But we don't warrant editors of SCA-related paper publications printed
with private funds. Isn't a web page about the same? Thousands of
people a month land on my webpages from web search engines. For most of
them it is probably their first contact with the SCA. But most of
these webpages are miscellaneous A&S materials, not the "Barony of Foo
Homepage".
