Blogging Was Fun Before Google Existed!

I started blogging back in 1999 and created my first blog, then back in 2000 i bought my first domain. So i started before Google existed (or maybe before it was publicly known). Yahoo directory was the king of internet at that time. And that's when blogging was pure FUN. Main thing was to get listed in Yahoo directory and DMOZ and you were good to go.

There was not much spam at all!

Google created all SPAM on the internet!

By introducing Adsense, all spam started. Webmaster seen opportunity in earning easy money with that contextual ad system, so creating spammy posts, blogs, pbn-s etc... become madnes. Suddenly internet was flooded with spam in very short time. A lot of people started creating crap posts just to earn few bucks by Adsense. Some of them made good amount of money in short time as they were targeting posts to high paying ads, like creating posts about mesothelioma, lawyers etc...

When Google realized that they giving too much money to webamsters, they turned game around, because they wanted to keep most of the money for them selves

Then after they created this endless SEO game, so i started feeling that many webmasters started shaking their legs when you mention Google or Adsense Everyone becomes slave and Google started playing GOD of internet :mad: To be worst, this game is harder and harder day after day and i feel that Google want us all to work for them free (slaves). They just making changes and becoming pain in the neck, but specially to the websites which have really good things to offer. The thing is, Google is still not able to clean up mess they created....

But hey, i personally don't care I still do blogging for fun and have my 16 years old blog with good DA, PA, TF, CF... It's not on first page of Google and i don't care because there is bunch of other ways to reach real organic visitors....

Hey GOOGLE i don't care about you same as you don't care about any of us and i will never be your slave....

I guess we have to live with the times. Google is such a big company that it seems to be encroaching on our privacy little by little. Actually our blog is in Blogger and we have no complaints with the Adsense earnings. But I have writer friends who are complaining about the excessive advertisements that they attribute to Google. Oh well, maybe we can just avail of the free services of Google just to get even. How about Google Drive that grants you a 15 gb of free cloud storage?

Well things change and the evolution of the internet continues. Google is a money making machine and it wants total domination. I wish some new company would offer something new and give Google a run for its money.
