How rude! I also fail to see why this is actually relevant!

Oh Valli, don't be over sensitive about this...asking someone whether they know stats isn't either rude nor against or violate MSE forum ethics?

Oh by the way, Valli, see a snippet below...a keyword that works beautifully on google for ad links.
Suggesting a change of 'business model' from all those copycat 'passport renewal' SEO armies burning their midnight oil to penetrate google..hehehe... :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:. do you agree? ;-)

I will answer the above if you could you please confirm whether you understand principles of 'stats' or what is generally termed as statistics... Please do so without fail. Waiting for your reply.

I asked you a question first so you answer first.

Basically, hpuse, you are trying to wriggle out of being shown that you are wrong by narrowing the current field of discussion to be specifically about passport copycat websites.

Fair enough - as long as no more newbies hunted by passport application/renewal copycats come and open up another case.
There is no hope for posters here to 'service' them anymore...:rotfl:

You've still not answered the question

I think you have the wrong idea about this website.
No posters 'service' other posters.

If someone uses one of the websites and asks for advice, I'm sure one of the regular posters will help

Oh Pollycat, ...here is the answer for you.

The stochastic probability of a copycat site being a passport was high when the thread was started. And evidences from this thread indicate that such copycats were evenly distributed on on focusing on consumers habbits while searching for passport application or passport renewal.
Statistical correlations on google search trends also indicate the passport renewal was the no:1 targetted SEO term by copycat perpetrators on government services. Hence the title of the thread was kept government copycat, rather than passport copycats.
Hope that explains...Oh by the way, if you need any help in understanding my post - please don't be shy - I am as helpful as ever and just aiming to be at your levels in copycat 'customer servicing' :rotfl: to understand my post.

Anyone else needs understanding, please shout, BoP, what about you?

Probably spending all of their working hours reading the MSE forums and having a good laugh at this one in particular.

Perhaps the best statistical joke from this thread is the correlation between 'thanks' and the quality of posts....

No the best statistical joke is the large number of useless incomprehensible posts versus the small number of lucid helpful posts by you.
