| One of the Web's biggest search term lies in the wrong hands. It’s so controversial that I can't put it in the subject line of an e-mail. (Thanks to those self-appointed e-mail guardians who have done such a commendable job of protecting the sanctity of our e-mail in-boxes by eliminating the f-word, thus leaving more storage space for Viagra ads, adult sites, and really personal growth secrets.) It’s still one of the best magnets to draw targeted traffic.
So, what if I have to advertise that my "Members Area" will have links to over 25,000 fr^e resources Or that my public area has links to over 1,000 fr^e resources. Or that my e-zine will feature fr^e resources in every issue.
It's all part of life on the new frontier, keeping up with the changing rules, avoiding misdirected vigilante "justice."
No, I don't like the stupid e-mail filters that filter out the e-zines I subscribed to while apparently laying out the welcome mat for the scammers, spammers, smut merchants, and gamblers. I could gripe to my family and friends or change my domain name to keep my URL from triggering somebody's spam filter. But, hey, I live in the land of the fr^e and the home of the br@ve. Think I'll keep my domain name and post the e-zine on the Web site for those who can't get it by e-mail.
If I can't figure out some way to let people know my site is out there, then I'm just not a good enough promoter. If I can piggy-back that onto---say, an article that (I hope) advances the cause of exposing the Spam-nazis and ISPs for their meddling, ineffective and intrusive (non)solution to "the problem of spam," so much the better.
Maybe I could even come up with a title that piques the reader's curiosity while illustrating the woeful inadequacy of "filters." After all, I'm fr^e to submit fr^e articles to fr^e content sites and fr^e e-zines all over the Internet to advertise my fr^e resources. I just can't use the f-word in the subject line.
Note to self: add "fr^e" to meta-tags on Web site before the Google-bot's next visit ;-)
