Idaho,

The problem is bigger than anybody here can imagine. Google and MSN are having very big problems trying to find a refined solution.

The internet was never designed to work with redirect scripts. Many blackhat webmasters started cashing in on the loophole at least a year ago. Making a competitor disappear into oblivion was the name of the game. Now it is a free for all. Simply do nothing and your birth right to create a website becomes the property of cheap script writers who think they are the beez kneez. What they are really doing is creating an effect, in many cases an AFFECT with a detrimental element to it.

Like there are specialists in medicine, there are back street abortion clinics.

Like there is Microsoft, there is back street script writers out to make a quick buck.

You will not find a redirect script that was specially written to be robot friendly. They were written to make money or to achieve a means. Unless people wake up and realise how messed up the internet is, it will get dirtier before it gets better.

Think? Do script writers have access to the algo of googlebot? I think they do not and they write whatever it takes to get an AFFECT.
