From the article: 10 Google Dont's - SEO Tricks You Should Avoid
There are some very legitimate SEO (search engine optimization) experts out there, and legitimate websites with great information. However, there are also quite a few sleazy SEO "experts" with some really annoying pages.
One of my pet peeves is finding a website that looks like a sleazy piece of junk mail, complete with simulated yellow highlighter and underlined words. They're usually designed to try and sell a self-published e-book that will supposedly give you all the secrets to "making millions from Google."
Have you been hit by a spammer? Do they send you junk mail or leave spam in your blog comments? What's Your Pet Peeve?
Emails From Friends...
- I pet peeve is when friends forward emails to me that they thing are legitimate emails to forward on. Something like the 30 page-down scroll to a joke type of help-another-person-in-this-area-because-they-have-such-and-such disease email. There are so many causes out there and it hurts to see the causes damaged from spammers.

Receiving Unsolicited Emails
- I come to wonder why spam filters can't do anything about this problem.

Glitter and Blink
- I hate giant fonts, blinding graphics, blinking icons, automated sound, 12 year old mentality graphics and the inability to leave causing me to log off to my desk top to get out.

Twitter Spammers
- The SEO spammers on Twitter are getting bad lately. The ones who send an auto-DM when you follow them, along with links to their websites and Facebook fan pages are annoying enough. Now there are those who pick up on specific words or phrases in your tweets, follow you automatically, and seal the deal with an auto-DM. And the sad thing is that many of these people have "social media/SEO guru" in their profile descriptions!
