To the causes, the referring traffic source likes like it's coming from Domains4Good.org.

A cause would only seeing referring traffic when it's promoted as the top cause of the day. Links onsite at Domains4Good from cause submissions would also ultimately add to SEO value. Social referring traffic through Domains4Good promotions across all channels, not just redirect, will add value as well.

There are plenty of couches to stay on if that helps a bit.
You can go apartment open houses with me so I can move off of my friend's couch in Oakland. :-)

Besides from talking about how young entrepreneurs like myself do not see Microsoft as a threat, a photo in the middle of the article links to my picture!
