What a coinkidink. I have a recent experience that may provide some valuable
data.

As a vacation I set up a Web site last week. I started it on the 20th, and
didn't really do any kind of promotion for it until the 25th, Monday.

Well, yesterday it won a USA Today Hot Site award. And seeing as this site
isn't in any search engines and only has about two reciprocal links, I can
trace most of the 450 visitors my site got yesterday to the award.

For what it's worth...
