I would neve review a product or site unless I thought it was quality. This is what I mean, it's unfair - People pay for paid reviews for PR and traffic and most (good) reviewers only review quality things. So it's still keeping the balance of good links.
Yea I totally agree with you man...GOOGLE plays us like a fool.... IF google can make money off their site....WHY THE HELL cant we? Its basically UNFAIR how Google treats webmasters! Buying or selling links? BIG DEAALLL!!! Helloooooooooo GOOGLE does the EXACT SAME thing!
Google lower the PR to many sites that sell links to make link buyers confuse, because now, some links on websites with high PR have less importance in search engine rankings, than links on websites with low PR ( after they played with us ). They dropped PR to one of my websites, i had 4 and expected 5 because i had many many inbound links, ranking very high for 3 competitive keywords. But they lowered my PR to 3, few days later, my search engine ranking position for my targeted keywords got higher. I wasn't mad, i was happy, because traffic is the most important. If you want to get the right way, stop concerning about PR, but traffic.
...and they just modified a totally artificial number and made a mental note not to consider links from your web, because the links are (sometimes) paid for and not organic. I am not trying to defend Google, but they act logically to make their algorithm as relevant as possible. You can hardly blame them for that.
There is the problem right there. How can you review a product if you haven't actually tried it? See this for interesting reading on why Google doesn't like these review posts.
No no, when I say 'I thought' I don't mean unless I assumed it or presumed it to be quality. I mean that in a generic sense. I would of course try any product that I reviewed. That comment brings added urgency TO bad grammar.
