I received several emails and a phonecall from the above online directory (name slightly changed to hinder spiders). First thing that makes me a little upset is that the email reminds us that duplicate content is not helpful for SEO. Then, after the email says the directory staff has redone my listing. Well, in spite of me re-doing my website wording within the past year, these guys have scraped virtually every page verbatim from my website. The gal I spoke with said to me, "Oh, don't worry, we only do that when you renew your listing" (Which I assume is annually)
If that isn't bad enough, there is now a tab on the listing called "BLOG". What shows up is some sort of feed from Wordpress, I guess perhaps "freshly pressed" or some such thing. What shows up is "Was the Irish Famine Genocide", "Parenting Politics...Not in My House", and "Time to Come Out", none of which have the least to do about innkeeping, and all with a political agenda.
She promised that the BLOG tab will be gone today, and I promised her that I wouldn't be renewing her subscription again.
