		<description>When I got slapped by google, I became SP-Phobic but after a while, I'm not anymore. I don't want Google to rule my blog. There are other search engines aside from Google. :)</description>

		<description>I have 3 blogs go from PR4 to PR0. I always disclosed on all SPs that they were sponsored. My TextLinkAds were headed SPONSORS.

Google can KMA. I am boycotting Google. I will move my blogs off blospot when I can, but I was there before goo-goo purchased it. I do not use AdSense, use the search engine, analytics, gmail, etc.

No advertisers that I know of were slapped, just bloggers.</description>

		<description>I wouldn't anger a giant like google until I was at John Chow's level.  When you are that big you make a lot less with Google advertising methods than any other.</description>

		<description>@ Marketing Blog,
Google has it's reason mainly to improve the quality of results they return back to their users.

@ Lady,
Thanks for dropping by.  And yes, I coined it myself. Just trying to be a little creative. :D</description>

		<description>hi rocky. i like the term SP Phobia. Did you coin it yourself? Anyway, I have SP phobia in some blogs that are personal to me like my lady's confession blog  but as for my make money online  blog (i won't spam you with my links *wink*)I am willing to do some sponsored reviews once in a while. If I want to review a product or a website  especially when it is beneficial to my readers I will do the review. While I understand where google is coming from when it comes to penalizing those who do paid reviews, i also want to be able to freely do whatever I want with my blog.

I hope google won't intervene that much on how we run our sites, on what we talk about and to whom we pass some link juice. Google was not like this years back and other search engines are not like this  either.</description>

		<description>Why is every one so scared of Google thier are other search engines.

In my opinion what Google is doing is illegal they are doing this for one simple reason and that is to get us to use their Adwords and Adsense programs.</description>
