RE: UKNM: Bad search engines

[Jude Beggs]

yes, but I wasn't talking about goto.com I cant really say anything about

them. I was talking about godado.co.uk. Similar business plan. Different

Business. Its like saying all etailers are boo.com, or all software is

microsoft. As I said before, we offer no one preferential treatment, their

is no dishonesty or corruption, you simply pay to improve your ranking- I'm

gonna get moderated for repitition at this rate!


for all those of you who are still having trouble with the concept, I invite

you to follow the link. And please remember we are not goto!


Cheers Jude.

If only that were true. My own experience of goto.com is that companies

with big bucks are being awarded search terms that they can offer only one

page of content against. They are also being allowed to have the click-thru

lead the visitor to their home page rather than to the correct and relevant

destination.


Cash-poor niche sites (like mine) end up further down in the results,

despite arguably offering more detailed and relevant content.


It therefore doesn't follow that visitors gets high quality results from

this system.


Money talks, as always.
