While it doesn't help my niche, it does help on figure out how and why these guys of different computer skill surf, and what they look at. What they hate, love, and so forth. Using them as a testing ground has always been beneficial.
One of the main things surfers are getting tired of the circle jerks, and learning about the different things on sites to the point they are recognizing codes, and other things. I am not saying the people I talk to are the AOL winners, but they are a mix of some savy, some not on a computer. They are starting to learn the internet to the point of avoiding certain sites, and bookmarking others.
While I agree with a lot of people's comments on the board over the years, they are just a surfer who is not going to buy, so who cares if you jerk them off, and bounce them all over? There are some who WILL buy if you have soemthing of interest to them. But if you circle jerk them, they are learning to never come back.
I would rather have someone come through once a week, than 1 click, and never return. However, the freeloaders will deal with all of the CJ's and other things to keep from paying for anything. So it's a series of tradeoffs when dealing with bandwidth burners.
