How to defend against link cloaking
From personal experience and from advice I've had before, you can expect google to be lenient. From what I understand, they will discredit the links, but make sure that it won't harm your site in any future updates, just make sure that you're not partaking in any suspicious activity elsewhere though. I did personally have this happen on a few separate occasions; first time round I didn't react and let it be. Then google did an update and gave me a warning on unnatural links. Got it sorted by demonstrating to Google that the links weren't our doing and demonstrated that we had tried to communicate with the site owner (found their details through Whois). Google then replied saying they had reconsidered my request and rankings went back up. The second time it happend I went straight to google with a resubmission request and explained the situation, they again came back and said they had recorded my input and no impact to site. So definately recommend going straight to them to let them know the situation Sean

Is it safe to do a lot of links to a new post on an old domain?
Hello Jimmy, I think there is no problem no matter how many links you build for a new page on an old domain. If you're doing quality link building (which takes time) it does not matter what the number of links is. You are probably thinking that google might misinterpret it to be spamming or using black hat methods... but I doubt it. Cheers!
