    I went to this topic to see if this ad-co-op thing would be a good way to get extra traffic, but after reading the posts in this tread, I have decided to stay away from it, just be sure.

    Thanks!

    Wow, thanks for that amazingly insightful and helpful post, fryman. :rolleyes:

    Go hang out in Stanley Park and try to soak up a little civilization. Maybe it will take.

    Towels! Towel boy! Bring me another towel! :cool:

    So you go look at people's sites and read their blogs just to make fun of them? Hrmmm. Lemme make it my turn then, like when you said,

    I can't help it... it's just funny. =)

    nddb, it's not my fault that you're not able to understand that thread.

    Sorry, I can't help you with that.

    Feel free to rant idiotically in this thread or that one. :)

    Oh I understand it. In relation to you sending dozens of requests to google for them to raise your site in the SERPs. And in relation to the co-op hurting your rank.

    I "get it." You don't. That's why it's funny.

    OK, I'll try once more to make this simple enough for you to understand it.

    Let's say that I go into a restaurant and they serve me a filet mignon that is disgusting and inedible. Do I keep this knowledge to myself? No. Do I ask the government to make my filet mignon edible? No.

    What do I do? I share my knowledge with the people who run the restaurant, to help them improve their products and services.

    You're irrational argument across multiple threads that we should not examine why rankings occur, not communicate with Google, and not attempt to improve our rankings is just moronic.

    But please, do continue to spout idiocy. :rolleyes:

    Well, why don't you request your money back from this COMPLETELY FREE "restaurant."

    You get what you pay for. And if you don't, then you can complain.

    If Google cared for your suggestions, they might have replied to one of your dozens of emails.

    And the real problem, what you don't seem to understand, is that you state things as FACTS that you cannot prove at all.

    Towel boy... lmao :D

    Well, actually I am in a management project, duties don't exactly involve carrying towels.

    Nah, pay no attention to the poor old dork and his buddy Willy. I am flattered to see they have so much interest in a blog I created exclusively to keep my family updated about what I am doing while I am at Vancouver.

    Maybe I should just create some crappy health directory and spam the forum with signature links to it all over the place. Oh, wait, someone already did that...

    I'd just like to say that you are all illogical morons, your sites all suck and you have no real lives and you walk funny and the coop is (insert contrary evaluation here).

    P.S. I of course mean no disrespect. :)

    I know I speak for everyone here when I say how sorry I am to hear of your communication disability.

    Were you ever a newbie here?

    People who don't question, research, investigate, test, and analyze will remain perpetual newbies.

    I'm thinking of setting up the ad network on my blog. I just came by this thread and I thought I'd put my two cents in.

    I'm not using the ad network right now, and some of my keywords have tanked in Google (and by tank, I mean go from #12 to 10,000+ overnight). Just because Google did some re-shuffling it doesn't mean that it was related to anything, you, I, or any of these people did.

    Anyway, here's hoping that The ad network will help drive some much needed traffic to my site :)
