2) Branding - this is more important for non-adult sites looking to run radio or TV ads and make sure people don't forget what they hear by the time they get home. Also for word of mouth.

I guess there is a third... search engine relevance - does it help you get up on listings? This is more complex to answer and it all depends on your skills with SE spamming anyway.

My pair o' pesos...
Definitely good points. I think the typein attraction is practically gone, so I look for SE spots and also becuase I traffic trade, the 'look'. I could not believe how much the title "Sexy Teacher" pulled in one of my recent trades. I had to write my tracker so it would remove the links once the site got enough clicks.
