    Do people at Google review your spam backlinks manually?

    I always wonder, do the people that work at Google count and review your backlinks manually or does a special algorithm and software does it automatically? What if you build a bunch of spammy backlinks? How can a software be sure and make a difference?

    John Mueller from Google answered this question and apparently all your website's backlinks that are marked as spammed or suspended to be spam and reviewed MANUALLY by Google employees.

    What do you think about all of this?
    Google apparently employs thousands worldwide, and I'm sure they have enough funding to pay their employees to manually review spam backlinks. They probably have teams dedicated to backlink quality. Could you image going through thousands to millions of suspicious spam backlinks? I think it's great that they do this manually, and it's not some bot detecting the spam, that could get a little worrisome.

    I was wondering about this myself. So the algorithm and software would make Google employees aware of a possible problem and then employees would go and have a look to manually check the links? I think this is best checked by people and not software.

    It is interesting also to hear what Mike says about PBN's and them being checked manually, I was wondering about this. I mean if I network with people in my niche and get to know all the people in the top and we mention each other on our websites every now and then how can Google then decide whether it is friendly linking to other relevant people in my niche or a blog network?

    Mike is right, they would need some big time evidence.

    I have come across so many discussions about excessive backlinks which is tantamount to spamming. But I am also wondering how Google and other search engines find out about those excessive backlinks? Let’s say I have posted my backlink on one site a hundred times. Will Google find out about that 100 backlinks on that site? If ever, how will Google find out about it?
