Sucking Google - Funny Poem
As I finally crawl towards a little landmark for me i.e. 50th Hub. I decided to write an article about how fed up I am because of the SEO fighting and google's page ranking. As a matter of fact, I even thought of giving up writing because of all this mess. Actually, I am not into money, I didn't even sign up for adsense yet, but actually I was heart-broken because my word wasn't finding much readership.
Anyways, I decided not to write an article but a funny poem, to which 'everybody can relate'. I hop you all will like this little piece of humour :)
SUCKING GOOGLE - Funny Poem:
Once in my life, not so ago
I decided to be a writer
But there was a thing to chase me, Google
A soon I decided to give it a go.
I am conveying my pains through my poem
The journey of all the writers together
The mess is on me with the ever changing algo
To break my head into a wall, which way should I go?
In the night, alone in my room
Free from worries, with a breath of sooth
When I am dreaming of making love
Google haunts me for back-linking my hubs.
I am a writer
Don’t know anything at all about SEO
It is like they a want a double package
Like a girl wants Brad Pitt and Jack Sparrow.
Though I took some tutorials and read some books
But page ranking is way too creepy than it looks.
To reach the Google’s 1st page;
is harder than putting your wild wife in a cage.
Google Analytics is another mess,
You surely don’t want to mess with
It is so detailed and thorough
It can identify you as a hetro or a homo.
Google adsense is like marriage
Everyone wants to have his share in it.
It works more like a heritage system
It makes a dollar and your grandson collects it.
I am fed up from the idea of this passive income
I may get into Elance, Odesk or Guru
But for $1 for 500 words original content
It will be better if I shoot my brain through.
When Google farts, I get a few hits of traffic
And right now, Google doesn’t seem to be in the mood
So let’s share these lines to all our writers,
May I get some traffic, before I am screwed.

They may be poor by pocket but are rich by words and so they rule the world'.... so far readership is concerned...great writers are always discovered to get their ascribed recognition in due course of time for sure ...Keep writing , all the best !
hahahaha...I am feeling the same way.
Google haunts you for not backlinking! hehehhehe jolly good!
Nice piece of work Hunbbel...Had a good laugh! How true!
I Love your poem Hunbbel, You have a lot to offer. You have my vote.

@Zabbella: You're welcome :)
@Tracy: That's so sweet of you :)
T'was funny, Hunbbel. Interesting too. Still learning a lot from you.
Thank you for the tip. I will try.

@Zabbella: You may try Elance then. Elance is a much better website than any of its competitors.
Funny and so very true! You are so right on a lot of that stuff. I tried GURU for my artwork....unless you pay for the upgrade...you cannot showcase your work! Ok..so here's the rub, The clients want to see your work up-front so, if they cannot see your work...they won't bite. (a vicious circle) so here I am, a starving artist...so hungry...

Jacqui2011: I hope so too, but I rather doubt that Google will like this as well. Ha!

@CASE1WORKER: Do not worry. I will be the one slaughtered first, as the leader of the all the 'screwed' writers who appreciated this poem and commented here :D
I'm sure this poem will be a hit with your followers and hopefully google. I know what you mean and can totally relate to what you say. Voted up and funny.
Perhaps you should learn to love google and then it will love you? OK no chance, just a thought- it is so fickle, it loved me lots last month, but now.....persona non grata
Voted Up which will upset the great G

Hunbbel,
You had done justification to the topic you had chosen and now. whos said traffic dont wants you your funny poem is attracting all the class apart.
If I tell you few words on this poem
It has became the funniest of all poem
Put together written in this hub page may be
And I am sure this is going to go far may be
I will recommend google to give you the money
Of your grand son, as you deserve your own money
Along with your grandson who is going to be trained by you
I really enjoyed reading each line of it.
BELIEVE ME SINCE I LIKED IT LIKE ASHORT STORY , I READ IT TWICE TO UNDERSTAND WHAT MEANING YOU HAD MEANT EVERY WHERE.
I HAD VOTED UP AND BEAUTIFUL.
I appreciate your humor! Keep it coming :))

Thank you everyone. Because of your comments, I am very pleased to know that I am not the only one being frustrated here. There are many other people too, who are sucked by Google. Hahaha. Thank you so much for stopping by my friends :)
very nice! Funny, true and good poetry writing!
Funny!!! I liked the way your words flowed...frustration can work wonders for us when we allow it to take over! Sucking Google...Hahahaha!! Classic Hunbbel! :)
Great way to use keywords. I am sure you will get hits with this poem

@Sueswan: Thank you :)

@Saddlerider1: Thank you so much for stopping by and a comment of appreciation from a honourable poet as you, is surely an achievement for me. Thanks for the honour :)
And I laughed so hard at this:
"I'm a Poet and AdSense and Google both know it
Therefore they will ensure I stay poor"
So meaningful and funny haha
Very funny poem Hunbbel.
I'm a Poet and AdSense and Google both know it
Therefore they will ensure I stay poor
so I publish myself and link my book everywhere
without a care, you see Adsense and Google don't care
If I relied on feeding myself with their Non-Sense I
would be starving at best and jumping the fence
So all I can advise is to open your eyes and take
your talent to another level and walk away from the
devil's called Google and AdSense
Great poem BTW I am still on the floor laughing my
Ass off....now go write some more, write, write, write
they will come, just watch....
HaHa, Laughed all the way through it, made a lot of sense. Thank you.

Thank you Mr. Alastar, to stop by and taking your time off to read this and provide me with your feed back. I totally agree with you, trails and errors are part of our lives. I hope one day my words get enough readership, as much efforts I put in those words to write them. I am glad that you intend to read some of my hubs. I welcome you and I hope that you will surely like majority of my hubs. Thank you once again :)
- Author
@Poetvix: Thank you so much for your appreciation and kind words :)
Hunbbel, Poetvix and the others have said it well. Keep writing Hunbbel-- keep writing what you want; and not only does practice make better but your readership will find you in time. All good things in time. The Hub title as you probably know is important. You of course want the best page ranking for your subject. It can be difficult with some articles to get the title just right. Trail and error. Then, in many instances success. I'm going to your site tommorrow and read a couple of your Hubs. This poem already shows your great potential.
I found this to be totally hilarious for its truth, its wit, and its ability to be related to by all of us. That’s hard enough to accomplish in paragraph formatting but as a poem, it is much more so. Hubtastic!

@Writer20: I am glad you enjoyed it. The words flowed out of utter frustration hahaha.
This is usually funny from you. Great reading and a good laugh. Thanks.

@SubRon7: Thank you my friend for stopping by and sharing your personal experience with me. I know that success doesn't come easy, it is just that sometimes I feel bad that my well-though and well-planned hubs and articles didn't get much of the readership as I think they would have deserved. I've seen tremendous hubs out there but only to be forgotten after a while, as it didn't have much readers and viewers.

@Ghaelach: I guess you are right, but as always, a little money doesn't hurt any one, it only keeps you motivated. I am in love with writing and I'll keep writing; conveying my thoughts wrapped up in the beautiful arrangement of words :)
I am for the stories and novels too, I hope everybody will like them as well :)
Very funny poetry, Hunbbel. I don't know what to say to assuage your waning confidence, except to speak of my own experience. I have been writing for 35 years, have been rejected by publishers and magazines at least 500 times, but I have been learning, and I have found that the "reading" public does not agree with the "powers that be" in the official publishing world. You have to follow your own heart, Hunbbel, but just know (and I "know" you know) that success does not come easy.
Hi Hunbbel Meer.
If it wasn't so funny i could cry.
I'm not stupid or dumb but i gave up with all that stuff a while back and just got on with doing what i like and thats writing stories.
I never did get the hang of filling out the forms never mind making money.
Just get on and do your own thing and blow all those that are making money out off you.
LOL Ghaelach
