This is kinda moldy news..

Google has 2 red herring NO NO's in the seo world:

1- Claiming you can get client rankings and specifically mentioning Google (eg: if you claim you can manipulate search results on Google - you are toast!).
2- Magically getting 10's of thousands of backlinks in a few months.

Which one did the Inc boys break? Who knows... Pick a card...any card.

I do know that if you break rule 1, it is not a time frame ban, but a manual "beg and plea from your knees to get back in" ban. It is the one golden rule of google and seo firms.

SI made up for it, by bringing the booth babes to AdTech last week ;-)

Any seo firm worth it's salt, won't put all it's eggs in one basket. I'm pretty sure the seoInc boys will survive and be back. On the other hand, they broke the pro seo'ers survival guide rule #1: stay off the radar!

I sure look forward to seeing them at the next show too ;-)
