No - it's two sides of the same coin.

Google is penalising not the un-natural sites - it is penanlising sites that may have perfectly good pages and content but have arrived on SERP by what Google determines as 'forced' - Google bots do not understand a sites intentions. It could be someone giving away widgets as opposed to someone selling widgets for profit.

It is determing the SERP of the pages - not what the site represents. Subtle difference.


Tamecrow - as always well written - if the Internet was to digress into a Totalitaristically run entity - ie Google - then the Pigs would rule for a short period only. At the end of the day we have freedom of choice. As Pakistan is about to find out and to its cost.
