Excellent link bait. Mr. Bindl is known for that, if I remember correctly he once publicly endorsed blog comment spam and was linked and trackbacked like hell for that.

War damals eigentlich nicht als solches gedacht.

Are you serious?

It wasn't meant to be a linkbait, but somehow it just happened.

Sometimes you forget about the language you're currently using when dealing with multiple conversations/emails/... at a time.

I'm really surprised what I read in your blog... "the user gets what he wants" with search engine spam, making it very different from email spam, and so on. Hope you can clarify. I nofollowed the post in the meantime, maybe it's all a misunderstanding.

Sort of. I mean I started in the SEO field 6 years ago and being 17 it's kinda tricky to get clients or be able to spend lots of money on content. So I went down the fast and easy way by using techniques SEs might not like too much.

These days I still do borderline stuff in order to see how SEs work and where the borders are. But for clients projects it's a completely different thing as you have to obey the rules in order to be succesful in the long run.

Philipp, how about if you come over from Stuttgart for the next "SEO Stammtisch" on July 8th and we'll discuss in person? Otherwise we could just meet in Stuttgart sometime in July.

He'll delete all mail when he comes back, Matt's auto-responder says :)

Btw. kudos for not deleting the phe*termin spam in this entry above mentioned. A kind of spammer solidarity ;-)

Tadeusz, you're also more than welcome to on July 8th in Munich. :)
