Hi,
I appreciate your comment and I am getting so desperate now that I might very well drop all those links.
But two things:
1) Google open write that links are the key to boosting
PR. Are they schizophrenic. On the one hand they say you need links and on the other they tell me I am breaking their guidelines for having links. Errrmmm... Hello?
2) Why me? There are many thousands of sites with link exchanges reciprocal and automatic and they haven't been banned. What did I do to annoy Google.
I agree with your comments about what type of company Google has become. We all cheered when Google started, "What a great search engine" we all said. But now they have too much power, now they can break or make a web site. That is too powerful.
