Hey guys,

I remember I went to an adwords seminar a while ago about using adwords, and the question was asked "can i pay to have my website included in the natural search results?" and "can i pay to improve my natural search ranking?"

The emphatic google answer was "NO WAY!"

Anyway, recently searching through google (recently i mean over the last couple of weeks), i get results where every second natural result is an ad-type link that often has little to do with what i searched.

Anyone else experiencing this? Or am i maybe infected with a Virus!!

Google sucks now. And yes, the paid advertisers and mega-directories have taken over the results.
