If there is nobody out there, that's a lot of real estate going to waste!

I think he either got really screwed over by his webmaster/web designer, or he isn't being entirely truthful. |confused|

At a cost of several hundred thousand dollars, he made some of the changes Google suggested. No improvement.
Do the math: $200k / 600k = 33¢ per listing

Now myself, I would have done a little PHP script to create "HTML" pages. Computer generated(CRON job), but they don't appear to be dynamic, or database driven.

Google & their over-priced minimum bids have been going for quite some time.
