Google is ongoing their fight against link networks worldwide. Google's Matt Cutts recently confirmed via Twitter that Greece was the newest country targeted for link network connected penalties.
The link networks in question were apparently networks run by SEO agencies for their clients.
It's vague exactly which SEO agency or agencies are accountable for the link networks that were penalized.
The change in Greek search results was noticeable sufficient that it earned some Cutts praise:
This has simply been the most topical link network targeted by Google, which has been making a point of going after international link spam this year. Google has been making many announcements proactively advising webmasters, mainly those with websites in target locations or languages, to clean up their link profiles prior to penalties hitting.
If you believe your websites is on the receiving end of low-quality links, you can always be positive and work on having the links removed or submit a disavow file to Google in order to discount the links. Google has been making many announcements proactively advising webmasters to clean up their link profiles prior to penalties striking, especially for international sites.
