The one thing about being part of a global village is there is no shortage of village idiots. Check out this quote:
One new search company that has made it onto my newly created “Hot Watch†list of companies is Become. The recently launched shopping search site Become.com has indexed more than 2.2bn web pages and it claims to have a spam-proof ranking technology, called Affinity Index Ranking (AIR) that cannot be influenced by SEO actions taken by web site owners.
Could you be any more clueless? In true corporate double speak you’ll find this sentence further down:
Become.com however has taken some precautions, just in case somebody does figure out how to influence its search results. It has applied for patents for its technologies, including one that patents a potential spamming technique.
Ok so is it spam proof or not? Or maybe they think you just need a patent to be a spammer?
