I know what you mean, sites losing their surfers....but they will also get
new surfers in return. See it like a big traffic tumbling machine
You see most of these guys think the traffic only exists because they put up a TGP. [That was a bit tongue in cheek alright.]

Who will it get rid of?

People who can't afford to buy new domains, yes these guys have tons of valuable traffic.

Yes it will mean a lot of work, it will probably mean a lot of the traffic will have to be redirected or new URLs will have to replace existing one, the admin work will be a nightmare and worse if you have loads of little feeder sites.

But what it will not do is cost us, as an industry, one single surfer. So are you big enough to survive the cull or will you be put out of business?

I do not want it to come, I have sent my letters, buy I'm planning it will. The guys sending letters and planning it will not can live in hope. But I'm being positive about the negative.
