It is hard enough to get search traffic from Google now you are ranking your own products above everything (regardless of merits).<br /><br />The way you have blocked the 'css method' of removing this shows just how much contempt you have for webmasters.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-66164523893357849682011-08-30T12:51:56.190-07:002011-08-30T12:51:56.190-07:00Google has hacked my website and added someone els...Google has hacked my website and added someone elses ads.
