>>"If so, what's the best strategy for a new site with few backlinks that's largely unlisted?"

PFI - I didn't say it wasn't, in fact this is just what I was trying to say in my post.

>>If you are in a very competitive market, you would be lucky to get 50-100 clicks

Again, I did say "if your chosen keywords aren't very competetive"

The situations mentioned above are good cases for PFI. I was discussing those situations where it is unnecessary.

>>I would also recommend SEO on the PFI page

I took this as given. If you don't optimise pages you are wasting your time. My argument basically comes down to this - if you promote a site well then PFI becomes pointless because well promote sites are crawled often for free.

Although i'll have to clarify this again I think: If you have a regularly updated, unindexed site with no incoming links in a competitive area, then go for PFI ;)
