Hi,
I'm no expert, so I'm writing in a questioning way, but...
As far as I know, google doesn't like redirects. I'm not affiliated with google, but I can understand why they might want to protect the quality of their results by making sure the search results returned are relevant and of a decent quality. If people are searching for information (which they are primarily), then a bunch of generic articles and sales pages returned for their search results isn't going to impress either the people using google, or google themselves. Now, if this software and the 'method' do not use either of those techniques and actually provide genuine, one of a kind (ie. written by you) articles, then please forgive me for casting aspersions :-) As I said, I am writng really in a questioning way, and if I am mistaken in my impression, please correct me :-).
If my impressions are correct, isn't this another form of the 's' word, albeit one which is seemingly working for people now. Aside from the considerations of one's own integrity - ie. do you follow business methods that have are 'win-win' for everybody (in this case, the search engines, the people using them who are your potential customers, and of course, your own bottom line). Aside from that, any software can be 'countered' given a sufficient period of time. ie, its patterns can be traced, and if it does result in search listings that do not serve the interests of the provider (or the end user, the potential customer looking for quality information), then action can be taken to mitigate those results. So what works now, may not always work.
Thanks,
Rebeccak.
Thanks,
Rebecca
