Great article. I suffer from over-wordiness sometimes, but it gives me great organic search results.

Not bad but it seems a bit outdated... it really seems like the kind of article you would have seen in a 1999 issue of Fast Company.

For those too lazy to read: dumb down your sales pitch so a child could understand it.

That sure is a long article that can be summed up with:

"say less and keep it simple."

Author needs to take his own advice.

Yeah, the article appears a bit outdated but when looking at very successful corporate sites I see they take the authors comments to heart.

I am not sure which is better though, "throbbing wet vagina" or "monster labia squirter"

Good point, only a search engine bot will read that...........

I think online you basically need both. At the beginning a very simple idiot's guide in bullet point format and then a Markhamesque (without the gratuitous repeats of $3,000 every 10 words) wall of text just for the bots.
