Will Telnic EVER Get It ?

It just amazes me how Telnic continues to make this claim after everything they have promised:

How Does It Work ?









Really?

This is tantamount to fraud.

They don't say that people "may" find your .tel link in search results and ...

They suggest "it works" because people "do find" your .tel link and then ...

Instead of the clear mis-statements you would think that Telnic and/or Telnames would simply create a REAL directory where this was true.

Hmmm

This is where you found the statement: http://www.telnames.com/how-does-it-work/

I disagree on this one. Telnames doesn't promise too much, because after buying a Telname it gets picked up by search engines pretty quickly.
And you can always find the Telname very easy IF you know the full name of the Telname. Sure, you have no possibility to find a Telname without knowing the full name, but Telnames doesn't say you would.

Of course it makes no sense to search for a Telname if you know the name of it already, because then you can open it without the help of a search engine. Anyhow the problem is a Telname is really useless from the SEO perspective.
Long story short nobody will have a benefit from a Telname now, but perhaps Telnic will develop Telnames accordingly in a few years. For this purpose you can secure your Telname today. If you are lucky, it can be found somewhere in the future.

You can disagree all you want, the FACT remains:

Q. How does it work ?

A. People find your .tel link in search results ...

NOT TRUE as a rule for telnames or OLD .tel, simply NOT TRUE.

They need their own REAL directory to make that claim TRUE.

Imagine if YellowPages.com had no Directory-driven claims, and relied solely on the claims that Telnic is making.

They certainly wouldn't be ranked 128 of ALL websites used in the United States, that's for sure !

"Yeah, just spend money with us and never get found, what a deal."

Duh.

I thоught in thе bеginning оf TEL, thаt such dirеctоry will bе virtuаl - in thе hеаds оf pеоplе, usеrs оf TEL. If thеrе wоuld bе, sаy, sоmе 50,000,000 TEL-usеrs in thе Wоrld thеn еvеryоnе frоm thеm wоuld knоw thаt if yоu wаnt tо find sеrvicе оr tо buy gооds, thеn simply print in thе brоwsеr thе nаmе-оf-sеrvicе.tеl оr nаmе-оf-gооds.tеl, аnd thеn yоu will gеt tо thе right sitе.

But until thеrе аrе nоt such numbеrs оf TEL-usеrs, it will nоt wоrk, of course. And mаy bе it will nеvеr bе mоrе usеrs thаn nоw. I bеcаmе vеry skеpticаl аbоut TEL-prоjеct аt thе lаst timе.
