You've gotta keep on top of these guys. And check the IP addresses of those who visit your blog. Google bods are reading every word. It's just taking a frustrating amount of time for them to automate the algo!! Good spot ‘no so natural’. You’ve gotta keep on top of these guys.

Is it because they are corporate brown nosers? I watched a couple of their videos and they seem to talk like used car salesmen. Latitude smatitude.

It needs a push though looking at the backlinks. I'd also suggest having the top / most competitive search terms (locations) on the page linking through i.e. Anchour text = "Our Cheap Flights to New York" URL <a href="http://www.cheapflights.co.uk/flights/New-York/" rel="nofollow">http://www.cheapflights.co.uk/flights/New-York/</a> I quite liked the Flash Game.

Glad you like it :) Insiders View have been fairly inspirational toward our production of this site, but of course, we don't just care about car insurance (although its by far the most interesting serp currently!). What I still find hard to believe is the prevalence of spam in all serps. When will Google sort it? In G's defence, do you feel the serps would actually be more relevant if they removed the likes of MoneySupermarket of Tesco Compare - 2 of the biggest spammers? I guess from my POV - its about putting everyone on a level footing, but surely to some it is right that the market leaders (eg the ones with the biggest brand and most cash) should make up the top 10? With this in mind, what does it matter they spam between them? The little fish will never have a chance... Keep up the discussions :) Thanks George.
