"...there's a Google Answers question that talks about Traffic-Power "doorway pages," describes hidden links as "cloaking" and has a conclusion that "questionable SEO tactics are being employed on your website." If anything, that response on a web site hosted by Google, from a freelance question answerer paid through Google, is far more damaging than what I've seen referenced on the SEO Book blog."
Ouch! If I worked for Traffic Power, that would hurt worse than a rap across the knuckles with a ruler. Seeing that anywhere on Google.com can't be good for business.
Professor Sullivan also points to a site called Traffic Power Sucks. The owner of this site is proposing a Class Action Law Suit against Traffic Power. Eeek! Talk about a customer giving you a failing grade.
And, let's not forget the discussions about this lawsuit going on here and here (scroll down for the comments).
In my OPINION, Traffic Power is acting like a school yard bully using lawyers to push around a small business person.
Now that I've said that, I wonder if Traffic Power will sue us? Well, just remember, that puppy at the top of the page ain't a Poodle.
