I wonder what current Google service he is referring to. In any case, I like his idea...

Quoted: In fact, it is such a serious business that I have a second recommendation for Google. They have a service today that Ryan used to determine what the problem was for his site. Apparently the site was hacked and spammers inserted some bogus links that he wasn’t even aware of. I sympathize. A blog gets big and who spends time patrolling every post looking for such misdeeds? My suggestion for Google is to offer a reporting service. They could certainly charge for it if they wanted, because it is critical stuff for a lot of sites. For a nominal fee, perhaps $5 or so a month, it should be possible to get an email alert whenever your site’s status changes with Google. Whether that is a page rank change, or the more serious step of being delisted, you’d get an email when it happened. I have to believe this would be a net profit generator for Google, as well as a comfort for those who rely on Google.
