Default Need Opinions

I still can't get the link on "our dogs" for the dog Ultimo to work. I am almost certain I have setting correct, don't know if it's my computer. The contact page won't work on my computer but I here it is working.
Please any comments.

No consistency throughout the site at all... every page is a different design and colour and yeah... that front page.... where's my shades?

I changed the background colors to a neutral color, now I have changed the index page background also. Changed buttons to a more solid color.

Arrow Re: Need Opinions

Ditto with all comments.

If you look at Google guidelines for basic SEO,
they give more importance to three things:

1. A unique descriptive title (tag) reflecting the business on the page
2. Description tag - In a couple of lines describe the business on the page
3. Content and unique content for every page

The title and the menu item description says
"Adults for Sale". What's that?

However, if you have developed your website for a chosen few
that already know about it, then your website is a good website.
So when you say "adults for sale", they already know what you mean.

I had "dogs for sale" which is what we all use for dogs for sale but a friend of mine asked why the puppies were not on that page so I changed it. Yes, all dog people know that "dogs for sale" are not puppies for sale.

Do you have any suggestions?? I will take them.

At this point with the changes I have made, are there still things you don't like? The backgrounds are the same and I toned down the front page.

Tell me.

Wink Re: Need Opinions

Hi Kris,
I leave it to the others to go blind & advise on colour/design etc....here's what I saw.

About: factors that raise Bravo Doberman to
Our Dogs: the link to
INT CH Ultimo di Altobello's pedigree doesn't work
That's about it, actually, except....for me; I found that, because some of your pages are a bit long, I would like very much to have a menu bar at the bottom of the page. Then I don't have to make the extreme effort of scrolling back up to the top menu - know what I mean? LOL
good luck,
david

So you are still "going blind" with the backgrounds changed and the color on the index page as it is now? I would really like comments instead of me having to guess at what you are talking about. You are talking about the colors behind the dogs at this point?
You mention my pages are too long. Is this a comment or criticism? If you think I can change this do you have any ideas on how I can keep people informed of ongoing news in the dog world?
Or should I take your advise and just put the buttons on the bottom.
I am not being flip, I would like your suggestions.

The home page is still bright red with neon dogs.. its just way over the line.. the rest looks better.

Break your information up to different pages or rewrite it.

Okay. I republished the index page again.
Is there any way to do a stationery button area? Probably the most visited website in the Doberman world, http://altobellodobermans.com has buttons that do not move to the left while his "news" page scrolls. I looked everywhere I could think of to find out if I could do this through Voda but I am unable to locate information.
The problem with moving buttons to the bottom is the most recent news will be at the top so many people will only look at the newest information.
I appreciate your comments. I really do.

You make a page with everything you want on ALL pages. Then saveit as a master.

Each page you make open the master, add content, then save as newpage.name. This way buttons headers footers all stay in the same place.

hi Klberg,

"Dogs for sale" is the way to go.

But you have "Adults for sale",
not only on the menu but the title as well.

I just don't know what that means. That's all.

Thank you for the info on the "master page". This is terrific. And I will change back to "dogs for sale". I am happy this works for you. Does for me too.

Okay, other then that the site doesn't make you motion sickness when you look at it now?

I created a master page and redid my "about us" page.
What I was looking for though is to have the page itself scroll and the buttons stay stationery. When I do the master page the buttons are all in the same spot, but they move with the page. I am trying to create buttons that do not move but the information on the page does scroll. It would be creating two pages on one to where one moves and the other does not? Is this possible?

I still can't get the buttons to stay put but I have redesigned the site to what I think you talked about. Please let me know what you think.

When I visit your about us page and then click on contact us it goes to Not Found you might want to fix that.
