There’s a couple of threads on this on PFO: http://www.pokerforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=8

It worries me, but I have confidence that it will be shot down. If it did get voted in, then that would of course cause major problems for me, but not as bad as it may seem; it would only affect Americans, and while that’s a large percentage, it’s not stopping Canadians (like myself) or Europeans to play, and there are a lot of European players.

Also, luckily my site caters also to offline poker players, and advertisers would still come in through british poker sites – actually a lot of my advertisers now are indeed british sites.

PS: Page titles are more important in my experience! Something worth looking into…

I have to disagree about the domain name – Check out the results for poker forum, which is a more likely search term to poker forums, and you will see thepokerforum.com come in first, with pokerforum.com not appearing until further down the page. If domain names were that powerful in termas of automatic SEO, then surely pokerforum.com would come in first.

I agree with Kim Stweart that these are bad examples of search terms. I would be impressed if your sites were top for the term poker, or cooking. Most of my sites, some even less than one month old are already top of google etc… for silly search terms like these. And I receive miniscule amounts of traffic for the terms!

Anyway, nice blog… It’s nice to relax and see what you’ve been up to at the end of a hard day.
Take it easy,

Hey Tyler,

Good job with your websites. I totally agree with you on the point that the domain name has such a huge influence on how the website will grow and how it’ll be able to market itself. I used to own the website “kingdomhearts2.net” and it killed the competition on search engines including major websites such as IGN & Gamespot for the term “Kingdom Hearts 2″, but my success did not live long as I had to give up my domain after a lawsuit came forth from Disney. And obviously, even though I was able to get a new domain, my search engine status wasn’t looking too good since I dropped down to the bottom of page 1, and trust me, my SEO knowledge couldn’t help me from there, lol.

I decided to sell that website and I’m actually starting a humor website now. Obviously, all the good domains that’d be instant hit attractors have been taking *darn*. Anyways, I’ve seen you around on SP, and I noticed you replied to Amish’s thread HERE and I thought I’d drop in to check out your blog. Congrats on getting into TF, best of luck to you on that as they’re one of the best ad-paying companies around! Keep us posted on how you’re doing with that.

Catch you later.
