So if he's building bad links to your site to sabotage you, he's wasting his time. I will say that what you're doing here won't help you http://www.davisagencyinc.c |

In fact, THIS THREAD now shows up as hit #650 when searching for "Davis Agency Inc". How is that possible? Yes, Bing shows that same search as #1 still this morning. |
