Added for You - 888 Accused of Stealing Content
Remember the poor little bird in P. D. Eastman's much beloved children's book Are You My Mother? The one who hatches from his egg while his mother is out scratching around for food and can't figure out who he is? By the middle of the story, this confused hatchling is in the midst of a full-blown identity crisis, wandering around asking everyone, "Are you my mother?"That's how it is in the business world. We bandy around the words freelancer, consultant, and entrepreneur as if they are interchangeable, although they are not. Sometimes our clients are confused. Often we are, too. When we aren't clear about how we offer our products and services, it makes it difficult for potential clients to know whether

There is some dispute over who is behind this activity. Some say it is affiliates of 888, others claim that it is 888 themselves.

For a growing incorporation with increasing profitability and productivity, an Initial Public Offering (IPO) is the next logical step to take in order to obtain further financing. Once the corporation has fulfilled the requirements set by the authorities, going for listing is a fairly straightforward exercise.A corporation that wants to go public has to fulfill the Stock Exchange's listing requirements and the Securities Commission's policies and guidelines. It must also comply with legal and accounting requirements as well as equity conditions imposed by the Ministry of International Trade and Industry.As part of the listing process, the corporation will have to fulfill criteria like historical prof
Casino affiliate programs, the leading resource for online gambling affiliate programs yesterday announced that it was revoking its certification of the 888 program stating “These illegal activities are negatively impacting thousands of affiliates and online marketers worldwide. There a number of programming teams operating with the approval of 888 Casino which are flooding search engines like Google and Yahoo with thousands of spurious search results. This angers searchers and makes finding legitimate destinations on the internet difficult if not impossible. These rogues are also robbing bandwidth and corrupting web logs with millions of commercial messages all linked to 888 Casino. This abuse of the system tarnishes the image of the industry as a whole and can not be allowed to continue.”
Casino affiliate programs have an active forum within its site with some of the most powerful promoters of online gambling participating in discussions there. The power that they yield together is demonstrated by the search engine results that they can achieve. A page that was set up less than a week ago at http://www.gamesandcasino.com/888/casino one moderator now occupies the top spot in google for the term “888 rogue casino”. Other search terms such as “rogue casino” and “blacklisted casinos” will also provide detailed information on the 888 saga.
Content theft is a serious problem for webmasters. It is essentially the same as somebody duplicating a book that someone else has written and then offering it for half price. The time it takes to scrape a site is minimal. “Content theft is on the rise from countries such as China and the developing world. I spend hours trying to come up with original content only for it to be replicated all over the web weeks later” says Mark Hirst of Bewisebets
Another issue is blog spamming. Blog spamming is where text is written that is of no use to its audience whatsoever. The text often has links inserted into it promoting the spammers site. Examples that have been recorded with regards to 888 are quotes such as
“One would, should he caught a look of terror in her online casino eyes, be a question of waiting for breakfast”
Night and day were 888 the same in this prison room, or daughter, for it was one of the gang. Free betting are you, with sudden glints of gold in it

Why did I start up my own business, you ask? Simple. I had to.I had to because there was something gnawing at me from the inside that kept telling me that I had to. I'm not trying to be dramatic here at ALL. I finally decided on a rainy Thursday that it was time to start up my own business because I had been led to believe by my parents that owning my own business was the one way that I could never be fired.Hmmm.That was my exact motivation. By hearing that year after impressionable year as a kid, I suppose it sunk in!And guess what...they were right. When I decided I'd had enough of New York and commuting and client presentations in Kansas and Canada, I knew that I had to start up my own

I had an opinion last week. It was a brave opinion; one that I was fiercely proud of, one that fought for higher standards and our best interest, the kind that many secretly agreed with. That was the problem with it.The opinion that others secretly agree with is deadly. When it comes to supporting you, standing behind you, joining forces with you, there may be no one there. You may find that you are a Minority of One. They may whisper their agreement to you, but refuse to state it within earshot of another.Shortly after stating my rather unpopular stance, I was blasted with the anticipated hate mail followed by a slow trickle of private thank you notes and “you go girl” emails. Several days later, I wa

So how do you make extra money without working in a regular wage job. Sure if you save X dollars per hour in 4 weeks if you do not spend much you will have X times 4 dollars (weeks worth).But how would you like to make much more than that. More than that without getting into things that are bad for you. Well here is how you do it:Find something you like to do and help a neighbor, one that your parents know. Then do a really good job and get a referral or a phone number. Ask them if they know someone who needs the same work done. I mean do you really want to depend on your parents for that new bike or remote controlled airplane or new video game that you want. Can you really rely on them?So what

So you’ve decided to go out on your own as an IT consultant? Perhaps you want to be your own boss, work when you want, and of course there’s the money. You’ve got the skills and experience to do the job. Is that all you need? Not quite!The scary thing is now you have to go out and find some clients. You may belong to an agency that supplies consultants, but you’ve still got to persuade the client that you’re the best man or woman for the job.A business relationship between a consultant and a client is like any other relationship – it needs to be based on trust. To achieve this you need to build rapport with the client: smile, be friendly and professional, and show him or her that you can achieve their

There is some dispute over who is behind this activity. Some say it is affiliates of 888, others claim that it is 888 themselves. Whichever is the case a company the size of the one in question should be taking action against any form of scraping, spamming or copyright theft. At the time of going to press Cassava holdings have declined to enter into a dialogue with Casino affiliate programs stating that they are not interested in a resolution at this time. Casino affiliate programs have requested that 888 introduce the following measures:
“To resolve this issue CAP has been in negotiations with 888 Casino for the last six weeks, but so far they have declined to comply and have stated they are not interested in a resolution at this time.
CAP had been seeking the following action items from 888 Casino on behalf of their affiliate members:
1. Issue a public statement indicating that 888 Casino does not condone nor will they reward content theft or illegal marketing practices by their affiliates or marketing consultants. If affiliates or marketers are discovered to be engaged in these practices their accounts will be closed, they will be banned from the 888 affiliate program and their proceeds or commissions due forfeited.
2. Addition to the Affiliate Program Terms and Conditions a provision stating the above policy.
3. A good faith effort by 888 Casino to adhere to these policies now and in the future.”
Clearly this kind of behaviour cannot be tolerated and it is in the interests of all webmasters to make a stand regardless of what industry you are in. If we send a clear message that any webmaster small or large is caught doing these things will be thoroughly hounded by the international web community, then we can stamp this kind of activity out for good.
You can sign a petition that will be sent to google, yahoo and all the other major search engines All you need to do is enter your name and website if you have one. The petition requests that 888 and its partner sites be removed from the search engine indexes until this issue is resolved. Please feel free to sign it even if you are not involved in the industry as theft is theft and together we can make a stand.
Sign the 888 petition here.
