"Hi Ti. I need to rant here, so please bear with me. lol A very small sub-set of website owners can afford to think like that. Bloggers. Most websites are not blogs and don't have an "audience". They have "customers" (or they go out of business for not having customers). Reaching customers is not always that easy, with or without Google. Even among bloggers, very few can afford to think like that. Those whose audience is "other bloggers". But most blogs are not about blogging, marketing or writing like yours and mine and many people on BizSugar. Most are about "everything else" - grooming, gossip, sports, fashion, pets, etc. Their audience is not other bloggers. Their audience is very hard to reach without without Google. Sure, they can all comment on each others blogs, but that just redistributes the small segment of their market that reads blogs; that does nothing to reach new markets, the vast majority of people who do not read blogs and often don't even have a clue what a blog is. OK. Rant over. I'm smiling now. :-)"Subscribe

"I love PicMonkey. Look what I was able to create in just a few minutes - highly shareable, especially on Pinterest (which was the idea): http://thehappyguy.com/13/ . The original pic is http://pixabay.com/en/bear-cub-tree-truck-cute-hanging-79838/ ."
