Not long now

So this weekend with only a few weeks to go we made a quick dash to Germany to pick up our pram/car seat/stroller etc etc that we had ordered some months ago. The new little Skoda Roomster is a driving treat compared to the Opel Agila we had borrowed off the in-laws while we saved for a car, and at 140-150km/h (remember we were in Germany) still only needs about 7.5L/100km which I think is pretty good.

Anyway picked up the goodies (car packed to the roof :)) and returned to the in-laws to drop it all off. Apparently it is bad luck to have a pram in your apartment before the baby is born in this country so it all stays in Zalany until d-day. We made an in promptu visit to some of my friends playing cricket in Dresden and next thing I know I am padded up and batting as they were one player short. Made 5 magnificent runs before the cover drive failed me AGAIN and we then ducked off home again.

I will let everyone know ASAP when the little one joins us

Hi Webmaster,

Please accept our deepest apologies for involving you in this matter.
We have learned that our previous SEO management company generated backlinks to rsacourseonline.com.au which can be found on your site.
These backlinks are now in violation of Google’s Terms of Service and have caused our ranking and visibility to plummet. Accordingly, we would ask that you please remove the backlinks on your site so that we may be recertified by Google.
The backlinks can be found at:

Thanks for your consideration and help in this matter.

Before we can begin a revaluation process at Google for rsacourseonline.com.au, all of the troublesome backlinks to that website must be removed immediately.

Hello Webmaster -

About two weeks ago our website rsacourseonline.com.au received a penalty from Google for artificial backlinks pointed to our website. Unfortunately we have fallen victim to a negative SEO campaign in which our competitors are building these "bad" backlinks to our website. During an SEO audit of our backlinks we recently identified your website as a potential source. While this may have been a mistake we are asking you to remove all links pointed to our website rsacourseonline.com.au.

You can find the links on the following pages on your site:

http://jerusalemgypsy.blogspot.com/2010/10/oh-little-town-of-bethlehem.html


We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and really appreciate your help in our effort to remove these artificially created backlinks. By doing so you'll prevent any potential penalty to your domain after we contact Google with our fully detailed report and findings. Google's been notoriously cracking down on websites that won't remove backlinks from the respective domain owners. We don't want your domain to fall victim to this.


Thank you for your cooperation.

Dear Webmaster,

We have recently determined that harmful backlinks to rsacourseonline.com.au can be found on your website.
We believe that as a result of these backlinks, our website has been issued a Terms of Service violation from Google.
It is important to us to follow the guidelines of Google Webmaster, Google Penguin and Google Panda to maintain our high search engine ranking.
We ask that you erase the backlinks at the following locations:

http://jerusalemgypsy.blogspot.com/2010/10/oh-little-town-of-bethlehem.html


Please do this immediately so that we can regain our visibility and ability to reach and serve our customers.

Our sincere gratitude for fulfilling our request.

Hello, We, rsacourseonline.com.au, have received the following alert message for all services of our website in Google Webmaster Tools:

“We’ve reviewed your site and we still see links to your site that violate our quality guidelines. Specifically, look for possibly artificial or unnatural links pointing to your site that could be intended to manipulate PageRank. Examples of unnatural linking could include buying links to pass PageRank or participating in bad link schemes.”

Hence, we analyzed our backlinks to look for artificial or unnatural links from the sites that are linking to us. Unfortunately, your website falls under this category, unintentionally making Google consider us participating in fraudulent link schemes.

Below is the list of the pages of your website that we’d like to be unlinked from:

http://jerusalemgypsy.blogspot.com/2010/10/oh-little-town-of-bethlehem.html


Finally, please keep in mind that unlinking will be beneficial to both our and your/your client’s sites and do not offer paid unlinking since we never put these links ourselves. Apparently they are results of blackhat SEO campaigns conducted by our competitors (unfortunately there appears to be no way to track and identify the abuser), and our both sites were involved 50/50% due to being vulnerable to such kind of attacks, which makes us believe that it will be fair if you or your client unlink from us free of charge, as courtesy.

Best regards,

Dear Webmaster,

I recently received notice from Google that my website has been assessed a penalty after they "detected unnatural links" pointing to my website rsacourseonline.com.au. A copy of that email has been included at the end of this correspondence. The only way that Google will consider placing my website back in their index is by getting these links removed. I REALLY NEED your help!

Following are the details of where the links can be found on your site:

http://jerusalemgypsy.blogspot.com/2010/10/oh-little-town-of-bethlehem.html


Failure to remove the link would require me to file a "Disavow Links" report with Google. My concern is that if I submit your site, in this report to Google, they may "flag" your site. That is the last thing I want is to have another webmaster go through this grief!

Your prompt attention to this matter, along with a confirmation the link has been removed, would be HIGHLY appreciated.

Sorry for the hassle & thanks ind advance for your help.
