Kurt, this is not good news for people who want to use Newsvine for relevant link-building promotion. I wonder if this Newsvine show of power will require online marketers to be more savvy in their future submission efforts. I'm really curious to learn if others have had this Digg-like SEO elimination. At least they could have warned you, sent a message explaining a problem, or anything to give you a chance to rectify whatever perceived violation existed. We should start an online petition to demand Newsvine explain themselves. What do you other Sphinnsters think?
I think any outcry will prompt Newsvine to adjust its practices but I'm not sure they're improve their communications. It's worth exploring these entities, but they are vulnerable. Maybe it's the degree that they're used that will provide the most value. Clients should benefit from other links you've developed.
