When I think of Ezine, I think of a reputable site(s). Don’t you also think of E-zine as being on the up an up? I was unethically tricked into writing a post, Ezine Link Love, to help improve my page rank. I hate to see them involved in internet scams.

Andrea from A Circle of Women and BeachBum, both pointed out to me that Ezine.org has a page rank of 0. I already knew that but assumed the links would come from one of Ezine’s other sites.

Here is the url of the scam site: http://www.ezineblog.org/?page_id=95

I didn’t add a link to them because I didn’t want to give them anything else. It states clearly on the site, you will receive a Page Rank 5 linkback and Technorati Top 100 linkback. I have sent 7 unanswered e-mails to the address listed on the site. My post came out on September 1st. To date, I have not received either of the links they promised and neither has anyone else I know who has participated.

Is Ezine.org actually affiliated with ezinearticles.com? If you know please tell me. I am not the type of person to write a negative post about anyone. However, it is just low-down to lie to innocent bloggers and take advantage of their desire to move up in rank! If they come clean, or give me the promised links, I will publish a post of apology to them.

It’s not nice to use people, especially if your site is supposedly reputable! I demand an answer and explanation from these people as I find it inexcusable! Answer me or you will suffer my endless wrath. I mean it and my word counts! Help me to get this scam some exposure!
