What's Octopart's backup strategy if Google somehow punishes their site in their next algorithm change (ala so many other innocent sites during the Panda Update)? I bet 80% of the traffic comes from search engines. If those 80% leave, it's game over in terms of revenue and partnerships.
I think Octopart should somehow develop a strategy for returning visitors that doesn't depend on search engines.
