owning google by spamming bathrooms
 

I am setting this up and will soon be able to provide this service in 30 major metropolitan areas + the central valley in cali

Owning Google by spamming bathrooms

contact for details :winkwink:

Not really a new idea.

well the idea has been around for ages.. havent you seen those stupid "work at home" scam urls on telephone poles and shit..

Try to go into a bathroom these days and NOT find a few urls.. ( seriously ) take a look around next time your in the shitter. I guarantee almost every piece int he bathroom has an url on it.. the toilet papaer rolls, the toilet , the sink the soap dispenser heh..

Theres actually a guy around here that runs a service like the one you speak of.. he basically drives around to all the "sign boards " and such and places ads for other people that dont have time to drive around sticking up signs..

I was thinking of a better idea, using teens to advertise by "tagging" things .. like offer contests to teens to whioever can "tag" the best places with your url :)

yeah, but most things are not really new...for example how long has unix been around...the beauty is how you use it.

thanks SmokeyTheBear for the ideas ;-)

what city are you in?

I am now hiring restroom spammers

:-D people actually spam bathrooms?
i usually find "erotic pleasures call 555-gay" in the bathrooms

I got NYC covered, and have friends in SF and Phoenix, got to make more friends to get nationwide coverage :winkwink:

Or, alternatively I could just take nationwide tour...would be fun. Six months and I'll blanket the nation.

I already know teams of people who do it.

You're only 5 years late. Dumb fuck

haha...why am I dumb fuck? Is it too late to become a webmaster since the Internet has already been invented?

Where does your team operate? Are they global? Are they nationwide? Just imagine how many public restrooms there are in the USA alone...it's huge!

There's always opportunity :winkwink:

Mine's easy. I just add .com to the sign on bathroom door.

:winkwink:

I'll just outsource:

street marketing

That's hot.

It is a little bit of social engineering,I guess... but there is always the question of risk / return and the reality of how many or how few people will really actually add or discuss your site with a link in forums that really mean anything. People just typing in the domain or emailing to their friends won't give you long term action.

It is an interesting idea.

Alex

Sony used such idea and well..lets say it didn't went very well for them :winkwink:

also I don't know the legality of companies going around and writing on private and public property without authorization to do so...

its not like this is a "Tim loves Andrea" sort of writting...

Tresspassing, vandalism, obscenity in some cases

i think what he is saying is that google will rank your site higher if people are manually typing an url in to find your site..

I think this is very true . i was watching a commercial the other day on t.v. and the domain was cool so i was looking what other typo's of that domain were available..

One of the typo domains was available , had never been purchased , and i could find NO mention of the domain anywhere on the internet . yet the domain was already listed on google. must have been because of people typing it in to the address bar and typoing the real domain

I agree with you Smokey, I think this is the key point...interesting idea

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh nice!

A big die cut sticker on the back window of your car will get more hits than spending you day sticking stickers in restrooms.:2 cents:

hey hey now you have an idea.. hire old people do drive around impeding traffic with bumper stickers that say "REPORT THIS DRIVER - WWW.SITENAME.COM

"REPORT THIS DRIVER - WWW.BigHardBlackDicks.COM:1orglaugh

"Tagging" in my experience means Spray-Painting Correct?

Bad Idea to encourage people to destroy property by spray painting especially with your company name on it :)

Jim

yeah, but domains are $9 a pop and traffic is what you make of it

well, I'm old school NYC who still misses bombed out IRT trains :winkwink:

In the vein of alternative advertising mediums, has anyone tried and had any measurable response to highway billboard advertising?

Hey, that's my number biotch....
