    Is this a business forum or a playground for wannabe businessmen?

    I agree with whatever The Jackal is saying :p

    Old School SEO VS New School - any opinions?

    Matt, I'd love to continue our conversation. Unfortunately, however, I would require at least three days to absorb your failure at the challenge which you so eagerly embraced. I'm out of here. Goodbye and good luck to you all. If any mods should read this please ban me and delete...

    Old School SEO VS New School - any opinions?

    Yes indeed. I did that too. That's why it's on my web development portfolio on my web development website which is page one on Google for the keyphrase web development. :)

    Old School SEO VS New School - any opinions?

    No Matt. The guy with the valeting website that I built washed my car. It was a wonderful form of payment which I thoroughly enjoyed. Thank you for your participation.

    Old School SEO VS New School - any opinions?

    No. Let's not drop the subject. I've just had Matt telling me that he can tell the difference between paid links and unpaid links. So, let's wait a little longer and see his response. I'm sure I'm not the only person who's dying to check out his response.

    Old School SEO VS New School - any opinions?

    I had hoped to walk away from this but it looks like you're forcing my hand. So, here's your example: On the page www.parkerandhobbes.co.uk/port.php you'll see a page with some strategic text links. Your challenge is to tell me which links are paid for and which links are free. I'll be...

    Matt, I'm trying hard to conduct myself in a decent manner here. But it's something that is proving to be a challenge. So, in the spirit of staying centered and at peace I choose to no longer have any dialogue with you. I wish you all the best wish your career. Have a good life. Old...

    Old School SEO VS New School - any opinions?

    The answer is a resounding no. I've watched just about every Matt Cutts video on Youtube. As a matter of fact, I was checking out one of his interviews yesterday. I'm well aware of the things he says. What you seem to be forgetting, with respect, is that Google is an advertising company. They...

    Forum rules prevent me from calling you a smug and deluded idiot but you can probably guess what I'd like to say to you right now. :)

    Old School SEO VS New School - any opinions?

    I think that's a good question. The most high profile example I can think of is the German BWM website (ref: http://blogoscoped.com/archive/2006-02-04-n60.html).

    Old School SEO VS New School - any opinions?

    Matt, I have lots of folks who sometimes give me links absolutely free of charge. Those links might say, "If you're interested in blank then visit blankity blank dot com". Sometimes I haven't met these people. They live in different cities. They're not related to me in any way at all. They're...

    Old School SEO VS New School - any opinions?

    What I'm saying here is very simple and I'm so proud that I can happily have this conversation without talking like a tek geek. It's like this, I could easily show you three websites and give you ONE FULL YEAR to investigate which sites use paid links and which sites have 'genuine' natural...

    Old School SEO VS New School - any opinions?

    And to anyone who says that Google can tell the difference between a paid/unpaid links and will come down heavy on those with paid links, I have an idea. Come forward and together let's try an experiment. Give me your web address and using some online software I'll spam about 2,000 forums and...

    Old School SEO VS New School - any opinions?

    I can see that there's a couple of people in our midst who are determined to offer extremely technical explanations whenever they speak about Google. I'm sure that impresses some people. The trouble is, unless you have some serious inside information directly from a Google insider (and that...
