WELCOME TO THE NEXT LEVEL!

Please note: The terms that we use in this post, such as "war" and "attack" are figurative words, and are not indicative of any unethical or illegal activity on our part. What we are going to do is legal, and ethical. Thank you.

The Tampa Designer Blog has closed, and is offline. This blog has been combined with two of our other dedicated domain blogs, and has been moved to the new main web site, which was commissioned and launched on May 6, 2012. Of course, because we are aware that competitors are reading this, and we now have a strict online strategy of not telegraphing what we are doing online, we will not link to this new site, which isn't the old one with the old operating domain name (and since we bought the domain on May 6, it has not been reported in any post here). All information reported on this site is now obsolete, as we will be dumping old domain names in the coming months, and will be starting over for many of our sites.

The domain name for the Tampa Designer Blog will be burned using reverse SEO, so that it will be worthless to anyone who tries to acquire it. Effective immediately, our domain name portfolio will be treated as a trade secret, and we will not be publishing which domains that we own.

This is the fourth war. We are aware that certain parties have been gunning for our search engine placement over the past four years, and recently, things have become particularly nasty. Some of what has been done has done nothing but piss us off. Our response will be a strong one, and since the mistakes that we have made have been rectified, there is nothing that anyone can do about it. In the coming months and years, we will dominate and run search engine results using lots of sites, lots of content, social media integration, and legitimate SEO which is legitimate in the definitions of the leading search engines. Most of our web sites will not link to each other, too, as we have no desire to give the wrong impression to the search engines, and do not want to give unethical competitors and leverage to use against us. What some have done recently has been an act of war, and it was a mistake on their part. We will not get very, very aggressive in a highly organized online campaign which has been in the planning stages since 2008, when this B.S. with aspiring competitors began.

We will also build and deploy new types of web sites, including stealth sites and dedicated attack sites. The dedicated attack sites will use operating domain names, and will legitimately address issues in their target market (modeling and talent agencies, modeling and talent schools, modeling management companies, talent searches, and talent scams in the Tampa Bay market are prime targets for this, as they must be put in their place. We will be working hard to cost them market share).

We do not care how much time, money, and work that this takes. We will be seen. We will be heard. We will run online search results just like we run the market. This is war, and our target markets for our businesses will benefit, while competitors will struggle to compete. This is the first front of our online war, and those who attempt to compete with us will find that it will become too expensive to compete with us in web sites. We don't care if it even cuts into out profitability at this point, because some of you have proven that you do not belong in business, nor, with your unethical tactics, do you deserve to be in business. Some of you will be removed from the market.

Those of you who are cheating in your search engine strategies (you know who you are) are going to be reported. We have a large team of professionals who will be reporting you constantly, and your unethical tactics will backfire. Those of you who are paying for advertising in the search engines, too, with advertised results for specific keywords, are going to find that it will become very, very expensive. We are going to start dumping large amounts of money into those targeted keywords, and will drive up the costs dramatically. This is a second front of a very aggressive, very vicious fourth war that we will be waging.

Many of you have brought this upon yourselves. Welcome to a market that will become so competitive that it will be very, very hard for many of you to compete, You are welcome, and you deserve what is going to happen!

Many of you have been watching us over the years, and you know that we know what we are doing. You know that we will accomplish our goals. Again, you have brought it upon yourselves. There will be no more mistakes. Your nightmare is beginning.

There will be no further updates on this web site.
