		<description>P.S. Further research showed me that this guy (or lord knows if this actually is a guy or not) indeed is a spammer. Just google the topic &quot;I Visited Your Website and Had a Question...&quot; and see how many posts he has made in various sites using the same email template. Seems he also uses different names/aliases such as &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.mail-archive.com/debian-bugs-dist@lists.debian.org/msg596329.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Rachel Hoyng&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://easypeasyuk.blogspot.com/2009/06/i-visited-your-website-and-had-question.html?zx=b19eea67dcb39b03&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Jason Miller&lt;/a&gt;, etc.

So are we to belive this is really some Jamie Spottz? You might as well go and call yourself Captain Kirk! lol</description>

		<description>Dear All,

I a web developer from Sri Lanka. My company also received this same email from this &quot;so called&quot; Jamie from the email address Jamie@peaksearchengineranking dot Nnet regarding our website. It was received by a non technical person hence this was forwarded to our IT division and I was told to have a look.

&lt;i&gt;&quot;I didn’t send this communication out to very many people&quot;&lt;/i&gt;

LOL REALLY?

The moment I looked at this I figured it was an automatically generated email. Personally IMHO its hillarious that someone offers to optimize a single sub page in a website but not the root (which just smells &quot;automation&quot; in their site identification process). Linkbacks which Jamie stresses so much in his emails are not the only thing which causes a site to have higher page rankings. Here&#039;s some other stuff you can do which I blogged about a little while back.

&lt;a href=&quot;http://harindaka.blogspot.com/2008/11/search-engine-optimization-dos-and.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http://harindaka.blogspot.com/2008/11/search-engine-optimization-dos-and.html&lt;/a&gt;

This is what we as cutomers pay these guys to do. You will see a lot of these methods involve some changes to the layout and content of an existing site. So correct me if I&#039;m wrong but I do not see how linkbacks alone will help an already low ranked website&#039;s subpage let alone the whole site.

&lt;i&gt;&quot;you computer dorks who have no life and probably watch star trek re runs all day&quot;&lt;/i&gt;

Seriously lol am I gonna recommend my company to take advice from him now? He tells others to be professional. All I got for u Jamie are these words &quot;Practice what you preach&quot;. .....And yeah I&#039;ve watched all episodes of Star Trek while I&#039;m sure you were too busy bangin chicks to catch even a single one. Oh wait I forgot, you being the super cool dude you are really dont care about star trek. Silly me :D

I wholeheartedly agree with everything KEN has said here. 

&lt;b&gt;PEOPLE GOING THROUGH THIS POST SHOULD LOOK AT KEN&#039;S COMMENTS.&lt;/b&gt;

Spammer or no spammer it is only wise to engage in SEO with someone you can see and shake hands with at the end of the day. One thing&#039;s for certain though Jamie. The only thing your spamming is helping to do is to increase the google rankings for this page and others like it on the internet. It certainly isnt helping your business. Not that I care about it really... lol</description>

		<description>Ken - welcome to Google ranking #4 on &quot;Jamie Spottz.&quot;  Who knows what the future may bring?

		<description>Co-blogger Charles uncovers a link that the baseball player Jaime Spottz played recently in Cincinnati.  Based on the evidence, it seems likely this is him, or an unusually clever troll.</description>

		<description>Remaining skeptical.  However, for what it is worth, (1) the IP used by the commenter here purports to be in Cincinnati, OH, (2) the sites in question list Cincinnati, OH as an address, and (3) the sites list a baseball training site as their first case study.

A person using the same email address -- jspottz@hotmail.com -- comments on a Cincinnati Reds site.

FWIW, I have sent another email to the company urging them to look at the comments here and disclaim them if they do not, in fact, represent the position of the company.

I also remain willing -- and eager -- to be told how anything in my post was wrong.  But I&#039;d like to hear the answers to my questions, above.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;you computer dorks who have no life and probably watch star trek re runs all day &lt;/i&gt;

Sadly, I was forced to curtail my Star Trek watching when I enlisted in the Marines and chose to be a grunt.  Turns out that while the recruiters said you could hump a portable TV up the hilly willies and down the hilly willies they forgot to mention that there no electric plugs in the hills of Camp Pendelton.

Man.  Recruiters are worse than spammers.

At any rate, I was out in the sun and the wind and the rain living the live millions of men and boys wish they could live, being paid to shoot machine guns and grenade launchers and working with real men doing actually important stuff for a living.

Unlike, you know, a jock who merely thinks he&#039;s a man because he was paid to swat a ball around a manicured bit of grass for a few years.</description>
