Here's my 11.59pm theory about Google

Here's what I've noticed in my niche over the past few days with the Google update (which is music by the way) and what I believe is the Google master plan...I will just point out it's nearly midnight on Friday...so yes I've had a small amount of dancing juice and reserve the right to distance myself from this in the morning

During the course of today, crap that was on page 1 in my niche has been replaced by even more crap. OK, you may say I'm just being biased but seriously I'm not. I know crap when I see it, and to be fair some of my crap has been sitting on page 1 for the last 3 months or so.

When I say crap I'm referring to squidoo lenses that are just spouting rubbish, meaningless Youtube videos, slideshare garbage that are useless..etc...

The only reasonable stuff on page 1 now are in...guess what... Adwords, so basically if you want anything worthwhile in my niche, forget the natural listings...click the Adwords.

Google had me jumping through hoops to get my product sales page up to their standard for Adwords and I think it's all a ploy to put quality sites in Adwords and crap in the natural listing...

...just my 11.59pm friday night thought!

    That actually doesn't sound unbelievable.
    Those ads mixed in the organic search results are annoying as hell - not only for marketers but also for normal users.
