Dave Pasternack of Did-it.com Spamming MyBloglog

January 30, 2007

I got a tip that our friend Dave Pasternack has taken to spamming MyBloglog now. Pretty nice, one community is his own bio page at Did-it, the other is Did-it.com main site and the third is his CafePress shop.

Linked Book Review

Dave Pasternack of Did-it.com How to Fix Your Problem

January 29, 2007

The SEO space is a buzz with “SEO is/isn’t Rocket Science” and “SEO is/isn’t like Baking a Cake” and every other silly analogy anyone can come up with.

Google MFA and No Way Out!

January 28, 2007

I know Werty showed something similar to this at pubcon, but this is as bad as I’ve ever seen it. 12 sponsored ads on a page and almost no way out but to click the ads. Yes I know there are two links in the upper right but well seems a bit like an MFA [...]

Danny’s got a great write up about Google combatting Googlebombing you should read.
Now Matt seems to feel that [santorum] is SEO not googlebombing, well I’ll give you it’s not quite ‘miserable failure’ but it’s close. However let’s take this time to point out a few other unintentional googlebombs and see if they still work or [...]

January 25, 2007
