  • 1script, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1No, you have to leave it at "sites" because this is the heart of the matter. Google treated these pages as individual sites because each of them is on separate subdomain. So, technicaly, it IS "billions of spammy SITES"
  • simpleenigma, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0The index is only as good as the algorithm and there is always someone trying to get around whatever algorithm there is. Can't so much blame it on Google, but you can judge google by their reactions to it. Has there been any official reaction?
