I run a website with JW Throat that covers sorority initiations. Before Panda or Farmer or some similar update, we were third from the top in a Google search for "sorority initiations" (without the quotes), now we have disappeared so low down the ranking that I have no idea where we are.

However I have been cleaning up the site recently, and I just looked to see if this had improved our Google ranking, it had not (or at least, not yet, but I am still working on the site) However while checking, I noticed that the 5th search result for "sorority initiations" (without the quotes) is now a page on a Google group site, which gives a longish extract from an eBook followed by a link to buy the full eBook.

About three years ago I did some web work for a friend, and in exchange he spam posted all the newsgroups for me. That post is one of them, and three years later it is still number five in a Google search, and bringing me in sales!

So I may be a "dirty filthy spammer" (at least by proxy) but it is worth it!
