Content, is.......well zero (there is none)







Also to add further to this.

      ROTFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      When you do bonehead searches, you get bonehead results.

      Google can't fix stupid.

      However, google just had record profits once again.

      Sure. They just plain don't know what they are doing.

      Facebook, on the other hand, on the eve of their stock
      offering, saw profits drop.

      Google gets all the news today as well, as they just
      open up "Drive."

      If you don't know what the buzz is about drive, well,
      just shows how much some people actually pay attention
      to what's really going on in the online world.

      Google just keeps going on and on and on...

      Get on board, smarten up, or be left behind.

      Your choice.

          Google has changed it's plans now. They are focussing more on targetting internet marketers who build backlinks to get their sites up THAN trying to improve the quality of their searches. This got proved with the latest update. They forgot that many sites that have higher quality content are actually the ones that do SEO stuff. So taking them ALL down instead of taking just spammy sites with low quality content, is going to hurt a reader's experience who comes and tries to search for something on google.

          No, spoken by a person who does not care about google.
          Does care about doing bonehead searches 1,000 times
          a day to follow SERPS that change every second.
          Does not make a site to get in on some high paying
          keyword, but creates a large, authoritative site, money
          secondary. Does not give a rat's behind about whiners
          about google.

          Stop whining and start doing something constructive.

          Google does not need us. Period. They have billions and billions
          of sites already to choose from. More each day.

          Adapt or fail. Your choice.

          Stop blaming google. Google is a business that looks after
          THEMSELVES, not you.

          And as stated, judging by their profits, well, they just
          keep on truckin'

          You should do the same.

            Sure you care about Google. You spout off about them quite often.

              Clueless is as clueless does

              So idiotic that so many people here sit around all
              day and do searches for "make money online."

              I guess I'm just different. I work on my sites and get
              traffic. Silly me.

    Google wants more money.

    Like all of us.

    People need to get that idea in their heads. These changes aren't about quality. They're about Google getting paid more. As 'PaulGL,' the unknown IM attacker pointed out, Google keeps on earning higher profits.

    They don't care about YOU.

    Why should they?

      Why should they?
      It is all good as long as the quality of searches are upheld. The moment the readers will stop finding useful content that they're looking for when they search, they'll start trying more search engines and if they find stuff there, like Bing. They will slowly realise Bing is better and switch slowly. Google is a leader as long as it's quality is upheld : )

    Why would someone who claims not to care about Google keep posting in SERP/Google related threads all the time? Surely... ahhh nevermind.

    Give it time people!

    Another interesting element with the 'make' site - there strongest links are using blogspot - so they built a link farm on Googles servers right under the nose of the giant.

    With the amount of times I've seen that blank blogspot blog being linked to as an example of Google messing up, I won't be surprised if it stays in that position merely because it has gained so many (context relevant) backlinks through forums like this!
