There's a difference between being the first to make a cell phone and being the first to sell a pet rock.
what I was trying to convey is that being first will usually garner a bit more traffic and income potential than doing what someone else has done. Not that being second has any real implications, but, the novelty of the first site got notoriety and publicity. Many things in the industry are copied, that is for sure.
Being second you have to work much harder to get money out of someone's pocket to buy your ads or offer a better deal and probably won't enjoy the word of mouth boost that the first site received.
