A lot of people say to me “Rhys! You’re advertising Text Links on your site, and you also use Text Link Ads. Aren’t you worry that Google will hate you?”.
I always tell them no, and here’s why.
Through Text Link Ads, I’ve managed to make a little bit of money per month on my blog. It’s not a huge amount, but pays for a few nights out/couple of driving lessons. That - along with everything else I earn - does help things along nicely.
Google, in the last Pagerank Update, knocked me down from a PR4 to a PR3, largely as a response to text links. Wierdly, google visitors increased quite a bit, and last week I had a large number of people searching for a strange phrase never seen before in my referral logs:
Never seen that before. Why do I come up so high? I mean, My name’s Rhys and I have a brother called Richard, but mispellings count for nothing, do they? And why are people mispelling my name like that?
Turns out it isn’t for me. Rhyse Richards is “One of the up and coming stars in the world of Adult Entertainment” (not my words by the way), and like all up and coming stars, she has a Myspace (debateably NSFW - like you go on Myspace at work anyway, facebook is where it’s at), which tells us that Rhyse is 35 years old, 5′3″ tall and her vital statistics is a completly unnatural 34DD-24-34.
What I find hilarious about it is that just the thought of all 1,161 people one hand surfing to this site, and being bitterly disappointed (or maybe not!).
Hence this post.
Anybody who tries and makes money from search engine will know the value of “Landing Pages”, pages specifically designed to attract the attention of search engines, which give you a brief overview to what you’re trying to flog, and then somewhere on there is the product, people read it, buy it, and you make money.
I’m not trying to make money, just trying to hopefully not leave our Chicken Choking Google Visitors with a sour taste in their mouth.
So here goes:
Rhyse Richards: 35, makes money on the internet by taking her clothes off.
Rhys Wynne (with a brother called Richard): 23, makes money on the internet by not taking his clothes off.
So that’s why - dear readers - this is the reason why I don’t really worry about who comes from Google.

Rhys Wynne, the author of this blog, is a 20 something web designer from Colwyn Bay.
She just doesn’t do it for me.
And honestly, 35 years old and ‘up-and-coming’??
She is moving into the MILF category if anything.
I’ll stick to my collection of ‘classy’ brunettes…
I suspect a play on word of “Coming”
I am just grateful you keep your clothes on! Might be a bit chilly round Colwyn Bay [even though it is 30 degrees celsius with me right now!]
Welcome to sharing your name with porn star! We should start a facebook group or something.
We should! It’d be me, you, Erica who commented below and Han’s mate (who I think her name is) Sarena Lee.
at least you have bigger jugs than her!
Very good! My first thought when I read your comment was “you cheeky sod referring to my manboobs”, but then I realised it’s the okky pic
I’m trying to decide what’s more fake.. her hair or her boobs.
Hi just thought I would give my thoughts, actually my hair and my boobs are fake,
however I don’t see what that says.. but ok I understand that you feel the need to put people down to feel better about yourself … I however work very hard to look as good as and compete with the girls 15 years younger than me it is apparently working as you took time to write about me.. so I obviously got your attention ..
and Rhys just thought I would say Hi… your picture is great.. glad I share my name with you !!! xoxoxo Rhyse Richards.. and yes up and CUMMING !!!
My sisters and I have a similar problem!
Our blog is called “Five Blondes” - there is an adult film by this name.
Put my name with my sister Lauren’s name, and you’ve made the name of a “mature” adult film star. We get a lot of hits for “Erica Lauren” and I’m sure a lot of disappointment.
Oi dude, if you haven’t seen it already, run past my blog and check out Italian Spiderman. Had me in stitches!
Start being worried if you get people searching for Rhys’s jugs heh.
Ask her to buy one of your 125×125 icons. That’s all I’m sayin’.
Ok, I need a porn name and quick. I just get angry Dutch, Bea Arthur lovers who send me traffic from their forum, which I cannot understand a word of-other than what I translated, which resulted in something about me being disgusting for putting up a pic of Bea Arthur wearing leather and chains.
And take your clothes off- I like man boobs.
I actually sat here chuckling out loud at your post:
“makes money on the internet by not taking his clothes off”
I get a lot of people searching for “Carly” and getting to my site…which is all well and good, but I’d like to know which weirdos are stalking me…old friends? work colleuges? family? I tell them all I’m on the world wide web, but not told anyone the URI or anything… I bet they’re all on gooooogle lookin for me…
