot of people go there.
[–]swedishdelight 8 points9 points10 points 10 months ago
Someone doesn't know how Google webmaster tools work. You can demote links you do not wish to have shown as the under-links for a url.
So actually, it's under reddit's control if they want to change it.
[–]Subduction 4 points5 points6 points 10 months ago
Hate to break it to you, but someone does.
Have you personally ever tried demoting links for a major site? Clearly not.
It doesn't work. Google equivocates about these being "strong suggestions" towards how Site Links are ranked, but in the real world it doesn't actually do anything.
Plus, even if it did work your demotions are only valid for three months. Reddit would have to go back over and over again.
Those are the top links as chosen by redditors, need to live with that.
[–]ottawadeveloper 0 points1 point2 points 10 months ago
Ok so, the SiteLinks link for somebody.
http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?answer=47334
Its true, these are algorithmic constructions based on what people search for. They're only generated if people search for "reddit" then re-search later for "reddit X" (in this case "reddit jailbait"). Google views this as people's search not being specific enough for just "reddit" and so tries to give you the top options.
This likely means jailbait is among the top subreddit searched for on google. So to permanently remove it, we'd have to get rid of the subreddit. Or change the subreddit's robots tag to noindex, then request all the pages in it be removed (They do do this). But that would prevent any of the links from showing up in Google.
We can demote it but you need to go back to the SiteLinks page every 90 days to reconfirm the list. And its not 100% guarenteed (I suspect it simply adds a very large negative towards its score - one that can be overridden by sufficient traffic).
Funny story - my company once asked me if I could "set up site links" for my company. They were quite insistent on it, even when I told them it was impossible - that they'd have to improve their SEO characteristics before that would happen and even then it depends on search patterns.
[–]Subduction 0 points1 point2 points 10 months ago
Just to be clear, frequently searched on Google is not at all the same thing as what the OP was saying -- he was asserting that the ranking was influenced by the visitor's search history, which is not the case.
[–]swedishdelight 0 points1 point2 points 10 months ago
Well the links are actually not 'chosen by redditors' but in reality an effect of jailbait being a powerful 'general keyword'. I doubt /jailbait is a top-5 subreddit as far as subscribers or visits.
I also had no idea how badly the demotion process works.
[–]JustSpiffy -12 points-11 points-10 points 10 months ago
Actually they're usually targetted towards the person browsing. He/She's been cookied at jail bait sites, and just admitted to us he/she goes there often... It's a very popular method of advertising online. Ever wonder why you go to newegg and all of a sudden newegg ads pop up all over the place? You've been cookied.
[–]Subduction 9 points10 points11 points 10 months ago
Please don't just make shit up.
What you're describing is called re-targeting and it has absolutely nothing to do with Google Sitelinks.
Seriously -- when you post shit like that you become everything that is wrong with reddit and the Internet.
You are dead wrong and should delete your post.

[–]rib-bit 7 points8 points9 points 10 months ago
we need more people like him to keep this place good
[–]JustSpiffy -3 points-2 points-1 points 10 months ago
No we need people with manners, you wouldn't speak to someone like that in the real world, why is it okay to correct people so violently online?
[–]rib-bit 4 points5 points6 points 10 months ago
Violently? Dude, you're being way to sensitive.
[–]JustSpiffy -7 points-6 points-5 points 10 months ago*
lololol, angry kid. I know it's called retargetting. Everything I said was true exxcept for the fact that google does it. Next time, try this statement "Google does not retarget, but retargetting is in fact very common." You'll probably do better in social environments.
Edit: Browsing your reddit history (congrats on your ridiculously amounts of karma), I was a little annoyed but now I see you are nothing more than an internet troll. Enjoy your quantified awesomeness.
[–]Subduction 1 point2 points3 points 10 months ago
So everything you said was true except the point you were making, and the accusation you made about another redditor (that he was seeing those links because he was looking at other jailbait sites) and I'm the troll?
[–]tehrahl 1 point2 points3 points 10 months ago
Google reddit right now. See how it compares to his posted image.
[–]JustSpiffy -2 points-1 points0 points 10 months ago
Damn you're right =(. I swear I've seen targetted ads from google before though.
[–]Louche 57 points58 points59 points 10 months ago*
You act as if you "are" reddit.
Reddit is made up of everyone and evidently the majority of redditors prefer /r/jailbait over most other subreddits. Thus, it is an accurate representation of reddit.
Also. Dat ass.
[–]ifatree 2 points3 points4 points 10 months ago
Also. Dat /r/ass.
FTFY
[–]reiduh -1 points0 points1 point 10 months ago
did you mean this NSFW, perhaps?
[–]metro99 -26 points-25 points-24 points 10 months ago
This.
What a pompous comment
[–]P2000Camaro 5 points6 points7 points 10 months ago
So's your face!
[–]BreadSmasher 7 points8 points9 points 10 months ago
That section shows the most popular parts of the website. r/Jailbait is obviously very popular and thus appears there.
[–]MegainPhoto 15 points16 points17 points 10 months ago
Look - reddit is paying damn good money to have that listed there!
Oh wait, they're not. Those are Google's rankings based on traffic. Sadly, those listings represent a LOT of reddit's traffic.
[–]kungffffuuuuu 3 points4 points5 points 10 months ago
Sadly? Are you a dog?
[–]MegainPhoto 0 points1 point2 points 10 months ago
You can look at my recent posts and decide for yourself if you think it's relevant.
[–]Atomyk 3 points4 points5 points 10 months ago
I just looked through your comment and submission history and can say I think it's quite unlikely that you're of the canine species.
[–]Jesus_luvs_Jenkem 9 points10 points11 points 10 months ago
No way? I had no idea! If only someone would post this every fucking week!
[–]Zimbardo 8 points9 points10 points 10 months ago
Next you're going to tell me there's a subreddit called /picsofdeadkids, too!
[–]working_right_now 3 points4 points5 points 10 months ago
...You might want to have a seat
[–]deadnakedshit 2 points3 points4 points 10 months ago
The only thing that could possibly be worse is r/picsofdeadjailbait!
[–]LettersFromTheSky 1 point2 points3 points 10 months ago
It's funny how it's all mostly porn.
[–]justanothercommenter 0 points1 point2 points 10 months ago
Conde Nast has the best almost child porn.

It keeps the jailbait away

Clothed children.

Clothed teenagers

Um, no it's not. I see F7U12, not F6U6.

Pardon my lack of interest in internet memes.
[–]logifal 0 points1 point2 points 10 months ago
How the fuck is gonewild any better? It's full of attention whores.
[–]treetrollin99 1 point2 points3 points 10 months ago
at least there grown adults, id rather look at slutty attention whores than children
you know the ID check is a "yes/no" selector, right? you only assume they're grown adults b/c that fits your tastes better. attention whoring knows no age boundaries.
[–]reiduh 1 point2 points3 points 10 months ago
Can we please replace this with /r/treesgonewild? Please?!!?
[–]atom138 -1 points0 points1 point 10 months ago
All of those subreddits are bad ways to represent Reddit tbh.
[–]razzmatazz1313 -1 points0 points1 point 10 months ago
I thought r/jailbait was closed down. guess not.
[–]ifatree 1 point2 points3 points 10 months ago
you can take the violentacres out of reddit, but you can't take the reddit out of violentacres. ;)
[–]violentacrez 5 points6 points7 points 10 months ago
:D
[–]ifatree 0 points1 point2 points 10 months ago
dude, you're like batman! how the...
[–]0bi 0 points1 point2 points 10 months ago
I think he just wrote a script that continually scans reddit for anything saying 'violentacr' so he knows where to comment (last two letters left out because of typos).
[–]fuzzynyanko -7 points-6 points-5 points 10 months ago
At least bing doesn't show r/jailbait
[–][deleted] 4 points5 points6 points 10 months ago
That's because there is no one using it to find out.
all it takes is a username and password
create account
is it really that easy? only one way to find out...
already have an account and just want to login?
