I'd be very worried about google pulling the plug. Considering how much traffic comes from organic search results, it could really hurt.

It is an army isn’t it? And no, most won’t get it but I can see that Judy has made progress and is pointed in the right direction. If you think you are catching flack you should check out www.raincityguide (dot) com/2008/02/12/greatest-real-estate-agent-in-the-world. Ardell is getting crucified. I could care less about the contest but went into a rant when I saw how she was being attacked on he own blog. So once again, so much for free speech when it concerns REW. Keep up the good work Greg! Some of us really do listen. ~Mack You said;

You're naturally garnering links all over the place by taking the contrary position. If there's a lesson to be learned here, it's "write linkbait, not spam." I'm sure your blog carries weight on its own, but you're ranking b/c people are linking. Where it ends up will be determined solely by the level of authority this site has.

Create authority for my site by continuously adding good content to my own sites and blogs. I don't understand a lot about seo but this contest has taught me about things I just wasn't sure of. I've always tried adding content and keeping up, but maybe I didn't do it consistenty enough. The light bulb went off a couple times reading some blogs I went to because of this contest and spent some time reading through. Some of the learning has been provided by the team I'm on and some from sources such as this blog and others. But I still don't understand why some people are getting so serious about it. It's like holding the tv remote, if someone thinks it's stupid or a spamfest, then just change the channel and don't watch.

If she didn't take the time to notice whether or not I allow keyword anchor text, I'm not going to waste the time to contact her. The only time I would possibly do that is if the person dropping links was also contributing quality comments to the post. No, I didn’t email her.
