Hedge funds in everything
AdultVest, Inc., the Beverly Hills-based investment bank, which concentrates its practice exclusively on adult industry investments, mergers, and acquisitions, announced today it had been selected by Alternative Investment News as one of four funds nominated for the "Hedge Fund Launch of the Year" award.
Here is the link. That's from John DePalma, who also points our attention to this Dilbert cartoon.

Crazy. I have never heard of them before. It is not entirely surprising though. There are hundreds of CA-based firms which specialize in adult busniess management and are printing million dollar bills. Largest un-talked about area of business in the US.

High Margins. Strong domestic and international demand. Low wage pressure from the "workers". What is not to like. Too bad I cannot commit enough to enter the fund.

I was looking at websites under the keyword Hedge Funds and came across your website. I see that you're not ranked on the first page of Google for a Hedge Funds search.
I'm not sure if you're aware of why you're ranked this low but more importantly how easily correctable this is.
There's no reason you can't have a top three ranking for the keyword Hedge Funds based on your site structure and content. You have a very nice site.
You need significantly more one way anchor text backlinks. If you're interested I can help you with this...
I'm talking about getting you ranked for ALL your keywords. Adding new backlinks on a steady and consistent basis from high PR quality websites is what produces the rankings you are looking for.
The right kind of links are very critical in getting top ranking....and I can hand deliver these quality links to you.
My partners and I own 1000's websites and offer private linking to hundreds of website owners just like yourself.
I didn't send this email out to very many people but I am currently reaching out to a list of your "keyword competitors" as well. But I do favor your website because I can see your website monetizing the targeted website traffic the keyword Hedge Funds can deliver.
I have your contact information and phone number. Is it ok if I give you a call?
I have a very simple way to prove that what I do works and it's risk free for you to try. Nothing beats seeing the results with your own eyes.
Is it ok if I give you a call? I would love to pursue this further over the phone with you or should I go somewhere else?
Sincerely,
Adam Ross

P.S - If the tables were turned and somebody I didn't know came to me with a proposition, even one that was appealing, I would be hesitant because I would be wondering - what's the catch? What does this guy know that I don't?
But then I would think he does know something that I don't know. He does have thousands of high PR websites, he does have hundreds of thousands of pages indexed and ranking in Google Yahoo and MSN. Sites that can deliver the quality anchor text backlinks. I would also think that I need to get my website in the top rankings. And he is offering to turn key top rankings for me...on all my keywords including Hedge Funds. Even keywords I'm not currently competing for. Keywords that produce traffic that's potentially worth tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, millions of dollars.
I contacted you because It's a win -win for both of us. Think of it this way - Who wouldn't be interested in buying money at a discount? Because that's what I'll be able to do offer you...Money at a discount.
Is it Ok to give you a call? Or you can can call me anytime at the number above?
