With so many threads created for latest Massage Planet website change, I decided to compile them and will write a book later.
I'm still undecided what the title would be:
1. Demystifying Massage Planet Thread Sort Posting.
2. Massage Planet 101 Thread Random Sort Order
3. Massage Planet for Dummies
Summary:
The ultimate objective of disorganized sort is to minimize visibility.
Why? There are spas paying ads. They're the ones with banners found on top of each page in this website. It's direct advertising. Click and you'll find information including schedules, pictures, reviews, feedbacks, testaments, etc.
As you can see, these colorful and blinking boxes are there for a reason.
Then, there's spas on a free ride without paying anything to Massage Planet. They're able to create threads and put any information at their will the same way spas with ads.
Both paying and non-paying are battling to be on top or first page of thread listing. Literally every minute. Well, we can't blame them. It's a tough business to lure every man out there to become their customers and ultimately regulars.
Looking back 10 to 15 years ago or so, Massage Planet were just starting. Spa businesses and users alike have much freedom in using the website. It gave Massage Planet much exposure with high traffic volume of users and interactions. Over the years Massage Planet improved immensely to solidify their status in digital world both spa businesses and users base.
Let's face it, there's no such thing as free in this world. Massage Planet is no exemption. They have to shoulder the cost on the server, DNS name, IP address, database, security, tool kits, developers, apps support and our famous Admin person.
As any business, they're here to earn and make money. It's why they built this site in the first place.
