Slick!

YapYapOK UK Free Ads Alexa 379,773 -  UK Free Ads  25k, yes a little yoyo-ing but only a couple of hundred


YapYapOK free UK classifieds continues to go in the right direction.  This week has been very pleasing as we have already grown 49k since last Saturday week.   This represented a growth  of approx 12%  of the rank.  We will soon get to a point where our rank settles and cannot grow until we get the hit rate up still further.   We will need to increase our current hit rate up by about 6 times to qualify for under 100k Alexa ranking.

Might sound like alot but I think that we can achieve this within the next 3 months.  Of course we will have to blow the budget a little to get there.  It was important that we got so far by ourselves, ironing out glitches and seeing where we could improve our service.  I genuinely think that our site is slicker than any other free classified site with more functionality and is a great viable online selling solution.

On the subject of solutions, I have just read on the BBC news website that the oil spill may be contained by absorbtion from human and animal hair.  Makes perfect sense.  Hair follicles are naturally designed to carry oil, hence hair grows greasy when unwashed.  Its rough surface and high surface area make it a very efficient absorber.

Hair & fur is stuffed into nylon tights to create a sort of baton and then lay across coastal areas, stopping the spill reaching the beaches.  Apparently this waste can be fed to earth worms who break it down into a petroleum based fertilizer.  Nice!

I am considering a BBC RSS news feed.  Would users like to see this on the home page.  Let me know!
