Hi Dan,

There's a lot of questions...I'll answer what I think is important/needed.

The "weight" allows you to control which resources will appear first/last. This lets you have control over how your SERPs will appear.

Also, by using different resources and/or inputting different weight values, you can create totally different pages, results.

Traffic can be created two ways:
1. Just like any search engine, if you have very good NICHE results, you'll get return visitors using your engine. The key is to spend some time and create a resource using high quality, hand picked links. Just as sites with high quality content will attract users, SEs with high quality resources will do the same.

2. Turn the SERPs into "pages". See the Making Pages Using FatBomb thread for more details.

Instead of worrying about all the other minor details, a big benefit of Fatty once it is set up, it can create pages about virtually "any" keyword instantly. You just need to learn how to link to it.

Fatty is also a great way to mix your own stuff in with other resources. Everything, blog, squidoo, hub, myspace, twitter you create that's relevant to the niche should be added to a custom database, so the results are included in Fatty results.

Once you create you own databases using your own resources, you can use RZZ to convert them to RSS. Now, you can easily add the same resources to BlogBomb and syndicate your own links to your entire BlogBomb empire.

Next, make some custom databases, then visit the Making Pages thread:
