I apologize in advance if I sound snarky, but I (and I suspect many others here) hadn't heard of Marginalia until today. How much did you spend on ads and where did you advertise?



Don't be silly. When he said he spend a lot on advertising he didn't mean that put up a superbowl ad. He probably spend it on Google Adwords for people who where searching for related terms.


"people who where searching for related terms"

I think that would be a strange thing to search for, and I'm not sure it would be a profitable demographic.

Sometimes the problem is not just "do people search for something" but who are those people doing those searches?


Being on this page was his best advertising--ironic?
