Good to know I can fire up a both which will down-vote my competitors so they get excluded from your system. >> and the links will be edited by users. thus motivating those with commercial web sites (who are getting a return from the links) to spend the most time editing the links. So basically a search engine run by SEO consultants? Presumably you'll also be crawling and full-text search all links - otherwise what would people search on? And you expect donations to fund development, running costs, storage, cpu etc? Because, well, donations have worked out so well for so many projects so far? What will you fund it with until, you know, your site is Wikipedia scale (ie one of the very top sites in the internet?) >> no shady algorithms; everything will be transparent, sounds like an SEO dream. If I know exactly how to score points, then I can optimize my site for scoring points. Frankly, to answer your question, no this isn't a Google alternative.
