    Site Makeover

    Ok, not a new site, but I have just finished a major makeover to my site http://www.limebrook.com and would welcome any comments anyone has.

    When I first started this site Blue Voda was a few versions behind, and I remember putting on the wish list that I would like the option of drop down menus! I remember the reply which was something like this couldn't be done! However, it was, as we all now know, and I have now taken advantage of this, and the i-frames.

    My site has grown and grown, and needed a major rethink to allow me to keep it going.

    I like to think that I have learned something along the way in the past 10 months since it first went live.

    I would welcome any comments on my site, and for the benefit of those just starting out, thought you might be interested in where Limebrook.com is now:

    In March 2006 I topped 1000 unique visitors for the first time (nearly 3000 visits in all)
    Visitors spend a staggering AVERAGE of 7 minutes on my site
    My index page has a google page rank of 3, and many other pages rank 1 or 2
    According to Alexa it is just outside the top 100,000 sites, being this week ranked at 112,858 - it has steadily been climbing over the last few weeks and I hope to shortly be in the top 100,000.

    BUT, horses and things thereof do not generate high paying keywords on Google ads, so the income is minimal, (about $25 per month).

    So - time and hard work do pay off!

    Please let me know what you think about the new look - I would welcome any constructive criticism of where to go next! Of course, I may have to rewrite it all again with the next version of BV - you guys really keep us on our toes!

    Thanks all

    Hi Trish,

    It looks great, it brings back memories for me. I used to raise Arabians and rode open jumpers. Good Job!
