She exclaimed that Aviva Directory no longer seemed to be ranking for its own name in Google. I tried searching this, and sure enough, she was right. Even searching for &quot;Aviva Directory&quot; with quotes did not bring up this website. She then said, try Alive Directory - and we found the same result.

<description><![CDATA[So the Desphinn is now operational, although the comment box needs fixing.Interesting, at first I though, nah, never gonna use it. Why do I need some seo nutter coming after me for desphinning his &quot;Rand Was Satan's' Dad&quot; post. But on the other hand, why not. What do I care?In my opinion there is so much crap that gets Sphunn here, you may agree, you may not, but at least lets have a discourse. A desphinn is part of that discourse.Now I am not going to desphinn someone eagerly trying to climb the Sphinn mountain. I am more liable to vote down those who know better. My first proper desphinn was one of Marty's submits. I thought the post way to flimsy to satisfy the appetite of those seeking juicy online marketing morsels, and so I desphunn it.I have desphunn once, and yes, I will desphunn again.So come on, don't be shy, vote down that piece of crap that you have been dying to do all this time. And if people get umpty, tough. This is big boys rules now.<br/><br/>49 Vote(s) ]]></description>
