Not reliant on third party service - true, but most people can't run anything nearly as reliable of some of those services. 2. Sends link juice to your domain, not a service provider - most of them use 301 redirects and don't take any linkjuice at all. Just thought it should be put out there. Andrew,
Cool service and congrats on getting DNW.COM

As far as your points though, some are not correct:
1. Not reliant on third party service – true, but most people can’t run anything nearly as reliable of some of those services.
2. Sends link juice to your domain, not a service provider – most of them use 301 redirects and don’t take any linkjuice at all.

Just thought it should be put out there.
