I hope to develop it further to include other POD companies, as well as add some content on the tshirt marke in general. The reason that Zazzle always comes top is because their pages are higher ranked (by Google) than Spreadshirts :( And whys that? Nobody (except Google) knows exactly how their algorithms work, but two things count against Spreadshirt, which also count as bonus points for Zazzle. So a double whammy for Spreadshirt. :( 1. The levels in the URL - Spreadshirt = 9 and Zazzle = 2, for any given design 2. Spreadshirt revamped all their URLs "recently" which means they are all new pages to Google, not established like Zazzle. There may be other reasons, but that's my take on it.
