A very prominent local DWI firm hired a company for SEO work. It used the same link building spam commenting scheme. It was easy to spot, the comments were merely cut and pasted from my blog post with the firm's link attached. I contacted the firm and the attorney personally apologized. He had no idea what his SEO company was doing. Still, my spam email folder is filled with SEO companies promising Google Gold if I just let them promote my site. I can see the allure for our colleagues. I can't count how many times an attorney has told me that they spent XXX amount of dollars for a website and the customers aren't pouring in. SEO companies offer a quick fix for sites without relevant timely content. RG Mark,
