Seddier shippers would have existed regardless. Just like Harry/Hermione shippers still exist even though nothing romanic happened between them (in the books). I totally believe that Dan didn't just fuel the fire but he lit the match, dropped it into the kindling and then poured gasoline on it. I know I thought "oh Sam and Freddie are pretty cute together" but I totally thought, as the audience in general was led to believe, that Creddie was going to be end game. After iKiss, it was game over for me.

It just honestly, doesn't make any good sense, for the kiss to have been between Sam and Freddie except of course, for Dan to capitalize on the Seddie fanbase. Character arc wise, it would have been much better for Carly to go find Freddie after Sam apologizes and then kiss him. Because then, even though Dan showed that Carly was just "putting up with" Freddie's crush, there could be a possibility for Carly's feelings to change and that she still cared about him.

In short, Dan just did everyting wrong when it came to both ships.
