The funny thing about this whole controversy is that they're getting more organic links to rapgenius.
When the penalty is taken care of - they may be sitting in a better position than they were previously.
- d23 13y agoI don't think organic links matter much at this point when you can't even Google their name and find them on the front page.
- joelrunyon 13y agoThat's why I included "When the penalty is taken care of" in my statement.
- d0ugie 13y agoIf you're right, and were this actually intentional too, well, that would be genius. But given that their traffic is maybe off two-thirds now and that it is unknown how long google will leave the lights on (weeks, maybe months), during which time this will be long-flushed out of the news cycle and it becomes harder and harder to recover, and harder to secure things like more capital when you look this stupid, that's a high-risk bet. I'd say sabotage is more likely.
