SEO Wars: Who Wins?

A few days ago Rand Fishkin made a post outing another website that ranked for the term “SEO Company”. He called it an “embarrassment” to Google. I thought at the time that it was a bit too nutty for him to be doing that, but I didn’t mention. I just figured it was Rand using someone else’s success as target practice for his own self-promotion agenda. It seems I’m not the only one who thought that. Aaron Wall calls him the SEO Police.

Shoemoney wasn’t too happy about it either and posted this video:

Rand Fishkin is getting on the “manipulative techniques” band wagon, but it seems to be self-serving. Outing other webmasters for their success, even when it comes from manipulative techniques, could have a detrimental effect to the entire industry. I’m with Aaron Wall and Shoemoney on this one. Don’t buck up to Google. It’s a bit like the angels waging war on God. Who do you think is going to win?
