The Yahoo ads and food network site for the Great Food Truck race has been down for some time, which must mean record demand has blown a fuse at the NOC or that someone forgot to recharge whatever Iphone it is running on. Nevertheless, the Great Food Truck race pits seven food trucks, three of them from Los Angeles, against hot and cold ice cream competitors.
The American TV road trip Odyssey taps the hot food truck trend. Coverage form a Google search the day of the premiere renders results not from the source. News is everywhere from TVsquad to the LA Weekly to Entertainment Weekly, just no originating domain bandwidth is available. Pity. Usually getting information about a TV premiere is a bit easier, especially online.
What a waste of SEO and active links! Looks like whomever blogs a website about this will get plenty of hits.
It’s a gutsy move using Yahoo banners and prominently displayed advertising online to promote a that-night series premiere of a roach-coach reality show, and then not have servers or links running when the click on the banner loads. Could this be the start of “un-advertising?” Either that or whomever hosts the Food Network site has some competition worries from any web hosting company that can form a service offering quote.
