Linda Ikeji is a smart woman, we don’t think anybody doing black hat seo will survive Google’s next update. Linda is obviously not into stuff like that.
From what we understand from the story above, she used Adwords to promote her blog then.
We are still unsure if she actually used Naijan.com in her Adwords campaign.
NaijaGists.com sent Linda a friendly email few weeks back to stop using our name in her ads. We hope the smart chick understands the content of our email.
Wishing Linda Ikeji success in her career.

Dude, it’s obvious you are a fan. We’re in no way jealous. The article was not written by us. SO STOP WATER RUNNING YOUR MOUTH FOR OVER AN ISSUE YOU HAVE NO CLUE ABOUT.

Toba or whatever your name is, can you read english? Idiot. How can you compare NaijaGists with Linda Ikeji. By the way who wrote the article. YOU GUYS ARE JUST SO ANNOYING.

NaijaGists.com my suggestion for you guys is to write Linda Ikeji, give her a warning not to use your name in Adwords campaign anymore. It's a violation of Adwords policy. She is not permitted. GET READ FOR INSULTS FROM HER ADDICTED FANS. THAT'S PART OF LIFE.

Am sure this Toba is a fan of Linda and he has the right to his own opinion. That being said, you can't compare NaijaGists with Linda Ikeji.
The author of this article is a SEO blogger who understands Search Engine Optimization. The ongoing fight if am right is about using Naijan or NaijaGists's name in running Adwords campaign.

I’m not surprised because Linda is always a controversial blogger.
By the way NaijaGists.com is also a site that is even more popular than Linda Ikeji considering the fact that they started few months ago.
We are in a free world. Let the site admin contact Linda

I'm not surprised Linda Ikeji do take most of her contents from other blogs however using your name in Adwords campaign is a NO NO. I'm a blogger myself and I take most of my contents from Naijagists.com and Vanguard.com. You guys should just send her a letter.

No offence, I stopped visiting her blog way back after I noticed her blogging style is not my type. I think her blog is meant for low-level people. Well since that is her ONLY source of income, what do you expect her to do? She will do anything to gain traffic and popularity. I'm not surprised at all. Naijagists send her a warning mail and continue your job. I enjoyed your gist far far better than hers.

@gbenga..i would not say I am a fan of anybody.i happen not to be in the country, so I read everything I could get my eyes on just to keep myself up with the current events in my country..i read everything linda, ladun, newspaper, naijagist and stuffs.what I do not like is for someone looking for how to bring others down…and point of correction..it is toba and not this toba.

If that is how Linda optimizes her blog, so be it. PPC is a strategy in SEO. So whatever word she bid for in order to optimize her blog is in order.
You guys are doing well, ‘so no lele’

Seriously you guys are hitting Linda Ikeji so bad. It seems she has suddenly give up on interesting news.
As a daily visitor to her blog and this blog, I noticed whenever any news is carried here she doesn’t post it on her blog.
Linda blog is full of ad in form of posts. I don’t know why she has resulted to things like this.
It seems there is a silent competition war going on between Linda Ikeji and Naijajist.
Na wa oo

What really the problem is is that im not jealous of Linda, im very proud of her and therefore kudos to you. The problem is that most of the news Linda writes down are all illegally gotten. She didnt ask for verification or copyright or whatever from the blog owners. For her to be more popular and not to be disgraced in the later days ahead, she had better go get copyright(s) from the news source blog owners.
