hard to get people to type in a url

It seems to me that it is sooo difficult to get people to type an address in the address bar to go to a site, if they can't just click on a link the odds of a random person entering a url in the address bar to go to a site is next to nil.

It wasn't that way 5 or 6 years ago.

Many go to google and will type the name in rather than bother to type it in full.

Ie I get many hits from people doing a seach for NakedPaintBalling.com in google.

I think people use google to save having to type the name in full.
