10. Matt Cutts Got Out of Bed
As the head of Google’s Web Spam team, Matt Cutts wields incredible power over affiliates. His ability to crash businesses into the ground with just a single flick of the algorithm switch is the stuff of gambling affiliate nightmares. For all we know, Matt’s a great guy who spends his spare time volunteering at soup kitchens, but that’s not how the affiliate and SEO world sees him.
Whatever he is, Cutts is not a fan of the affiliate marketing business and his actions regularly cause major headaches. Sorry to say it, but Cutts is a major source of bad news in the iGaming world.
