    It is just sad and to be honest really disgusting to see people going to this length to get ahead. Of course, it is no surprise, people are doing it offline all the time.

    I just dont understand why would you want to waste you money and time destroying some else' business, instead of using that money and time to improve your own business so that people will come to you no matter how many other similar businesses are out there.

    Yeah, it takes a special kind of low-life to buy these negative SEO gigs. And an even lower-life to actually offer them for sale.

    There's a few getting a ton of business. With a LOT of positive feedback coming in rapidly. That's just sad and pathetic.

      It's going to take a lot more than just negative SEO gigs, which really only hurt the small to mid-size businesses / sites. The authority sites - which is pretty much all Google cares about - won't be hurt by these.

    This is really sad, but it's another reason to not relly just on search engines for traffic, and focus on building links for traffic and not just SEO...
