I received the same email this morning. I was taken back by the unprofessional verbiage and immediately deleted the message. If you want to swear, that is up to you, but not when you are coming to me for help. This guy is a turkey.

Maybe you should obscure the offender’s URL? The last thing you would want would be to inadvertently help them out any

Man, that’s why I never read those SEO tutorials that you get on every tutorial site. There’s so many all claiming to be the best way to have a high ranking.

Preface: My credentials are false because I’m not trying to gain link-backs from here (especially not this post).

Honestly, don’t you think it’s equally as unprofessional to blog about this person? Posting the message publicly is like a running a political smear campaign. I got the impression that you wanted to pat your own back more than provide us with real information. I clicked this article because I thought you might offer a laundry list of SEO mistakes that people commonly make. It’s a little disturbing and childish.

You cannot learn grace.

@scotttttttttt It just so happens we are putting togther a website dedicated specifically to SEO myths, process, how-to guide etc. Look for it soon.

This post was made for educational purposes, perhaps helping the next guy looking for SEO services clue in as to what to look for.

Thanks for your comments.

I got the same email recently and agree with Matt. I deleted the email as soon as I read the vulgarity. I did show it to our graphic designer because I couldn’t believe it and thought it was some type of hoax, scam, or spam. If it is for real, don’t expect the business to last long.

Anyway these reciprocal link exchanges do not really work, most of the link exchanges that are done is by Indian companies, and they will artificially increase the ranking of link pages and after start to exchange links with other web sites.

After they exchanged a couple of links they will block the pages by spiders and remove the back links. Rather go for some sponsor, paid links or off course honest webmasters!
