I just received the following email:

We wish to thank you for linking to our site http://major-well-known-corporation.com from http://simple-information-website.com. Unfortunately, it has come to our attention that this link does not comply with Google's Webmaster Guidelines.

It is important for us to ensure that our site complies with Google's terms.

Please add a rel="nofollow" to our link from this page and any other page on your site. If you have any questions, please let us know.

Thank you,

LOL

I won't nofollow their link. Instead, I will simply remove it from my site completely.

p.s. The major corporation in question is on my TV about a dozen times a day.

    Wow, that's very strange. First I've heard of someone emailing asking for a rel="nofollow" link.

    I only linked to them to begin with to improve the user experience for my visitors, by linking to authority companies in that niche.

      Maybe they think it might be the start of a negative SEO attack? :confused:

    I responded with the following:

    Your information has been removed from my website completely.

    Thank you for proving again that Google really doesn't give a crap about
    "user experience" as they claim.
