Google Problem

While trying to work out how to get my blog listed on Google, I discovered that its impossible, since Google now requires you to have at least one other website which links to it first, and that website must obviously already be in the big linked network in Google’s database. Getting someone to link to your website can be very, very difficult (without cheating), especially for an African interest blog, since there are only about three Africans on the Internet. This made me realise why other search engines are needed. Also, why you often can’t find what you’re looking for on Google. There must be thousands of websites for niche topics, communities and businesses which will now never get onto the Google database. This suggests that I must start using another search engine, since the very best stuff is probably the least linked to. Also, I must set up a Google-linked website to allow everyone to put links to their unfound sites, and thereby get them into the Google database. Its funny that now that Google is so big, they are so arrogant, that they start losing the plot, and allowing gaps for competitors to take up.
