Marketing spiel is always the same. Same words, same sentence construction. This guy's posts were just loaded with it from the word go.

Having said that the product is still pretty cool. It's just a shopping cart though, you could modify any of them.

I don't see what the problem is,

the guys got a fantastic site that drives business his way and as far I can see was quite willing to share his success with others, so what if a small charge is involved, if had not told you about you would not any wiser, I have no doubt many on here will be looking to put something similar in place now that you have the information.

If there is a small charge involved seems cheap considering your more clued up now that you were previously.

Dan,

It would not surprise me if Tony's sales have gone up. I remember him taking part in a discussion about SEO on another forum last year (maybe?).

At the time his Newcastle site was just about on the first page. It's now quite high. It also has a really eye catching title "wow... etc", which ought to get a good click through rate.

An online calculator will probably increase the time that visitors stay on the site and could maybe, reduce bounce rate. Both of these are now ranking factors.

The 40% increase is quite plausible.

Their online quote is on another domain.

If you don't have a Joomla site, there's nothing stopping you building this cart on and linking through.

Yeah but no one knew this (or most anyway)  until it was brought up on this topic....

I think the reaction was way over the top....just comes across as sour  grapes to some extent..

Sorry Warren, I was talking generally. In this instance, I see what you mean; it does redirect to another domain.
