Not so good a start, but one that many readers will have heard of...
After that there was one featured sponsor at the top and several on the
right. However, one of those was actually a site with tips for
writing...
> Essay
> College Essay Writing Tips
> Write Effective Application Essays
> www.CollegeBoard.com
>
And one had a money back guarantee. Perhaps lecturers risking their
jobs could use this site:
> Essay
> Non-plagiarized essays
> 100% Money-Back Guarantee.
> www.essayrelief.co.uk
After that, six of the top ten sites found were offering tutorials on
how to write an essay, which isn't that bad really.
Not quite so good for "dissertation" Only 4 of ten were offering advise
rather than a sales service.
Remember, Google is providing a service for people to find things that
are on the web. A newspaper isn't in quite the same position.
