Breaking: Linda Ikeji's Blog Has Finally Been Removed By Google

So sad. After several attempt by her enemies especially the hacker called Mr Aydee, they've finally succeeded in geting Google to remove the site after they lodged a campaign of copyright infringement against her. This must be a big blow to the multimillionaire blogger who is Africa's number one. She is expected to release a statement on this. Earlier in the day she told her readers that she's been trying to get a domain name but the internet squatters have hijacked most of the likely name she cud use. That's a multimillionaire business google has just shut down! Couldn't they have verified all this allegations against her and know that it's the handiwork of hackers and haters!

They should also have known that most people in Nigeria actually registered on blogger cos of her(I guess)


Moral of the story,...keep ur private life private.

shulren order !!!!!!!!
What lesson have you learnt? Always remember God when you get to the top because holy spirit will remind you when the hour is nigh. The book of Mathew 10:19 says But when they arrest you, do not worry about what to say or how to say it, at that time you will be given what to say.
But i am glad that linda ikeji mediocre blog is down, very unprofessional she will join green on top red on top yellow like she wan blind person. at least she will open a more professional site now!!
See as she done fall yakata after she love to humiliate everyone. Public disgrace for stnpid girl.

Linda Ikeji reminded me of my step mothers goat back then fisayo, she likes to steal garri from our own flat when she know say her madam flat differs . Worstly she will ensure no one is around, run through the palour into the store and dip her diseased mouth in our garri grin The day my bros caught her na die!!!!!!

In Nigeria you don't brag when you are making it. Why the luxury cars, travel tours, splashing of money to people flocking your site on your blog, even your peers will be talking sh*t about you when you ain't with them. Showing off in Nigeria is a crime to the evil ones. Next time Linda keep it low and don't brag. Now you have learnt there's enemy within kindly get back strongly and be careful. No one even your followers wants your success.

Most sensible comment so far

Greetings to you from the Special One, Krumbaga!!
The Special One extends his heart felt sympathy to Linda on the closure of her blog either by Google or by herself ( perhaps she's moving to a self hosted platform and has decided to shutdown ).
The Special One would want to highly congratulate the Primal, I do call him the Oga at the top. You can see that Mr Seun has taken the day. That's a difference between an inventor (Mr Seun) and a Blogger.
The Special One is in cahoots with some of the views shared by nairalanders.
Linda learnt her lesson too late ( whether the blog was shut down by Google or her, it was overdue). I can't just fathom that a celebrity blogger like Linda, after raking in millions per year will still want to be controlled and directed in her responsibilities by Google.
from the Special One : " the thinking mortal would not want to accept responsibility ( eg by Google) but learn to SEEK responsibility" If I'm to interpret the Special One's saying, it means
man would not just like to belong to a group but want to be recognised in that group (esteem
needs). Linda has been blogging for over a long period of sundry and didn't thought it wise that it was high time she left blogger and started her own self hosting CMS. If She were to be, perhaps from America, the uproar and constructed criticisms from her followers would have made done that since (she wouldn't even get as much recognition and sponsors), but in Nigeria where things work differently, she is celebrity.
Think of renowned bloggers like Darren Rowse of Pro blogger, Pat Flynn of smart passive income, Harsh Agrawal of shoutmeloud, there is none that uses a free service like what she is doing. This people planned for the future of blogging well by buying up all closest domain and parking it to avoid competition, using the best dedicated servers as much as possible and more importantly paid for a service ( That's what keeps the world moving; you receive and give back, not just receiving, receiving and receiving). That is why Mr Seen will always be better than Linda.

Food for Thought for Linda
-Professional bloggers pay a lot to secure and maintain their servers because they are always the subject of attack. I could remember Harsh Agrawal saying he pays over $500 per month to WPEngine just for Hosting alone.
-they want to be on top of their game and as such will always embark on innovative means to please their followers. I could remember Pat Flynn saying he spent over $30000 per month on expenses ranging from theme design (over $2500 per theme), pod cast, app for mobile users...
-They learn to diversify their investment. Due to the uncertainties of life, increasing your sample size by diversification would serve as a cushion in event of losses. According to the Gambler ruins by successive losses: " Even if a series of ventures is profitable and eventually yields a profit, there is nevertheless the possibility that a run of losses could dissipate the resources of a player and eventually forces him to quit the game. The Special One Objurgates such happening to Linda.

I, Viktor could remember when Pat Flynn said someone was impersonating him and provided a link of the site to be reported to webmasters. In less than an hour, the response gotten was awesome. It shows the people highly appreciate the service he's rendering to them

The Special One believes it is not yet over for Linda; there is still a second chance for her, but now she must utilise it very well.
He has some recommendations;
-Linda should be ready to dole out at least a royale of her income for the upkeep and maintenance of her purported self hosting platform. Let her be aware now that there is no longer the distinguished "Matt Cutts" security which she has been benefitting for free from Google, but there is still the Noble "Mr Seun" security which she has to pay for now (Mr Seun security is just a description of Nairaland's security)
-Linda will have to take the part of sequestration from just being a blogger to an inventor or scientist. The fact that she is in the social niche is not a hindrance. Pat Flynn launched a mobile food service called foodtruckr and it is doing exceedingly well.
-humility: it is a virtue.
-Finally respect our Oga , Mr Seun.


Note: Not all were directly said by the Special One, I still added my few pieces of advice.

The Peace of the Special One be with you

Viktor
(Akalaka: the destiny of ...)

Lindaikeji got her publicity from Nairaland anyway, so she can now camp here permanently. Most of her traffic is from Nairaland. I visited her blog once because of her propaganda on nairaland and saw it was a piece of shiitt. Make she kuku stay here! she doesn't need any other platform, this place is enough for her. Without nairaland she is nothing.

Nigerians and useless sentiments.

How did you know hackers were responsible?

If you're called out in court right now Mr Poster can you provide verifiable evidence that hackers were responsible?

Google is the owner of and they made it a rule that any form of plagiarism is never allowed there.

Linda was accused of that and Google investigated it


You think they found nothing and decided to pull her site down?

I'll tell you one good thing about online publications - you can't cheat date.

I can republish your work and claim it is mine but the date of publication will always reveal that you uploaded it first.

Onegai:


It wasn't about business rival, since last year, several writers I know complained that Linda Ikeji was stealing their content without crediting them. It wasn't that she was sharing common gist, she would lift passages they wrote, pictures they shot and post it on her blog and MAKE MONEY OFF THEIR HARDWORK. Without giving them a kobo (she could have afforded to). Please she should stop calling haters and God, abeg, it's only in Nigeria people who steal will call on the Lord's name when caught.

Imagine if I showed up and picked up your paycheck end of this month, all because I am more popular in the company than you, will you be smiling?
undecided ***Deep sigh***
Both blogs of yours barely have one post per month and almost always start with an apology for not posting on time. What content are you talking about?

Linda Ikeji eats and breathes blogging. It's everyday.

But why evil?


~A question comes to mind; does google have the right or sole right to take down anyone's Site when Google itself is also a website just like any other site?

Can they take down Yahoo or Wikipedia?


I don't just get it! Who is in-charge of Hosting all the sites in this world?

Did "Linda ikeji" commit the said/allege Copyright Offence?

If true, she committed the offence, what happen to other 99% blogs that seems to commit the same offence?
Google does not have the right to take down sites that are not hosted with them but in this case, the free blogging platform that Linda uses is owned by Google. I think it's a dumb idea for her to have remained with blogger for this long giving silly excuses like, not wanting her site to get hacked. She was busy making money that she forgot to think like a business person.

unfortunately folks, i think we the gullible public have once again been had, as usual.

would anyone like to guess who exactly the aye fellow is working for?


the way linda's minions have been bleating "haters", sorry, "four legs good, two legs bad", is the typical manner in which paid trolls usually operate.

its all a script.

imo, she most likely needed to go offline for a while, to clean up her site for whatever reason, same thing nl does every so often.



as per husband matter, who's to say she's not married? Possibly to a non nigerian.

the above post is just some fiction i'm typing.

i have absolutely no sympathy for this woman. she lacks the least sense of modesty and humility, always prancing and preening about her success, and inundating the interwebs with fabolous tales of wealth and cars.

linda, your shtick had always been about other people; you made your fame and fortune through tattles and gossips, other peoples lives made your pot of gold, and yet you lacked the humility to downplay it. no, you had to be all in-your-face with your baubles to prove a point. you kept needling other women to look up to you, you kept going on about "hard work"

but you have no idea what hard work is. plopping lazily in bed with your silver-spoon-provided laptop and casually trawling the web for other peoples content to cut-copy-edit-paste is not hard work.

hard work is the woman who went through the gruelling months of NYSC, toughed it up and traversed the nation looking for work, suffering dejection, sex abuse, and disappointment. hardwork is the teacher/secretary/nurse busting her buttt off to make ends meet.

so yeah, cut it out with the victim mentality;you are no more entitled to our empathy than those lazy celebs who abandon their craft for endorsements and then blow it all up on exotic cars and sh1t.

next time life deals you a solid hand, keep it a little subdued.

Google would not act on hearsay. There must have been some evidence of plagiarism for them to suspend her blog.

Hopefully, she will learn some lessons from this brouhaha.

Sometimes it takes a little set back to set someone back on the right track.

Nigerians and their sympathy tales... Why are we always looking at issues in 1 dimension... Will google jst wake up one day n shut someone down... Don't forget google is not a Nigerian company, neither do they operate the way we operate... For your info, LIB is gonna pay 100k for each of those stories she lifted if found guilty... So Nigerians pls enough with the tales by moon light n look at issues constructively... Also there's absolutely nothing wrong in buying up a domain name in anticipation that a big company or individual would come to you to buy it off you...
