I'm glad I found your blog because it's a fine example of how I envision ours shaping up at <a HREF="http://www.wine-menu.squarespace.com" rel="nofollow">The Cave</A>. There is a shortage of blogs covering the Wine BUSINESS and Wine industry news so this place is a breath of fresh air. I'm am also sick and tired of the questionable tactics regularly employed by desparate out-of-work losers who spam the search engines with their useless fodder. As the marketer for a rare wine brokerage I am well aware than an entire sub-group/sub-culture exists around playing the search engines. The problem with this is ultimately, the human (whom the search engines are catering to) is the one who loses. Moreover, these practices are not sustainable for the perpetraters because they're working AGAINST the search engine's purposes.... Well, anyways, awesome, AWESOME blog. You can bet we'll be back.
