Well.... I'm sorry but I have to be brutally honest with you here.... I loved the picture at the top and though 'ooh, this looks good' then the rest loaded and I though 'oh, how disappointing'. There is nothing on your site to make me want to stay and have a look around. If you seriously want people to visit your site and click on some of your affiliate links then you have to provide something of interest. Some articles about the area, pictures of places to go and things to see. Also a page choc-a-block full of banner ads is not a good thing, as I have learned. There is no order, no logic that is apparent. If you need to do this on your home page then I think you need to have a little order in there. It's a headache at the moment.

I apologise if you think this sounds harsh but my aim is to be honest in order that you can actually make your website attract visitirs and make you some money. It won't do either in it's current format, I fear. You've done a good job learning how to use BV - and have the basics of a good site - you just need to put in a little more thought and work and you could have a money-spinning masterpiece.

I very much agree with Amanda. You also need to check your spelling. Good Luck

Don't be discouraged. Your mastery of BV web builder is evident and a great accomplishment. Your site just needs a little organizing.

But it is all mixed together. You will find that web surfers are not patient people. If it is not right there and easy to locate- they will move on.
Maybe try a web page for each subject?

Anyway- keep encouraged and have fun.

Andy´s suggestion of a seperate web page for each subject is a sound one as at the moment S.E´s will take this site as being a Link Farm.

Amanda and Cindy have been their usual honest selves and I would listen and learn from thier candid opinions.

Thats what these forums are all about, look, listen and Learn.

You have the basics for a very good site......keep going.

Have fun

Hi tg,

I agree with all the above comments, the picture at the top of your site is beautiful and a nice opening to your site, but your site needs organising better, it looks a little messy right now.

Maybe navigation buttons down the left side, there are nicer looking buttons about, than the ones you have, which will enhance the look of your site, then like someone said a separate page for each of your subjects ..the main one being the rocky mountains iI would have loved to have seen info about the area and pics on that , then you can have your banners/ads relating to that subject.

Also you need to set your page widths before you do anything else as you have a big sideways scroll on each page ..very off putting to most people ...to fix this click on the link below.

Hope this helps you ...you will get there :o)
