1on40.com: suspended?
by Khaled on April 8th, 2008
A short time after my first blog post about 1on40 entitled 1on40: does it really get you to be number 1 in google? I am again writing about this “miraculous” SEO service. I tried to check their site today and it was suspended. All I saw was a suspended account from PowWeb hosting. I thought “was it due to illegal activities? was it reported as scam?”… Then few minutes later the 1on40 site came back! so it was probably due to unpaid hosting bill? not very professional in my opinion. Anyway, almost 15 days after I’ve submitted that old site of mine I am not noticing any changes yet. We’re not close to the end of the announced 120 days though…
