Three Little SEOs
Once there were three little SEOs. They went out to seek their fortunes on the Internet.
The first SEO had not gone far when he met a man who said he knew the secrets of the Google, King of Search. The little SEO said to him, "Please, man, give me those secrets so I can build a website."
This the man did, and soon the little SEO had a built a website with the secrets. The days passed, and the little SEO was profiting nicely with visitors from Google's Kingdom of Search.
Soon, along came the Google. He seen that the little SEO was ignoring his rules and was very angry.
He knocked at the door of the little SEO's house and called, "Little SEO, little SEO, stop exploiting my Search!"
But the little SEO answered, "No, no! Not by the hair of my chinny chin chin!"
Then the wolf said, "I'll huff and I'll puff, and I change my algorithm!"
So he huffed and he puffed until he changed his algorithm, and no more visitors went to the little SEOs website.
The second little SEO had not gone far when he met a man who was selling an assortment of links and cheap content.
The little SEO said to him, "Please, man, give me those links and cheap content to build me a website."
This the man did, and soon the little SEO had built a website with them.
Just after the website was built, along came the Google. He knocked at the door of the little SEO's house and said, "Little SEO, little SEO, remove these spammy links!"
But the little SEO answered, "No, no! Not by the hair of my chinny chin chin!"
The the Google said, "I'll huff and I'll puff, and I'll flag your site as spam!"
So he huffed and he puffed and he flagged the site as spam, and no more visitors went to the little SEO's website.
The third little SEO went to visit the Google.
The little SEO said to him, "Please, Google, give me your guidelines so I can build my website."
This the Google did, and soon the little SEO had built a website. Nicely structured with original content and quality links, helped by his friend Plug in SEO.
Some time passed. The little SEO was getting more visitors every day, and the visitors were buying his product.
After a while the other two other SEOs were jealous because this little SEO was profiting well from his website. They had no businesses of their own left.
Along they went to this little SEO. The other SEOs knocked at the door of the little SEO's house and said, "Little SEO, little SEO, let us spam your comments to send visitors to our websites!"
But the little SEO answered, "No, no! Not by the hair of my chinny chin chin!"
Then the other SEOs said, "We'll huff and we'll puff, and we'll report you to the Google!"
So they huffed and they puffed and they puffed and they huffed, and they huffed and they puffed, but the Google wasn't interested because this little SEO had followed his guidelines.
This made the other SEOs very angry indeed. They vowed that they would build more websites to take away visitors from the little SEO's website.
When the little SEO seen what the other SEOs were doing, he created more original content and built links from reputable websites.
The other SEOs just couldn't compete. They were so frustrated they left the SEO business and started a 419 scam instead.
And that is how it came about that this little SEO lived happily, profiting from his successful website with visitors from Google ever after.

Nice. There’s a role in there somewhere for the Wicked JavaScript blocker of the West too.

The wolf should have had sandles and a Google t-shirt on. Nice work, there is legs in this… probably.

I like it. I’ll call you when I’m casting the movie version.

Nice. Brings me back to a pre-tech childhood, yet with tech. There’s some kind of irony there.

So how did they do? Is there much money in 419 scamming?

Sure, but you could end up with a paper bag on your head standing next to a sheep http://www.419eater.com/html/hall_of_shame.htm

I sense another SEO fairytale in the wind. Magic beans and giant stalks.
That is, unless I get banned from posting.
