Over the past few months, Google has really pulled off its gloves in dealing with online spammers that have mucked up the Internet with endless reams of spam and worthless content.
It has always been a pet peeve of mine, to see very well written, high quality content trashed down to the 5th or 6th page of Google results, because the first couple of pages were controlled by keyword spammers.
Don’t get me wrong – I have nothing against using keywords to get traffic. After all, how else is Google supposed to identify whether your content is relevant to search results. Identifying relevance is the easy part, but the hard part for Google (up until now) has been identifying meaningful, quality content.
