I just used Alexa and ‘related links’ – and there is no competition in the format that I use for the 3 sites I checked – yet I know there are some! Perhaps Google might be more reliable as it covers those who don’t have Alexa toolbars installed

The more we analyse our competitors the more proficient we will become. I am sure that in a years time we will have a schedule and a marketing plan laid out which we adhere to and it will simplify everything.

The more tech savvy we can be with watching our competitors the better. We jsut need to work out who they are.

Analysis is one of my weak points. Yet, with a little time we can learn a lot about what to do to improve our own performance – so I am going to have to extrcat the proverbial digit and do it more consistently ….. getting keywords, their density etc my first task.

Your father has a sound philosophy and a simple and smart way to see how people really are.
It cuts through all the rubbish and you will be able to see if your ‘competition’ is really competition at all’
I have found in life that people who continually profess to be something or constantly talk about certain qualities they have, do it to hide the fact that they don’t but want others to think they do.
When they publicly embellish themselves watch out because they open themselves to scrutiny.

It doesn’t take long to see a charlaton. The glossy sparkly ones aren’t always the best so when we we do check up on our competition, we need to make sure that they actually are.
