What's hilarious is when people boast about being "in Forbes" like it's the magazine from 20 years ago, and not this parasitic SEO operation that publishes garbage on anything.
- dangus 2y agoI took advantage of this in business school. A lot of my professors considered Forbes a reputable business magazine. It was amazing, I could easily cite a source for just about anything I wanted to say.
- lotsofpulp 2y agoMaybe the professors knew and were taking advantage to look the other way to make their job easier.
- dangus 2y agohaha maybe, I got my A’s and my piece of paper, and now I’m qualified to cut costs at your local private equity firm!
- pimlottc 2y agoWell, of course; “Forbes” still carries prestige and cachet. If it didn’t, this scam wouldn’t work.
- maeil 2y ago> If it didn’t, this scam wouldn’t work. It would, as this scam relies on the domain authority, regardless of their "offline authority".
