InfoWorld reported that Google’s Custom Search Blog, which is hosted on Google’s BlogSpot platform, was flagged as Spam and was registered by a new user.
According to the report, Google quickly learned of their mistake and took back the Blog, removed the content made by the “new owner” and restored the blog.
While I did not see this occur personally and there is no information on Google’s Custom Search Blog about this occurrence, this could be a sick attempt at “link bait” … as people are trying to make more of this than they should.
Personally, I don’t see why anyone would use BlogSpot … it is a faulty platform for Blogging. Heck even Matt Cutts, SPAM Czar at Google is smart enough not to use it.
The main reason I started the SEO Revolution was out of frustration. Frustration at all of the lies and misconceptions that are posted in forums, given as advice in teleconferences, and even taught in live workshops. "So why didn't all of this work?" " Why wasn't my site successful?" " Why am I still stuck in a rut?"
