"I am against such dirty practices and I reported several sites already to Google. Who's next please?"
lets get this right.. . . Google decided how it values a site for its search results. It decided to recognise links as a value factor. I have always sold links that do not fit a year make model format. (before Google was around even)
If Google calls into search my page say at
1968 Chevrolet car parts & cars for sale - wanted
all it has to do is decide if this page is worth listing for 1968 Chevrolet parts.
I do not give a damn how it does this. . I do not give a damn if Google does not deliver any traffic.
But I do give a bloody damn if some moronic Webmaster systematically files his way through every link on this page looking for proof that I am 'Dirty'
I think some of you have lost the plot. including you Webnauts. .
I run a free site, for classic car owners. you want to get rid of free sites?
If there is any unethical behaviour it is Google that is doing it.. Google delivers AdSense ads to a number of my pages. It fully understands I need topic specific ads on my pages. (this was their agreement)
I find Google sneaking in ads based on the locality of the user. . nothing to do with the page content. simply because they get a better click rate for local ads. That is Unethical... They are placing off centre adverts where I do not want them, sneaking them in! .
Google can and does value a page any way it likes. . If it finds something it finds that decreases that value. . Let Google do what it wants. . I am sick of hearing
PARROTS SHOUTING DIRTY PRACTISES - UNETHICAL.
If you are an
SEO - look to the pages you are working on. get some content, do not go around Blagging webmasters that do not see things the way you do..
I have well over a 5000 pensioners that use my site. . free, they swap, find parts. Paid links and Google ads helps them keep their cars on the road. You simply do not find most of these parts on ebay. Ebay sellers sell for profit.
Unethical? BULLSHIT. . talk to Google about getting their search algorithm better. .
Blagging webmasters who do not bend at the knee for Google is Pathetic....
You are a becoming parrot for Google Webnauts. .
Stop it. I have a lot of respect for you John. But I think you just took one step too close to your own
SEO principles.
Or is it fine. . If I simply say, it is a
'listing fee' ( bullshit ) it is fine If I just check out the page and recover the cost for my time to do this.... (Total BULLSHIT)
I check every photograph that gets listed on my pages. (thousands) I check every advert that gets listed. I delete hundreds of adverts daily because they are simply listing stuff you can find in the local store. I do not want them.
Do you think NOBODY LOOKS AT PAID LINKS. ( I F*&%^$g do )
I get an email every week from opposition website owners advising me that my site does not comply with Google guidelines. I simply tell them to come here and tell me to my face. pathetic Bastards.
Webmasters steal my ads. Spam me.
why not Just look after your own resposibiliites
