Eugene: I try once I have spare time, an Ebook maybe.

Richard: Thanks. You should get more friends on SU though so that other people get to see your submissions :-)

Shari: Yeah, traffic is really dehumanizing.

Doumiao: :-)

[...] Give. Image by Mr. KrisPersonally I hate the term “marketing” as well as combinations like search engine marketing. Even more than that I despise the term social media marketing which is an oxymoron in itself. I wonder why I forgot to add to this list of despicable terms. [...]

Great post. I’m guilty of using the term “traffic.” Hadn’t thought much about it before, but guest sounds so much more friendly and appreciative.

Dave k – I really like the idea of calling what we do “search experience optimization.” In addition to your point about the search itself being an experience, the end result should be also. When your guest arrives, he or she is hoping to experience what was promised through that search activity.

I like your comments so I submitted the post to stumbleupon. Submiting will get you traffic, I think your site will turn some of them into visitors or clients.

Maybe I am just insulting SU, but there are 1000 people a day that hit my sites through SU and so few stay for more than one page. Google, Digg and following back blog replies gets more visitors than something like SU does.

Hoe you understand the point I an trying to make – I just woke up and need that morning coffee.

Nice post and I really did stumble it.

Tadeusz,
no worries, we’ll not compete, but I guess we’ll build on each others definition. What about joining forces to come up with something? I need to get my blog started, so Ill keep in touch.

Yes Dave, like most “SEO is bullshit” link baiters and hate mongers Calacanis is heavily into SEO himself. He relies on Google traffic for Mahalo.
So he is a hypocrite at best.
Please do not devise a better SEO redefinition before I publish mine ;-)

Cindy, thanks for the appreciation. My blog commenting netiquette guide does not include a forum like signature though, I had to remove yours.
