			<description><![CDATA[I totally agree with the author. There is no way to post anything negative on any of these negative siteground sites. I actually started my own and purchased google ad words to start to combat them...]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I totally agree with the author. There are so many negative comments and reviews about siteground and how badly they suck on the Internet, but they do an amazing job of hiding how terrible they are by creating all these bogus review sites. I have tried to post negative comments on these sites, but the comments either are never posted, or the sites do not even accept comments.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ I agree that is the decision of the Google users to find fake testimonials and or recommendations etc. Who wants a company who talks great about themselves cloaked as someone else? What I do not agree with is finding fault with stock piling industry domains that are rich in keywords and using them. I have north of 600 domains in my industry older than 5 years and I want to use them. No competitor was smart enough to buy them. If Google decides to not rank me well because I choose to use the keyword domain and not a sub-domain or keyword after the root that stinks. I frankly can]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Very true indeed - I think the solution is to avoid sites that rely on affiliate links and look for information via word-of-mouth and from forums like http://www.webhostingtalk.com. Not knocking affiliate sites - its a valid business model - but people its best not to put much weight on their recommendations .]]></description>

			<title>Unbiased hosting reviews says:</title>
			<link>http://www.alledia.com/blog/seo/sitegroundcom-and-their-search-results-domination/#comment-6176</link>
			<description><![CDATA[Why do you think other web hosting review sites offer unbiased reviews about hosting providers? Most host directories earn affiliate commissions from the "well-known" players in the industry. Do you think they are interested in publishing negative reviews about the hosts, who earn them cash? I think only hosts who pay low commission rates get negative reviews.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Great article and Steve that last image you posted yesterday just shows how successful it is. I agree with the others that this is not really an ethical route to go down. I actually remember that a while back when I was looking into Joomla hosting I kept running into those review websites and they literally never helped! If one of their competitors really cared about this, I think they could always report SiteGrounds actions to Google. At the end of the day I don't honestly think that from a users point of vide Google is producing good search results for "Joomla Hosting".]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[The problem I think is that unethical just works too well. I highly doubt the guys at SG woke up one morning and said "ok team let's find the most unethical way to boost our search rankings and do it!" They just went looking for the most effective. Which this is. It just happens to be really, really dirty at the same time. It more shows a fundamental flaw in the google system which I hope gets plugged soon. They went out and sprung the big PR hits on sites selling links, so lets hope they do the same to sites making links. The sad part is that it's probably more effective than a lot of the more secret black hat tricks like hidden links, keywords hidden under images etc. and it seems to be more than legal to do it. I think I will go and start setting up my own Extension club ranking sites. :D Perhaps not...]]></description>
