Dear PPl, i have been noticing for a while that algorithms of alltheweb and altavista are a bit stuffed.
FOr example on purpose i registered keyword--keyword.com and it has over 20,000 links to alltheweb and 500 to altavista.
These arnt of course real links just a problem with the algorithm.

So you know if you do a link popularity for keyword--keyword.com and keyword-keyword.com , they have if not the same popularity for alltheweb and altavista.

Im not sure whether this would give more relevancy in terms of a web site, but its very strange.

Anyone know about?
