Re: sitemaps in general

Sorry if you're frustrated. If you would listen to us, perhaps you
could solve the issue instead of just continuing ranting. Rant or rank,
it's your choice :-)

The "rest of the spiders" and Google are 2 different things; some
things stay static, some things evolve. Google is not one to sit still
for long, and if it has the chance and technology, it will remove all
"unnatural listings". There is a lot of work behind that, and they are
making great leaps. If you continue to try the old tricks, they just
won't function on Google. If you work hard on getting a natural linking
structure, you have a much better chance in the long term.

Cheers
John
