    Interesting stuff. I can definitely see this growing and becoming a viable tool for publishers, but it's going to have to go a long ways before it can catch up to AdSense.

      I'm totally addicted to this. I have yet to see if its going to do anything for my site, but it is finally something new to try.

        What are you talking about with catching up with adsense?? This is a tool for SEOs to optimize their sites to take advantage of the "long tail" of search. Did you even watch the flash movie?? Do you know what the "long tail" is? It does seem like some good use of AJAX though.

          A little late on the punch-- i've been using it for a few weeks and I am getting some interesting results. Everyone should have this.

            Also-- the title doesn't make any sense.

              My bad. The title was supposed to read that it is an alternative to AdWords, in that writing for the long tail of search and getting those hits for free is better than paying for those same keywords in a PPC campaign.

                Post the actual site instead of this Blog jump page crap. Here's the actual site: http://www.hittail.com/ "Google, Yahoo, MSN and ASK must give a small number of websites free traffic in order to keep their users coming back. This is known as natural, or "organic" search, and is the best deal in marketing. This website shows you how to get this free traffic by following a simple set of guidelines--a process known as MyLongTail."
