I’m still trying to work out the point of this post. You seem to be saying that if you’re reasonably well-known then you don’t have to rely on Google for traffic.

Mkay .. and it took you an entire post to say that?

It might be marginally more interesting to discuss if John Chow would be as well known as you imply he is if he hadn’t used Google in the first place. And of course it’s not a matter of “he can afford it”, but more “he doesn’t have any choice” because Google dropped him.

Hey but let’s ignore all that in favour of some meaningless fluff

I just focus on providing quality content and monetize however I want. If Google doesn’t like me, oh well.

i agree with robertlam18;
but, Google is Suck, and they are dictatorship if you only rely on them. Today, we have tons of medium to get traffics. e.g Yahoo, MSN, ASK… and social bookmarking, stumble etc… for me, traffics have it’s cycle, if we don’t have PR (i don’t know much about PR) maybe we don’t have traffics from Big G. But, if we have link from other website that link to us… we still have traffic… coz, they also indexed. (sory my lang).

TQ.

I don’t necessarily agree with that … you dont have to bow down to them. Just use the social bookmarks effectively and you won’t even need google.

Google is greedy and so are you? Feathers with the same feather flock together hahaha just joking. Google helps few earning big bucks but thousands cry in pain because they slapped by Google like there’s no tomorrow.

Google suck. They are dictatorship.

What is to stop Bill Gate and Yahoo from doing exactly what Google do e.g. google analytics, etc and offer the internet an alternative? I still submit sitemap to Yahoo. The only problem with Yahoo is they don’t have enough online tools. If they do then I definitely will diversify my model with them and am sure same with everyone here.
