WHOIS OWNER PREVIOUSLY PENALIZED – 1 BIG GOOGLE RANKING FACTOR?

‘WhoIs Owner Previously Penalized’ is “the owner” of your domain or a domain you are buying has been penalized by Google for this website or another website that previous owner currently or priorly owned. If the webmaster or domain owner has been previously penalized for performing invalid activities in a website, then all the other websites owned by that owner would be scrutinized carefully. Google considers this as a negative influencing factor.

Below is an example of the use of ‘WhoIs Owner Previously Penalized’.

How to check if your previous domain owner has been penalized by Google:

Running a website search – site:yourdomain.com keyword – yields no results. You should do this on any domain BEFORE you buy it.
Your website is not ranking well for your brand name is a dead giveaway. Even if your website doesn’t rank for much else, it should at least do well on that one keyword.
The entire website has been removed from Google’s cached search results.
Your website URL listing – when you eventually find it in Google – is for a page on your site other than the home page.

There are a variety of ways to check, indirectly, if a domain you own or are considering buying, has or had an owner that has been penalized on this or another domain they own. Sadly, I’ unaware of a simple lookup tool that does this, hence my ‘indirect’ method.
