What You Have in Common With Porn (and may not realize it)
Adwords bans

Many directed squarely at Internet marketing products.
Like porn, the IM industry is steadily being pushed into the backwaters of the Internet.
Pushed by major traffic tollbooths such as Google.
You can find it -- if you try.
But it's not like it used to be. And not nearly as financially profitable for so many.
It won't do you any good to say, I'll just use Facebook. They're next - just wait until after their IPO.
After the "early adopter" IMers use, test, and make a service financially viable for the owner, as more "mainstream" businesses move in the IMers are de-legitimized and kicked out.
Of course, the hordes of scammers, morons, and idiots who would sell their mom for a nickel don't help.
Like porn, the IM industry is slitting its own financial throat through free and bad products.
- There are mountains of crap.
- The barriers to entry are nonexistent.
- Many could care less about intellectual property if it means getting them a "link" or the opportunity to make that nickel.
- Globalization and different standards of living means the worthless nickel in the US may be quite valuable in another country - thus putting pressure on price.
- Many confusing free delivery as meaning the product should be free or almost free.
Like porn,
This is only going to get worse before it gets better. But I predict it will only get better for a select few.
