Fascinating November Usenet (alt.internet.search-engines) discussion thread here on blog comment spam -- from the perspective of the spammers.
What's more your sexy lingerie site would be a pr8 right now if you also did guestbook, memberlist, and blog posts instead of dropping to a pr6 as it has. (it was a pr7 last month). You're becoming too ethical and that is stopping you from doing better than you can.
Well, we can't have that, now, can we? The other person responds, no doubt with accuracy:
You assume too much, when it comes to making money I lower my ethics considerably.
All sorts of fun (as in "like watching bugs under a lifted rock") discussion of guest books, pageranks, dummy websites, and other ways to game Google for fun and profit.
