    Has anyone heard of this company? They claim to be able to get you the number one spot on Google/Yahoo and 38 other top search engines. It's free until you get to the number one spot, then they ask you to pay to keep it there. Seems kinda fishy to me, but wanted other opinions.

    Sounds like Monopolizer, only this time no money is involved yet. The main objective is webmaster email harvesting.

    How is it they can't even get on the first page
    of Google for the term "search engine optimization"
    which is what they supposedly do. They can't do it
    for themselves, yet you think they'll do it for you?!

    Also 1on40.com claims to have millions of visitors see alexa .
    But I purchased a ad on their site for 183.00 and my ad stats
    show big traffic from ad to my site.

    Problem is my site cpanel stats don't show anything ....
