Those of us who have written on line know the devastation caused by Google's Panda.
This program was created to exclude items written on paying publishing sites. The intention was that Google would label paying sites as 'content farms' and shove them to the bottom of the list.
The reason Google was so anti writing sites that paid was because it wanted to introduce its own site which didn't pay.
This resulted in most paying sites going down, such as Triond. becoming non-paying as Wikinut, or stagger along as Hubpages.
As 'everyone' uses Google it controls what everyone sees or doesn't see. A truly biased 'index'.

That's sad to know. Hope things will change for the better.
