Always curious about things like this. I certainly would pay for this; it sounds like many other people here as well would. I'm curious if the constraint is that there aren't enough people to actually pay for the investment required for the service, or if there aren't enough people willing to pay to meet the standard VC notions of success. We seem to have a problem with building and supplying services for niche (read: "not expressable as an integer percent of the world's population") customer bases, and I'm never sure if that's a business problem or a cultural problem.
- SamoyedFurFluff 5y agoThe people most able to pay for a service like this are the people that advertisers most want because they’re the people with enough discretional budget to spend on things like better Google search results. Allowing someone to buy something like this also reduces your attractiveness to your advertising clients.
