Slightly over a week ago the IM forums all over the new came alive with yells of panic due to Google terminating numerous accounts of what appeared to be legitimate users.

This is the reason why I totally love SEO and organic traffic generation.

The final analysis is it’s not adwords or media buys which make you money its traffic and I absolutely kick ass at getting traffic from search engines and the social web. The reason why I kick ass is … Continue reading Google Adwords Account Slap.
