search engine domination

[Tommy]

but that whole argument is based on that you think sites like Tommys are dependent on Google for their traffic

and that's not true

you might think that because you see so many people crying on boards about losing their SEO spots
but those are always smaller unestablished webmasters
(I know that sounds a bit dickish)

you never see the bigger tgp owners crying about lost SEO spots

yes there are lots of times in the past 10 years that I have had great S.E. listings but there have been way more times when I haven't had any and I never noticed the difference

I almost never look at stats. the only time I know when I have a good ranking is when somebody tells me


Webmaster: Hey... how did you get that number 2 spot for keyword, wish I had that, how much traffic do you get from that

Tommy: umm......I dont know... then maybe I would say something about alt tags to try and sound like I have a clue

when your looking at sites that have 20 or 30 thousand incoming links, maybe hundreds of thousands of bookmarkers
a site thats trading 150 to 200 thousand hits a day
Google isnt so relevant


This goes back to what I have been saying for years

when I first started I didnt care about premoting sponsors.
I ONLY premoted Tommys, that was my first and only priority
but now all anyone cares about is how many sales they make today

some day soon Tommys is gonna be a search engine anyway
