SEO Losers

We received the following email in relation to several of our domain names. It seems particularly smelly to me especially as the company that is supposedly wanting to purchase the domains would have no reason to be interested in our domain names.

Dear CEO,

We are Asiaeu Network Srvice CO.,Ltd, which is the Internet Trademark&domain name register center in China.I have something need to confirm with you.We have received an formal application. An international company named “ROBO GmbH” want to apply “*********” for its own Internet Trademark and CN domain name on the Jun 30, 2008 in china. We need to know your opinion because the Internet Trademark And CN domain name relate to the copyright of you company name on internet. your company do not intervene in it,we will formally consent their register. we would like to get the affirmation of your company, you have any question,please contact us by telephone or email as soon as possible!

A search on Google revealed a blog post and comments that suggests that these people have been at it for a while.

Anyway if you’ve received a similar email and it seems smelly to you then consider making a complaint to ICANN

Never fail to get a laugh out of this type of email. Love the way they try to convince you that it is not spam even though it is obviously a load crap.

Often when I’m explaining keyword density to clients, they come up with the idea of adding hidden text to their pages. Usually I then have to explain that it isn’t an orginal idea and it probably isn’t a good thing to do. Anyway for those of you who are a little slow to catch on here are a couple of recent examples from Google blogger Matt Cutts of websites caught out for gaming search engines with hidden text.

So we did. Not that we really want to spam their site as such - and after all, we were invited

This is how your profile will look to: everyone

Profile headline:
The only reason we filled this in is because someone invited us
Personal presentation:
ezifriends.com is a website for people looking for new friends.

Let’s see how long it takes till they kick us..

And a big goodbye to all the West Africian and FSU scammers who keep creating fake accounts on our websites. Your days of trying to rip off naive, lonely and desperate westerners has come to a close - thanks to the magic of geolocation.

And don’t think you can get away with using open proxies - you may think you’re invisible but ‘weeee caaan seeeee youuuuu‘.

Who needs to go searching for examples of bad SEO when, if you wait for them, they’ll come straight to you. Congratulations to the genius who thought spamming dating site profiles would be a great way to promote their site.

In the column to the left you should see 3 or 4 text advertisements. Now in a perfect world these advertisements should be context sensitive. That is, they should relate to the content of the page. However at the time of posting, they are showing ads relating to blogging sites and software.
I can only assume that the advertisers are bidding on keywords that are specific to the html code generated by Wordpress. Now these ads don’t reflect the site content and are unwanted. In my mind this constitutes spam.
I guess until I can figure out what that code is I’m going to have to block these losers one ad at a time through the Adsense competitive site filter - aaaargh this makes me mad…!
