Interesting Read.

Why am i even looking at this, i am sweating my nuts of in Spain on Holiday - it must be addictive !

The internet, determined by return results of the search engines - is and will constantly evolve, like man has. Though i agree that ppc, listings, and any other deception of relevancy is bad news.

It is relevancy that will win the day. The internet is for the user, not the SE's or the SEO's, its all about the user getting what he/she wants. We've all seen the demise of SE's, for breaking this rule.

However with relevency, spam has to go as well, ghost, doorway pages and other little tricks, as a website should be manipulated with its content being the most relevant, not tricks to fool the search engines.

Its a game to me which i like playing, but i don't feel justified in criticising the SE's for decieving the searcher, if i am deceiving the SE's, as i am as guilty as them.

Drawing back on SEO strategies, their should be a conscensus of quality and not decieving quantity, then i beleive there are real grounds in which, to insult, abuse and enlighten the user of these gross deceptions by SE's, hopefully with them coming clean (definetly).
