Irish Newspaper Archives
« on: Thursday 02 March 06 13:46 GMT (UK) »
Hi All,

I've been working on a website that may be of interest to many of you that visit or post here.

The site is http://www.irishnewspaperarchives.com

We will be adding many more regional titles in the coming months.

All feedback is welcome.

Kind regards,

Paul Doherty

Had a browse around the site and here are a few suggestions:
1. Another pay option say 10 views for 4:50, you would be far more likely to get  the one time subscribers that way.
2. There is something a miss with your date searcher, it doesn't search the dates specified and told me that the from date must be before the to date, which it was.
3. A marker on the main page not just in account details as to how many credits are remaining.

I'll pass on the information on your pricing suggestion to the marketing & finance guys.

Thanks for pointing out the problem with the date search. That's fixed now.

We will be including a marker on credits in the next week or so.

Thanks for your comments and feedback.

Much appreciated.

Paul

Good luck with the site.
