Default Re: Safely Migrate Your Site From AA & REW

I am posting because I believe you are optimizing and writing negative posts about large web development firms (Who are obviously going to have a few clients hit by this update) in an attempt to solicit business for yourself or the firm you work for - You speak of ethics in this thread, but show very little

For those of you reading this thread and were thinking of leaving AA, REW, or any other provider for that matter - If you engage in any practice that Google does not approve of, and Google decides to penalize you for it, this penalty is applied equally everywhere including here, PREN is NOT a shelter from Google penalties as this poster tends to allude to.
I forgot to answer this, and the answer is no I am not writing negative posts about large development firms in general. It was not posted to single out rather to use as example. The honest truth of the matter is that both AA and REW have suffered hits and they are subject of much discussion around the web. I don't feel bad for mentioning either in my post no more than I would feel bad for mentioning Internet Explorer dropping the ball in my opinion with some of the antics taken place with embedded objects. I'm not anti IE but I'll certainly write and state my opinion in dealing with it.

I do respect your position and rather than single anyone in particular out I'll simply state that link farms in my personal opinion and experience are a dangerous practice to engage in and if agencies, great or small, encourage clients in the practice then would I be wrong in saying that its the agencies fault?
