Why are SE 'spammers' frowned upon...

[Jel]

by the pompous? assuming they don't bait and switch, the surfer ultimately ends up where he wants to go, just at the expense of 1 click. How is that any different from what a 'clean' affiliate does? Both do whatever it takes to get SE traffic, and ultimately leech off google (and to a lesser extent yahoo/bing).

like... How are tube spammers any different to affiliates with twitter accounts? Both are leeching from the internal and external traffic of eg xhamster and twitter. Aside from a few traffic powerhouses like the tubes, and a handful of tgps and blogs, the rest are leeching in one way or another, be it traffic or authority. So why do some cast their eyes down on 'spammers' as if their work is any less moral/clean/fill in the blank?

For that matter, how are tube 'spammers' any different to paysites who submit to tubes?

What's your take - dirty leeching scum, or a different side of the same coin?

Everyone likes a winner they can feel good about. No one likes a winner that reminds that they have no clue what they are doing

Spamming = desperation and/or laziness.

For some people, desperation and/or laziness does not equal a good way to go through life.

Maybe that's why? I don't care one way or the other. LOL

Laziness? Why, is it "easier"? Surprised there aren't more GFY millionaires...

If you think SE spamming is easy, you need to be better informed.

Because you take their traffic for purposes they didn't intended.

Like walking into my doctor's office and trying to spam the patients in the waiting room with shit or another doctors services.

It depends on how you define spam.

If it is keyword/ phrase manipulation and not trademark spam -- that isn't spam if you deliver a useful product or service that a consumer would expect from the search. If you use inappropriate terms to get search results for adult material -- that is being a dirtball.

I don't approve of our trademark name being spammed to deliver some other camsite nor our affiliates spamming some other cam site to intentionally deliver only ours -- I don't mean an affiliate presenting multiple competing cam sites in his domain -- I mean our trademark name in his URL then promoting some other competitor with our name -- that is subject to legal action on our part. There is honorable competition and there are dirtball tactics.

If you spin pages of "search links" or crap like that it's more internet junk pages that are an annoyance. However, that sort of thing is the responsibility of the search engine not to present as SERPs -- the ''algorithmic holy grail.''

Two people competing for the same resource ...

One launches a propaganda campaign to make the other feel bad, look bad etc..., then, if that perception is adopted by everyone, you have an army on your side against your enemy and can take the resource for yourself.

Google does it all the time. All companies/politicians do it all the time.
