DISQUS

Ananzi are a joke. They issued a press release about a month after Mango Airlines was launched saying they where received over 400 searches for Mango Airlines.

One of my humble blogs was getting 400 hits a DAY for "Mango Airlines" from Google, MSN and the likes in the same time period.

Spam? Oh yes!

WTF?! Sheesh, they've gone from mad to worse...

Melissa · 1 year ago

eish - wtf indeed?
I must also say that after doing a listing last week I immediately got a phone call from an iol rep offering me an 'amazing ad deal' that would boost my ananzi rankings - it was the usual spray and pray stuff. I was never a fan and I'm certainly not now...

Catherine · 1 year ago

Wait I don't understand...so Ananzi is asking you to pay THEM to write some content mentioning you because their pages do well in these search engines? Kind of crazy.

What a bunch of loons, they must be very strategically lost to be flailing at revenue like this.

Robert · 1 year ago

Ha!! actually had them call me assuring me that they could get my company to number one in Google because they have a special deal. I was feeling pretty crap that day so didn't bother taking them to task. But I wonder if it's worth reporting them to Google for making unsubstantiated claims... but more importantly they are using Google's name for their own ill gains. I know that while many of us will just laugh there will be a fair few that will actually fall for it!

I have been with Ananzi for six months under Magaliesburg accommodation page 4 Google and Yahoo page4 . magaliesberg accommodation page 4 I pay R2000 a month and phone and fight with them regularly. My own sight ranks higher under some of my keywords and I made it my self. Please search for your self. rosewellspa

Hi Ryan

That is really disappointing. R2000 sounds like far too much to be spending
on something like this. I think you would be better off running your own pay
per click campaigns on sites like google. With that sort of budget, i reckon
you would go pretty far.

i think the term "Magaliesburg accommodation" is quite a bit broader/generic
than the others, which is perhaps why it is struggling a bit.

remember, the best way to do well on search engines is to have incoming
links pointing to your site.

also a thought - it could be a good idea to do a little bit of optimisation
for mis-spellings of "Accommodation" I often spell it with 1 "m" or 1 "c"
and i reckon it could get you some quick wins.
