My gripe was more to do with the brand name. Generally, in the niche that I sell (ballbusting) Kinky Kicks is very well known already. What I need is affiliates to take my content to a wider femdom audience and so affiliates using KinkyKicks.[whatever] doesn't bring anything to the table for me.
However, I do also appreciate the importance of search listings that pay. I've found several links to our content on file share sites by accident recently. Some that have been up quite a long time!
Leiva, yes I got your email. I'll try and reply shortly.

While I think it's lame for an affiliate to register your .org name and I would kind of view any affiliate doing that as a bit of an asshole, what everyone else states about still securing the traffic from google is valid. In the end as long as that traffic is going to you, you should be happy. Especially if the affiliate is effective with that ranking. Sure the ranks for "kinky kicks" aren't filled with a bunch of torrents and oron links full of siterips right now but in six months who knows what will happen? If that happens and he still stays #2 when the #3 link is a full site rip of your site on Extreme Board you'll be counting your lucky stars that he is there and you will wish there were 7 others like him to knock that site rip off the first page.
