Chris Anderson’s new Book about Free is not free anymore. If you try to download  it  at www.scribd.com/doc/17135767/FREE-by-Chris-Anderson and you are not in the USA you will get the screen below.

Free is geographically restricted.

If you are lucky enough to be in the USA you still can’t get the free edition as it is no longer available.  Seems like free is free only if you are in the right place at the right time.

Free is time restricted

But what does this have to do with SEO?

Well, actually everything. Even though Chris has removed his free version from the Internet he is still rated no. 2 for Free Book on Google. That should help him drive sales and make some real money.

High ranking for Free Book even though it is not free anymore

Seems like free works for SEO even if it is not free.
