Why the whole post is an uncrawlable image on a SEO website is something I cannot understand (and we’re not april 1st yet on the publication date)

These instructions notwithstanding, I was planning to crowdsource purchase Tiger Woods’ yacht which is for sale for $25 Million using Kickstarter.

At the dollar level, you’ll get a pirated digital photo of the boat scraped from the TMZ site. At the five dollar level, you’ll get an mp3 file of the sound of the waves lapping the hull of the boat. And at the hundred dollar level, you’ll get an invitation to view the boat from the nearest dock or shoreline (travel not included). Who’s with me?
