Is realestate.com.au shutting out small search aggregators?

< 1 minute read

One thing I noticed recently was spyk.com no longer carried REA listings. Are they doing some things to stop certain search companies from indexing their data? If so, why?

To me, if they are it would mean that they spend so much money and effort trying to be indexed by the big players such as Google, MSN and Yahoo, it would seem to be unfair to block certain spiders from indexing.

I do hope this is not the case as it would reak of double standards. Would be interested to hear a response!

I have tried to contact Spyk.com for a response and will keep trying….
