[edit] Koded

Reads like spam. Google search seems to indicate that this company is not notable. --Spring Rubber 23:31, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

Maybe...did you check out the external link? I'm not either supporting it or condemning it, but just a thought.--ViolinGirl^♪ 23:35, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

I've looked at it, but it's hard to tell whether or not they actually have influence in what they do. Are they more than a small web-services business? Are they as influencial as the article claims them to be? I'm rather skeptical about that claim. --Spring Rubber 23:53, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

Yeah...well, like I said, I'm not supporting or condemning them. I agree with you, SR, it is hard to tell whether they do have influence or not...I haven't ever heard of them before. Maybe that's just because I'm not from the UK. I'd like to see some other proof from someone other than RTI.--ViolinGirl^♪ 01:06, 21 December 2005 (UTC)

• Delete per guidelines for inclusion of companies (which I suggest the author reads before arguing for inclusion further). Very little verified except that this company exists. I'm unconvinced by the inclusion of this company in a list of profiles of "search engine marketing service providers", none of which I've ever heard of and none of which we have articles on (except this one). Since this article was created by its subject, it doesn't look likely that this one out of that list is particularly notable. --Last Malthusian 11:49, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
• Delete...I don't have time to read through WP:CORP thoroughly at the moment, but from my 5 second speed-read of it, it looks like LM is right...--ViolinGirl^♪ 22:10, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
