Google is my enemy as my website is not listed for no 1 spot for keywords. I hate them . LOL

Google is just a search engine, none other. lol

I'm not crazy about google either. Up until a few months ago I rated on the first page in google, as well as in Yahoo, Ask and others. But I've completely disappeared from most google searches, while I'm still on the first page (often spot #1) on other search engines.

My site is very relevant to the keywords I focus on. I'm sure that there's just some issue that the google spiders have with my site that, if I figure out what it is and "fix" it all will be OK again. But I don't have the time & resources to keep on top of the latest google SEO techniques.

If you are asking about the commonly used phrase "Google is your friend"... It is typically directed at people that ask questions on forums that could be easily answered with a simply/quick Google Search... Kinda like RTFM...

Google is great it gets us lots of new sign ups each month. I can't say anything bad about it

Google is not your friend... it is a company built to make a profit everyday.

Think MS is evil, just wait until google gets done with the webhosting community... and every other community they can take over.

I've already been on the wrong end of googles move towards dominance... it is not a nice feeling... although, one of the best things that ever happened... made me wake up... and move my business in a lot of different directions.

Google can be your friend if your website is well optimized and it brings you the traffic you need

LOL
it really depends on how you define the word friend

[ElTino]

The "Google is your friend" expression is often used in forums by people who recommend others to use it in order to find a solution or an answer to something instead of asking dumb questions.

Smart people use Google.

Google is not your friend or enemy. Just another tool for your business to make money.
