Of course I've lost something...I've lost 2 going on 3 or 4 days of income from all the people who would have signed up but couldn't, I've lost all the money from the people who are demanding refunds, and I've lost respect from my students who think this is all my fault (and who it will be harder to sell future courses to). I've lost marketing dollars for ad spends that have sent traffic to the site the last 2 days pointing to a course that isn't there (granted I caught this one early but it's still tangible). The course website gets decent Google organic search traffic...but the course site has been gone for 2 days now...how do you think Google will react? I'd be amazed if they didn't penalize the site in the rankings after this.

What are you talking about?
