Claire’s Secret War.com

Traffic to the site has slowed down. I’m hurt. So I will tell a story:

I am at war with a Claire.

And she doesn’t even know it, so it’s Claire’s Secret War. Who, you ask? With the Claire at another planetclaire website.

Don’t get me wrong, it’s not that I want the domain. I love being a .org. Wouldn’t change it for the world, I swear. But the war rages on all the same.

I’m sure this Claire is a perfectly lovely woman and all, don’t get me wrong. She has a perfectly lovely site and I’m sure a perfectly lovely voice to match. I just have no life.

But I digress. Back to The War of the Claires:

See, lately I’ve been gaining some ground. The tide is turning. How can I tell?

Occasionally I’ll type “planetclaire” into Google just to see where I show up. Now normally, she shows up above me. But recently, I’ve nudged above her. And then I get bumped down! And then back up. Now, I’m not one for conspiracy theories (much) but it seems as though Google is manually pushing her up to the top. I gotta say, I’m guessing I get more traffic than she does.

So in order to fight, I type in planetclaire and click on me repeatedly. This is a war that must be won! By me! So if someone reads this and is bored… I’m just suggesting…

And if anyone actually does this and can prove it… um, I’ll whip up some planetclaire merchandise. Or cash.
