He sells books and skin care products, but not the products I sell.
Thus, Google is allowing him to purchase my product's keywords.
How do other people file suits and complaints about the tactic he's using?
Thank you.

In 2005 I have been a pay per clicks with google adwords and i had to limit the amount to spend as my business is just starting out. At the close of 2005 I had spent over $8,200 with google alone. Since I had started with the pay per clicks my site hasnt come up in thier organic search results. Yet in yahoo and msn you find my site usually in #1,2,3 postions under the keywords "used cars on long island" and "used cars in new york".
So i changed the site around to be compliant with google webmasters guidelines. I had optumized different pages for certain keywords. Still no results in google search engine. They do have my pages indexed but they dont come up. I have emailed help@google.com but they insist nothing is being blocked.

I have started a major link compain since that is supposidy how google ranks your website, with links,not keywords. They are surpressing my site in organic search results and I dont know why. Yahoo and MSN are NOT. Also google is blocking my links as well take a look at these 3 searches and see what I am talking about.

- I had started my own internet company ALLNYCARS.COM. I opened an google adwords account. I went to dealers to get them to sign up on my site to host thier used cars online so customers shopping on the net can come across my site and find the car they are looking for and call the dealer and they go buy the car.
