That’s link building for you! Google are constantly trying to hide what their doing with inbound links (and there’s a good reason for that!), I see it every time I link build. It just shows the very close relation to links and getting ranked in Google.

Google don’t have a personal vendeta against anyone – we all play on a level playing field in that to Google we’re just a site. Maybe a good site they love, maybe a bad site they don’t particularly like, but still a site.

Ultimately Google is a search engine it’s not a company and it’s not peoplen. It’s a massive network of computers that run’s on an algorithm – maths to you and me, a very complicated formula but it’s a formula none the less!

If Google has suddenly decided it doesnt like your site so much anymore then there has to be a reason (in the formula) for that.

I enjoy posting here, it’s one of the few blogs that I really have a good look round on and find multiple topics worth a few minutes to contribute to. I don’t consider it to be any part of my SEO activities…however…

Just did my round robin of checking a few stats, factoids and figures and low and behold YackYack is screwing up one of my sites SEO! Brilliant! Actually that’s a compliment to you Rob. In my Webmastertools, “What Google Sees”, YackYack is all over it like a rash showing how well your blog is indexed. Only trouble is I didn’t use relevant anchor text on my initial post as I didn’t expect to be back here so often. Dooh! Any chance of a little tweak of your MSQL? Now that’s an offer I bet you’ve never had before!

Anyway, either I shall have to go cold turkey on YackYack or I will have to turn into a “DoFollow with anchour text” whore after the next 100 day rollover.
