How about a direct comparison, instead?
Back when I put out a blog network of mine on here and BHW. Same price at both sites. BHW pushed nearly 2x the volume. Those from BHW were also higher likely to be repeat buyers, of the same service and also of other services & products later down my funnel.
Anyone of you guys disagreeing, have you ever even offered anything at BHW? I know myself and jstover both have been highly successful at BHW, and I've been highly successful here with services, and we're in agreement about BHW pushing more volume.
edit: You deleted your post and now it looks like I'm talking to myself :>
Oh you again...
So, let me get this straight you little shithead. You decided, that of all the things to comment on in regards to a pricing change, to bring up a comparison between two forums that are completely different in terms of content, active user demographics, maturity and goals, all while having no actual facts to base it off of.
I mean, do you have access to our stats? Or are you basing it off of third party guesstimates? Yeah.. I think you are...
And of all the things, you're making a comparison to justify the price increase as if VOLUME is our primary concern.
Please sir, if volume is our primary goal here, where are the ads based on cpm?
Where are our ads all over the interwebz trying to invite every newbie and their third world country family over here to populate the forum?
If volume were still our goal, wouldn't we not discourage and promote a hazing newbies attitude of "adapt or die" or better yet put as "either you're one of us, or you had better shut the fuck up".
I mean, if volume were the goal here, and because you are CLEARLY the expert of all traffic related informations of the world Mr SEO God over there... Then, why do we put so much effort into NOT just approving everyone, or not banning everyone, or putting up with the typical brown nosing regurgitated bullshit that everyone else is totally cool with??
I have an idea, since you want to pick a fight... Let's have an SEO competition afterall.
You go and pick your team of experts, and I'll pick mine from this forum.
Let's see if you can do reputation management for all of your clients that we're going to rank WickedFire for. I'll give you 90 days.
At the end of the contest, I'll de-index the threads after you've lost. You will admit absolute defeat. Write with a spoon pic as proof, WICKEDFIRE PWNED ME AT SEO across your forehead... and agree to never log in here ever again.
If you do win, you'll get more respect and admiration from the vast volume of volume and volume volume volume... Right? Volume?
I think that's a fair fight. If you're going to pick one, at least pick on someone who doesn't have bigger friends than you.
I'll take Ilya, Barry/Grind, Ice2Eskimos, and .... two more guys want to volunteer? PM me. So, we'll have no more than 7-8 guys on our team.
You pick up to 20 guys.
OR
You can take a ban right now and fuck off right back to the little cave in the mountain's ass that you came from you dickhead...
I'm sick of people like you. Not gonna put up with it anymore. You love BHW so much? Fine, go there. I like BHW just fine. I believe they serve a purpose just like any other forum. But don't come here and play these games just because you're upset for not being noticed or important.
You're a pussy, so I will treat you like a pussy. And you will be fucked, just the way a pussy is supposed to get fucked.
