Introducing Makakman – The SEO Superhero Fighting Internet Crime

Makakman is here to help explain Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) and the right way to implement it. A real superhero you can actually talk to and get clear simple answers from. SEO can be a complicated matter, mainly because the evil ones out there make it so.
According to research by Nielsen/NetRatings 40% of online Britons receive news feeds, 67% of you do not know that the term for this service is Rich Site Summary (RSS).
Those same people are no doubt getting hood winked by dastardly people trying to baffle them with SEO jargon.
This is where Makakman will help slay those that try to confuse, harm or undermine website users and owners.
His enemies are:
Mr Confuser – his traits include talking very quickly, using jargon instead of plain English and deliberately tricking clients.
Black Hat – he uses all the dirty tricks he can think of to get his or his client's sites to No.1 in Google. Avoid him like the plague for when the internet police come for him and his sites he runs a mile and leaves destruction in his wake.
Spammerman – he uses underhand tactics to boost his page performance in the search engines. He also leaves a trail wherever he goes on the internet.

Thanks for the amusing
Thanks for the amusing analogy to the crazy and convoluted world of SEO. I liked how you likened the shady internet marketers of the world as evil enemies. Good explaination for those who didn't know what SEO is.
