    WOW you've been busy for the past few months as well it seems. you've done a great job on your website.closest i can say i been to mexico is new mexico :)
    love the Mayans legacy though. very interesting people in that time period.

    but still curious about the year 2012 they predicted.

    Jim, try this site it explains it fairly well.....you will also see what some say is the first astronaut as King Pakal steers his space ship. The drawing around him depicts motion and fire with smoke and he is looking into a funnel shaped object , part of a steering device or is it a Mayan telescope hmmmm

    You've done well. There is a tad bit of overlap on the links to Chiapas and Tabasco - both run a bit over/into the pictures. You could move the pics down just a fraction of an inch and get rid of that :) On Chiapas if you move the pic down, you'll also have to move the text down - but there's extra space there so no problem.

    I just skimmed some text and saw this under Chiapas in Day Seven:
    Leave for Villahermosa and the you hotel

    I think you mean
    Leave for Villahermosa and your hotel.
    .

    On Day Three you kind of repeat yourself:
    Today the magnificent ruins of Palenque, the entire day will be used to fully explore these magnificent ruins.

    How about:
    Today you'll spend fully exploring the magnificent ruins of Palenque.

    Also, Maya isn't capitalized here.

    I think the site is fantastic - you need someone to help go over all the grammar, etc - just do final tweaking.

    Beth,
    If submitted as is....will the SEO program In BV help with the grammer etc.?
    You have been a great help..I remember from the beginning posting , hoping you'd be along shortly and you seemed to always be there.
    I still think we can do something along the lines of mexican pinatas and party favors. Let me know, but give a guide to go with, as far as price. I do not want to make any money from you buying here, just help find a distributor preferably one who is the manufacturer.
    By the way I will know next week about hotel, the "big boys" are still wanting to play and I did not and will not, so I left Mexico City and came home for the holidays. anyway let me know.

    I'd take Holly up on the help with wording - and I'd be happy to do some help with SEO -

    For example, I did a search and I think your home page title should start with "Guided Mexico Tours"

    Here are phrases people are using to search:

    adventure tours Mexico (not sure if you fit this?)
    tours in Mexico
    sacred Mexico tour
    jungle tour Mexico (?)
    Mexico Guided tour
    Mexico tour package
    Mexico travel tour
    cultural tour Mexico

    Those are lots of the phrases that fit you and people are currently using to find what you offer - so using those words and phrases will help you.

    Choco, nice work,

    I wont go into the same things Beth and LE highlighted. You want to make sure there are no typos or grammatical snafus, their help will really get your page in perfect form.

    I would suggest something that is marketing related and visual. Your NavBar buttons have an arrrow that points down, might want to change them to point up or horizontally. same with the mouse over.

    In your forum, the "MayaTabasco Home" button doesn't go back, check the link.

    I was looking for a map, I thought you had one before.

    Going to include Celestun? A fantastic ecological secret.

    The NavBar and marketing. Since users focus on it to get around you want to use a "positive" recognition/reinforcers icons; arrows pointing down generally are negative. Your colors are fine.

    Choco! Looking mighty fine! On your policy page the link to your forum doesn't work. I agree with Bill, in that I would put a few maps up, as I'm not familiar with the particular areas and so have to go look on a map! Great Job!!!

    I spotted a few mis-spellings and grammatical things still....but I am so tired now I forgot which pages!
    I think one of the last I found was on Tours..."with the" is runon as "withe" and same page some capitalizations and syntax errors (where you re-worded the slogans).

    I like the fact you went with a suggested layout, but I still think you can "shorten the pages" quite a bit, which should make things looks tighter and more balanced.

    I promise to go back to find the things that look fuzzy to me now. (Still haven't caught up on sleep from travelling for 2 days - jetlag max!)

    G:
    If you wish to use some of the elements first suggested here (the page background, some of the green "bars," or even some of the pictures I found), I can always email them to you (providing your email is working now). I know Holly is helping a bit, so if need be, I can forward them to her on your behalf???

    No, and my email has always worked except a few times that were immediately corrected. You don't need to send anything to anyone on my behalf. I doubt the mistakes. By the Way Beth is helping also. What no big trip in January? What happened?

    Hi Choco,

    If you would like to put your logo on my site, I would be happy to do that for you. WE are almost ready to go (catalog page getting there ) and will be doing TV commercials. Let me know if you feel this would be good for you.
