Don't worry, you won't burn in the pit of spam hell... we don't want to be a spam site. The sad thing is that my credibility is poorly reflected in this Referly post, but if you were to read it in the context of distributionhacks.com, daniellemorrill.com or the Twilio company blog it would have a totally different meaning. And that is the secret we have uncovered I think... the results of my experiment will be forthcoming
This is also why Klout is such a bunch of crap.
- mindslight 14y agoFWIW, my original comment was written in the context of what I've seen of distributionhacks (which I am not interested in, to put it mildly). I don't know if that changes your data point or what. I don't really think you've uncovered a secret - perceived motives matter a lot (for example how your account has remained unhellbanned, whereas as a 1-week old 'affiliateseo7132' would have been gone quite quickly). I actually didn't doubt that you sincerely compiled a list of recommended snacks, but the context of 'how can we put stuff in people's faces and cause them be interested' coupled with affiliate links for junk food puts you in spamming territory no matter how much meta thinking or startupspeak you have going on (these things just make for the ridiculousness of it). Though I'm sure the strength of various audiences' mental immune systems will vary considerably.
