Got a link exchange request from these guys today, thought it was kinda funny. www . caraudio-speakers-subwoofer-carstereo . com/

you always want to make sure you delink links to sites you are not actively promoting.

like if I were to say
I do not really like sempo
it may have a .org at the end of it but it will usually not have a http://www.

Ummmm look at that page, I guess they REALLY, REALLY want to be the "car audio experts" - way over the top if you ask me ...

Good point, Aaron, I edited the link. I know, that's just way too funny with the URL and the on-page keyword stuffing, eh? LOL

I was thinking about this today...I actively avoid sites with more than a few keywords separated by dashes.

Google has gotten worse and worse for my searches over the past year. Generally, sites with URLs like that are heavily SEO'd and so they may not belong as high as they are and are usually just looking to make money. Sometimes I will check them out, but I find myself being much more satisfied with the results from sites that do not have URL's like that.

I agre with theJack, when going through the SERPS on google I always look at the url and if its really keyword heavy I just ignore it. Even domains with just 1 hyphen I will look at after some other results just because it will most likely be an overly optimized under contented site.

(is contented even a word lol)
