Hilarious! I’m very tempted to give this a try, purely for fun.

If only my SERPs competitors actually did some link building :(

I can’t imagine it isn’t illegal, SEO is about beating your competitors by being better, not by ruining their work.

Hmmm maybe I need to “adjust the contracts”….

Thanks for your comment Pete.

Re Meh: I would certainly look at your contracts first: In a typical agency/client relationship the work done during a project is the clients work – not the agencies, HOWEVER

This is not a normal situation, and I would suggest any such activity outlined by Patrick – if not already illegal should certainly be considered as such (if it is indeed intentional and has not had the clients ok first)

I was actually tempted to do this over the weekend with one evil client.

Have two targeting the same niche – one which is trying to destroy my business and reputation.

Take away the links and give to the other client?

What do you mean by passing the anchor text to the homepage?

Test to see if they pass anchor text to the homepage. So far they don’t.
