| Before clicking on any post you should note the number of lines
| in the post.  That's a holdover from the old days when 300-Baud
| modems were considered fast.
|
| Several of the major search engines, including Google, spider
| USENET posts as well as the WWW, looking for links to various
| websites.  These are catalogued and can affect a website's
| placement within "content match" search results.
|
| For example, suppose someone is looking for "Extreme CCTV".  I
| have ~6,000 pages related to Extreme CCTV on my website.  By
| listing them all periodically, say once a week in several
| appropriate newsgroups I let Google know that there is a lot of
| information on my site matching the search term, "Extreme CCTV".
|
| Take this one step further.  I list something on the order of
| 2,000 CCTV camera models on my website.  If someone searches for
| CCTV cameras, I stand a better chance of being among the early
| content match responses than someone who doesn't make occasional
| PR posts.  This is a process.  It's nowhere near done yet.  It
| can take six months or more for the content matching to take
| affect.
|
| The other side of this is that a few members of the IB questioned
| the veracity of my earlier post wherein I mentioned the scope of
| my website.  I thought they might like to read a few of the
| pages.  :^)
|
| www.BassBurglarAlarms.com is indeed one of the largest DIY
| websites in the security industry.  The site design involves both
| brief and detailed pages for each product, plus category type,
| category and sub-category pages for various product groups.
|
| I'm planning to add over 30,000 new products this year.  By this
| time next year there should be somewhere between 120,000 and
| 150,000 pages in each of my websites.
