Google’s Hypocrisy
Thanks you for visiting. Please consider subscribing to the RSS feed.
Virtual Marketing Blog is reporting that Text-Link-Ads has been penalized by Google, dropping to 43 in the SERPs for their own name despite a PR 7 ranking, and points out Google’s hypocrisy on the issue of paid links in general and Text-Link-Ads Adsense spending specifically. Good stuff, especially since I’ve been waiting for this shoe to drop. Google had been going after big-name bloggers primarily, but I believe this is the first time they’re going after a major link broker.
I just wonder if it matters? TLA has great brand recognition amongst those buying and selling links, and a strong affiliate program, so does a SERP penalty really matter? Except for pride, of course?
Can’t wait to see the response.
