Finally Ready!!!
« on: Sunday 21 August 05 21:46 BST (UK) »

Hi everyone,

I'm finally ready and happy with my website. A lot of the links aren't working yet, but will be in due course.
I've only got a few of my rellies in, but the others are gradually being added.

I'd really appreciate comments in my guest book and any feedback.

Well done Adam. It looks really good. Only thing I am not sure about is the counter linked like that and the tally going up with each page viewed. I don't think that will give you a very accurate idea of how many visitors you actually have. Signed your guest book. At least you have one. I can't figure out how....LOL....All the best will check back to see your progress......Kris

Echo Kris's point about the guest book - unless it's important to you that you can show off an inflated number of visitors!

If you want to assess interest you could try a search engine - mine gives me reports which show what people have searched for on my site.  I got it from http://www.freefind.com/.

Good luck with the next steps.

Hello all,

Thanks you for your kind remarks about my site, and for signing my guest book.

Not sure what to do about the counter, as it seems to go up every time someone views any page on the site.

Julian - I've signed up with freefind (although I'm not sure exactly what it does yet).

I'm hoping to get more pictures up soon.

Regards,
Adam

Hi Adam

My webcounter also increments by page view.  Its not really a problem (it must be the way the Rootschat counter works?) and, like Julian, I use a web-based programme that was free (Statcounter) which I can access at any time. 

The level of detail available from these reports is stunning - which pages were viewed, how the person found the site (the referring page), how long they spent on the site (a surprising number of folk spend less than 5 seconds! Smiley) and lots more.

Your website's looking good and I look forward to seeing its future development.

cheers

Paul

Hi Paul,

Thanks for taking the time to look at my site, and for signing my guestbook. I've signed up with Statcounter - very interesting to see all those reports about visitors to the site.
