Wow. This thread get's busy when you look away for a minute. K-Car: want a job?
Love the passion. As you know, it is easy to find flaws in virtually anyone's designs or services. For this reason, I never comment on things that could be construed as taste, style or opinion. There are vendors in the automotive space who do know seo. Though very few. I guess I am still a bit naive to thing that there aren't more seo companies who wouldn't utilize and understand a strategy like that indicated in your first paragraph. In fact, it is the basis for TK Carsites SEO strategy (now owned by KPA).
Be careful about speaking in absolutes. Because you can't 100% say you know 100% about anyone else if you haven't worked with them or walked in their shoes. I called out dealer.com because they know better. When I was a dealer working in retail I brought this to their attention (5 or 6 years ago) and they've done nothing about it. I called out Car-Mercial because ranking a dealer for 583 keywords that have 0 search volume is a waste of their time and a dealers money and there is no ambiguity to that statement. It's not a matter of taste or style.
With regard to your "ranking challenge" we've had and currently do have seo clients ranking for terms generating many hundreds of thousands of searches per month. One of our newest clients was ranked #1 for a multitude of relevant keywords totaling over 30,000 searches after only one month of service.
I won't get in to the specifics on a forum on our approach with the wikimotivepricing url. Let's just say it was necessary to appease google -- and not from an seo standpoint.
With regard to buying likes, followers, and +1's, we are actually discontinuing our Google plus marketing service altogether and announced this to our active clients last week. Google sold everyone a bill of goods on how "influential" it was supposed to be on search. As you correctly pointed out. It's done nothing.
However, buying likes and followers is not unethical unless you are only selling fake likes and followers. That is not our business model. kcar, I would welcome a phone call from you if you would ever like to discuss seo in greater detail. I can always use a good seo guy. I can't talk today, but would love to discuss with you sometime next week. I'm sure a guy as resourceful as you can get my personal cell phone number.
