Actually, I just remembered a kind of funny but very shady story about that celebritiesnetwork domain.
I have a ton of different celebrity domains that were originally going to be used for movie galleries. I ended up not doing movie galleries for juicy bucks or any other celebrity sites because of the content. Didn't want to use hollywood video content.
Anyway, the domains sat for awhile until a designer that used to frequent GFY and doesn't any longer offered to do something with them. She owed me quite a bit of money that had built up as I was helping her and her family in some tough times. Anyway she said she knew a little about SEO and offered to fill out a bunch of domains with search engine pages. I figured I didn't know much at all about SEO and celebrity names would make easy keywords to play with, so I figured what the hell go ahead. Gave her my juicy bucks login and she went to work. She eventually delivered me like 25 pages or so.
Anyway, turns out she basically copied them from another guy that posts on GFY. Well, she rewrote the HTML and made new graphics, but she copied the keywords, layout and basic design elements. I didn't know and got called out by the guy who she copied. I actually had a rogue designer but it was my responsibility.
Now _THAT_ what fucking shady and I'll admit it. Luckily enough, the guy was pretty nice about it and even though I offered to just take it all offline he said just change some keywords and what not and he'd be fine with it.
