This is a reasonably fair characterization (though candidly, I have not worked out all the details yet).

I considered simply making an equity investment (like YC does), but don't have the bandwidth to do something like that at this time.

One of the reasons I didn't post this article until after the YC deadline is that I wanted to make sure people didn't confuse this as an alternative to YC. As you noted, the role is very different.

Not for everyone, but might make sense for some.

Howdy Dharmesh. I think it's a cool idea--good luck with it. I like the http://www.websitegrader.com/ app. I ran it on a couple sites I'm involved with and got some good suggestions.

Thanks. This is a pet project of mine (amongst others). Response so far has been pretty good. We haven't officially "launched" it yet, but about 9,500 URLs have been processed by the tool so far. It's a fun little tool to work on.

I hadn't seen the site before, very cool. My only suggestion would be to offer the necessary syntax when relevant, e.g. for adding meta keywords. Granted, it only takes thirty seconds to lookup, but people are more likely to make the changes immediately before they forget if it's right there.

Also, the "Permanent Redirect Not Found" section only lists my www. domain and not the main domain.

(some of the inbound links may point to www.hotdailymotion.com and others to ) there's a blank where it should say "hotdailymotion.com"

note: safe is Not Safe For Work.

Yeah, that sounds about like it. Not hugely appealing to me but I've enjoyed his blogs posts and maybe it would work for some folks here.

Agreed, not appealing for everyone.
