---- Inktomi Backlash

Inktomi has tweaked something- whatever they did is outside the scope of this thread. But let me make this clear: I have many older pages that are performing very well.

What I'm interested in is,

I was submitting to them but I stopped. I'm also advising clients to wait and see.

True or not, the general sentiment is that LookSmart never cared for webmasters (unless they were bent over), and that sentiment may have played a role in their present situation, at least to the extent that many people declined to play ball with LookSmart.

Every search engine is free to exclude whomever they want from their public relations. Yet, as the sun sets on LookSmart and it's history of poor webmaster relations, is Inktomi stepping up to become the latest company webmasters love to hate? The coming months will tell.
