If I may quote the Holy Bible, “as I have observed, those who plow evil and those who sow trouble reap it.” So, Mark sent me an email with a link to Google Purges The Payola:
“Search engine marketing consultant and blogger Rand Fishkin recently compiled a list of more than 70 sites with names like LinksFactory.net and DirectoryDump.com, which have been relegated in the past three weeks to the hardly seen back pages of Google’s (nasdaq: GOOG – news – people ) results, even when users search for them by name.” Via Forbes and Andy Beard
So, I have to let you know: don’t mess with Google. I’ll drop it again: Don’t. Mess. With. Google. Got it?
I had an amazing site, memes.org, and then I turned to the dark side when I lost the dedicated server. I turned memes.org into a Splog and then it was all toast. Google removed memes.org completely from Google’s index. Completely. 100%. There was nothing left.
