Target.com's Aggressive SEO Tactic Spams Google

Posted by kdawson on from the wide-of-the-mark dept.

eldavojohn writes "Greg Niland is blogging about target.com's aggressive near-spam search engine optimization, and is more than a little critical not only of how this affects the most popular search engine, but also why it will probably persist. If you want an example, search for 'Exercise Bike Clearance' and click the first link."

    Target employs SEO. For a company their size that's diligence. Now list companies in the Fortune 500 that neither know nor care about SEO and report back how much that's costing the shareholders.

    Extra points if you mention HP whose web technologies are for a technology company nothing short of incredible.
