Well, I agree with the anti-spamming policy, but it looks like lost cause to me, and here is why:
The blogs are the “hottest thing” right now – at least once a week there is something on CNN about the darn blogs – so there is no way the search engines would stop counting links from blogs, especcially when they roll out things like blogger.com by Google, etc.
And second, no company has the man power to manually drop-off spamming websites. It’s not only the gambling industry, it’s even worse for the “online Pharmacy”, “adult websites”, “insurance”, “hotels/travel”, “credit cards”, you name it – if it makes any kind of money – it’s spammed. Maybe the only thing that is not spammed is the keyword “redcross”, but believe me, they are comming… :unhappy:
