Welcome to the forums.

Whilst I try and fight off the temptation to slate your site I cant help but feel you are, as you said working on your site and trying new things out.

Can I just say that you cannot have any form of ecommerce site whilst displaying google ads. Blog or affiliate site in harmony yes of course but not as a main ecommerce site.

Think about it. You target your customers with the aim of converting. The last thing you want to do is aid their way off of your site. By offering the customer an exit point by way of an ad you are removing him or her from potentially purchasing anything from you're site.

No offence I can see that your aim is to make money. We all do, but it helps deciding on the image/message you are showing your customer. The design obviously needs attending to and of course the main body of text is an absolute nightmare. Probably worse than the google ads.

I offer this advice to simply move you on a bit. Its a long road. I am nowhere near to the goal I have set. Even the site I have in my sig here has been left to ruin as I turn my hand at other alternatives but the great thing is its listed in google and when i am ready I can return and make it what it it should be.

Now I know I have been harsh. Its not my aim to deter you but more a case of trying to actually focus on what your sites message should be and what you can do to present it in a manner most of us see when shopping online.

Don't know that I've received it. Haven't had any from a Doug.

pete at smallbusinesshoster dot com

I've had two people buy today, but one was from another forum. Nothing at all from Doug.

Or. PM me. I don't like them, but they work.

WOW! I missed that being missing. I guess you'll have to ask Anthony where it is.

Actually, I happened to have a copy on my PC, so I've reposted it.

Thanks for jerking my chain.

OK! For $ 40 a month I'll come by and take out your trash.

Actually, there are plenty of those places. If nothing else, the net offers something for everyone.
