Thinking about it – Google haven’t found out a way to automatically manage the many Spam Reports they receive from an isolated community of SEO’ers …so how are they going to cope with using this data? Or will they just leave it to the masses and fill the internet with even more rubbish?

I’m bored of SearchWiki now. I hope Google didn’t put much work into that one.

Nice thinking,

That’s the reason things like this will never make it as a huge part of the algo.

If I was going to pick an insurance provider I think I would have to go for directline especially with unbiased comments like

“Practically everyone I know has car insurance with Direct Line. They were my first port of call, and they didn’t disappoint. Three years later, and my thumbs are still up.”

I wonder how long it will take before this system gets taken down of what it’s swearword filter is like. It raises all sorts of questions about libelous comments.

Ernest, you don’t get a free starter pack unless you win the comment game on Google SearchWiki – you haven’t put anything there yet!

“Brilliant, you’ve just instigated an online war of comments!”

When do I get my free starter pack?!

I wonder what sort of comments insiders view will get…

We’ll give a *prize* of an SEO starter guide to the best comment (positive or negative) before the weekend.
