1 - Nice discussion about Google links and it's about right on. You are correct about our webpage being around since 2003. Our SEO Company has had its hands full since Google is not friendly to dynamic pages and link popularity is slated for stage 3 of our plan. Other search engines like Yahoo, Bing, and MSN display more links and even articles published.

Breakfast Diva we are sorry that you feel that your information was posted without your permission. This has only been brought to our attention a couple of times since we went live in 2003. This is a problem that many website that use forms and databases. The struggle is verifying the identity of those who enter the information into the forms. Thankfully most people are honest and add only information on their own properties. Whenever, we find issues like this we try to resolve it quickly. Please send me an email and I will be happy to remove it at once. If you would rather you can update the information and we will upgrade your listing to a premium listing for 6 months.
3 – This statement was added by request of a few of our listings. You are the first one complain about the UfindVacations discount statement and we see how it can be mis-leading. Would it be better if we change it to read "Ask if a UfindVacations discount is available?"
4 - www.inngenious.com is a very nice page and is filled with useful information. swirt you are obviously very well informed about web promotion. We really like how you list your competitors on your contact page. We are surprised about your comment about our site being “worthless”.
I realize that we look at our site through rose colored glasses but, we would like to think that it serve the purpose of listing many wonderful site and feel that we have few real competitors. Many B&B directories miss wonderful opportunities for the properties listed on them. We took a step back to see who would visit a B&B (or other properties) and decided that we could not place them in just one category. Many travelers don’t realize that they can stay at many B&B’s for the same price of a hotel and the B&B maybe more local to their destination. They also don’t realize that they will get more personalized service at the B&B. What if someone is looking for a cabin, cottage or condo to rent but can’t find one locally wouldn’t it be nice to search for other property types in the area with a few clicks of the mouse. What about the fishermen chartering a boat, they may need to stay over night – again 3 clicks and they can be looking at places to stay.
