Dear owner of conman.org <http://conman.org>,
Hope everything is fine at your end.
Would you like to know some of the reasons why your website is not getting enough visitors who might turn to be your potential customers/clients?
I am SEO expert of a leading SEO service provider company. As per my analysis , your website is not performing well in the Google organic search. Also your traffic is poor form last couple of months due to some of the reasons. Some of the aspects given bellow.
Due to poor back links
Irrelevant content used in website
Keywords not in good position
Due to errors and issues present in the website

Sometimes, a piece of spam will catch my eye, and this otherwise unexceptional piece of spam did. Aside from a few grammar mistakes (“sound's” and “an Free”) and the horrible HTML (although it did include a plain text version, so there's that) used in the email (probably vomited up by Microsoft Word from the looks of it) I'm not sure why this caught my eye.
To me, it's obvious that he never even looked at my site as I don't sell anything. I also have to wonder what “errors and issues present in the website” David is referring to, as I can't find any errors. Broken links, check. Keywords not in a good position, um … I guess? Errors and issues? I'm not seeing any.
But I was curious, and I decided to check out the domain he sent the email
from, weboptimizes.com. And wow, what a wonderful site:
Index of /
Apache Server at weboptimizes.com Port 80
Half the links there are forbidden, and the other half return no information.
I really have to wonder how much of an “expert” David is, and what “leading SEO service provider company” he works for. Because so far, I'm not seeing “expert” or “leading company” in this email.
So of course I replied.

It was thus said that the Great David Parker once stated:
Hope everything is fine at your end.
It is, thanks. How are things with you?
