Nofollow Followon
I read Andy Beal’s Lowering The Google Red Flag article this morning, and it contains what I expected to see soon – skilled internet publishers challenging Google’s “ownership” of the web by blocking them…
Andy has been badly hit by page rank reductions because he writes paid reviews with followed links.
