Hi Roland, I'm really sorry to hear about your problems. A good SEO should be able to guarantee a minimum of results, and they should certainly be able to guarantee that you won't get penalized by Google as a result of their work. Took a look at your website, and yes, it could use a little help. :)

Basic SEO will always put you ahead of the guys that aren't doing it. Knowledgeable web marketing can make a staggering difference to your business online (this includes SEO). I don't care what anyone else tells you, this is a fact.

im going through the learning curve (i mean PAIN) myself with my company golforbis.com (sorry for the plug in) and it s very difficult to know what works what doesnt and so on...
friggin google (they own the world) put a "this website may hurt your computer " note below my website result because the server got attacked. i could not log into my own website for weeks! luckily it got fixed, but it shows how fragile your cyberspace "business" is. google can make u or break u in no time. same goes for those SEO companies promising u the world. We just had the world SEO conference where everyone pretty much agreed that there is no guarantee for results by doing SEO "stuff" , but u can accidentally hurt your own business by doing it, and loose out on revenues by not doing it.

Isn't this kinda the old-school social bookmarking (and link directory) thing?
Maybe it is just me, but I thought that was the past.

We all pass links and in an environment ripe with spam and devious manipulative scammers... you have to think. In this case it was an old friend from Digg but just as I was push to the stumble crumble point breaking, so had he. It turned out great though I apollogized and explained, we reconnected the icon to the meat behind it.

I gues that brings home your point. The communication is the key. NOT the begging or personal greed for clicks. Sharing because you get along browse together at times. Its natural to talk both to and with friends sharing links and interest comon or outlandish.

This is the internet, that is how people act. With thought its easy to see the difference. Whats good and new is simple, whats driven by secondary motives always smells just like sh..ort stacked servings.

Just my rambled extended opinion.

Hi Bloggeries, we're certainly not recommending that anyone stop using social media because of fear: just that everyone should be vigilant. They are certainly extremely valuable business tools when used in the right way. :)

I seem to have the same experience with John Sullivan. And I agree with Kimberly too, the intention is more important than the classification. I must say, she's the most ethnical bloggers I know.

Well, personally for me, I find building strong relationships and clarity of communication are key. MichDdot just told me of an incident when someone brushed him off as a spammer, when all he did was share a link because he thought that this guy would be interested in the content. Mich didn't even as for a digg or thumbs up LOL! Hey Mich, I believe you're innocent ;)

The important thing is, don't be greedy. Shout once, and not too often either. Offer it if you believe it's of good quality. And unfollow those SpamKings.

Solid advice not to get mixed in the wrong circles. Although the advice is good don't be scared to use these tools as they are popular for a reason.

Cheers,

Hi cool post
what strikes me as weird is one man's spam is anothers steak
they few times I have been accused of "spamming" I go and check the person
making the accusation and I always laugh cause compared to me they are spamkings
I just do my thing and don't sweat the small stuff
But I found that people that worry about spam and trolls
are in fact guilty themselves they just think there's is LEGIT;)
and they are just those snobs that have nothing better to do
Thanks

Wow, your article opened some probabilities. Suppose you're an active member of one of tbe aforementioned communities, does this make you more of a target of a blackhat trick? It's a virtual B&E.

Hi Kim. Knowledge is power, and a way to protect yourself. Maybe we should have more of these discussions, lol.

So true Kim so many now blend between the lines. The is a strange feeding ans symbiosis between the dark and light side of business. A finance fueled yin vs yang that ultimately breeds total chaos. Change is always for the better even when it harms the now, later it led to what was.

MichDdot~Wo0T! Man all the cool kidz come here. I wanna play! I wanna play!
Let me tell you something..In all honesty, it seems that Blackhat and Whitehat are slowly being combined to sound like big happy bed buddies anymore. You know, sort of like whn I love Lucy would have been banned had it showed panties, but nowadays it won't last a week if it does not...

I like to see black vs white, unless harmful to someone else, as being an 'intent' determination, if you get my drift. What's it's being used for. What's the reach? It's a shame that there are so many who's ideal reach is to take as much as he can away from the next guy, instead of using it to expand in healthy ways, bringing others up with as vice versa.

Ah, this whole SU Digg thing? Shit..(excuse my language Patricia) whenever you deal with marketers, yes, especially the ones closest to you, always prepare a back door. I had to learn that the hard way and blog about sh*t all the time. You'll lose your *ss. Alternative profile protection? Ify? Unethical maybe? Why? So you can leave everything you strive to protect wide open for those who are creeping in through your windows to steal your sh*t? Gimme a break. Does having ethics equal expressions of stupidity?

To da hood Robin!
