Search engine spammers really piss me off in some ways. But, FWIW, they're obviously really good at what they do. So, I don't feel bad about going after them for trademark infringement on two terms that I have had trademarked for many years.

Before they use a site name or catch phrase in their meta, the should make sure they aren't going to get a c & d from a company's sheisters.

Taking a site's name in vain, popping up number 1 in the engines, and advertising another site with a trademarked site's name is gonna get them at the wrong end of an expensive trip to court. Not expensive for me, because they're gonna be paying MY sheisters as well as theirs.

Thats ridiculous though when you sit back and think about it.

They have the ability to spam the engines. (not a bad thing)

They have the ability to turn up on top for a given search term (again not so bad)

They convert like SHIT off pure gold traffic because they ARE NOT sending them to the site the surfer searched for.


Se traffic should be the easiest thing in the world to convert, especially if your surfers find you by searching the a site name. You know exactly what they are looking for if they do that, and makes them easy to sell to.

Runnin a site in the meta and not sending the searches for that site to the appropriate sponsor is like running a huge advertising campaign for Pepsi but only selling Coke in the shop.
