I would be interested in getting some constructive comments about the design and layout of my Blog.
Yes, visitors are allowed to leave comments, just like any other WordPress Blog provides for.
Despite first appearances, I am planning targeting it at least 3 different areas. One would be what I know about SEO and web site design. What SEO areas would you like to see covered?

I have successfully implemented Relative Sizing in a WordPress Blog. It works equally well with 640x480, 800x600, 1024x768, and 1280x1024 screen resolutions. And, displays about the same in both FireFox, Internet Explorer, and Netscape.
So, why is fix screen width supposedly consider better by so many web developers? Are they nuts?

When you updrade wordpress it turns the editor off for some reason. Did you check under users >>your profile and make sure that the Use Visual Editor is checked?

Your blog is nothing more than an attempt to drive traffic to your site. It has nothing meaningful about what you claim are "trolls" of this forum. To be an accurate representation of your claims, half the site would need to be devoted to your own trollish behavior.
You would be wise to check the profile of anyone here that you intend to post comments about on your own blog. If their profile enables them to be identified, you would be exposing yourself to potential libel suits.
You claim a Trademark on Natural Health Perspective - you don't own a trademark on this term.
John, as I have said many times b4 - why not just try and play nice with other people???

Well, as usual, you are speaking garbage. If there is something there other than your self-congratulatory nonsense perhaps you could lend me your divining rod to track it down.
<<< now i see what you are patting yourself on the back about - naturalhealthperspective.net was dumped off GoDaddy.
I would have thought that rather than congratulating yourself over this, you would have taken the fact that someone created this site as a lesson to play nicer with other people. If whoever set that site up still has a bee in their bonnet, it is only going to cost them $50 a year to get paid hosting......so once again, I say to you, play nice and that sort of thing is vry unlikely to ever happen again.

I have dropped that idea. Why?
Well that other blog pointed out to me, that I did in fact have a long lost blog out there with a whole bunch of pre-existing external links, just waiting for a web site to claim them. :)
Thanks to that idiot blogger, I now have my first genuine MAJOR referral of hits to my site (next in rank to search engines). I am in fact getting a major number of referrals from my blog.

The SERPs indicate that the above blog of mine is in fact doing quite well. :)
In a couple of months, I should own ALL three (3) keywords that I am targeting. Your recent absence; Ha, ... Hah, Ha; should as planned pretty well destroy whatever standing your hate blog had in the SERPs. :)
The current status of my main website is pretty hard to figure out. : (
In December 2006, at the height of the success of my home page when it was in the top ten of the SERPs total referrals to my entire website from Google had actually declined by 50% from September 2006. In October, total hits to my site declined 25%. By December, another 25%. In January, the bottom fell out. But, what ever happened and for what ever reason took place over several months. Currently, my main website is on the road to recovery as my site statistics are steadily improving each month. :)
I have cleaned up and fixed all the broken links. Perhaps, that was my main problem?
Internal broken links can be a big problem since generally (not always) your home page has the most pagerank or linking power, with broken links that power isn't being passed around as efficiently as possible. Another aspect is that the anchor text of the link has as much to do with what the page ranks for as the content on the page, with a broken link you are not sending that important signal to the page.
404s and redirects are all part of a mature site, but they should come from the outside not from your own internal linking structure. If you've recently cleaned that up, expect your deeper pages to get a bump.

What I do know for sure, is that I was doing a heck of a lot better when I had a total mess of a website than after I cleaned it up with my SEO efforts. :(
Whenever you make a change, you risk all hell breaking lose. And, that is what happened to my site. Instead of hits going steadily up due to winter, they went down, down, and down over several months :(
Having had had 400 bad links could not have been good. But, was that the problem? It also appears that my dropping the left margin of internal links from all my level 2 web pages was a negative in Google. Their page rankings of my level 2 pages is NOT what I was expecting. So, I need to try switching back a few to test it out.
I never got any hits from the 'natural health' keyword even when my site was #9 in the SERPs. Currently, I am in the top ten in Google's SERPS for an almost identical key phrase, yet I do NOT get a single hit from it. The public is absolutely fickled. :(
Nevertheless, Google has moved up to the #2 position over MSN. So, I need to see if this new trend is going to continue. So, I wont file a reinclusion request until I can figure out better what is going on.

My blog being hosted at HostMySite has been recently re-invented. :(
I upgraded to the latest version of WordPress, which has enabled me to implement my 'Contectivity Guide' motif. As such, to the visitor it starts out looking like a regular web site with just regular web pages. But, once you manage to connect to the 'Connectivity Guide' it converts magically into a blog.
Also, it is the same web site as my main web site since it has the same domain name. But Google being unable to figure out that www.domain.com and domain.com are the same web site naturally, treats the blog.domain.com as a separate web site. But, not completely. Withe the site command, Google is mixing the two sites together on the same dump. So, I have the advantages of both worlds. It is both separate and the same site at the same time. :)
The FREE hosting at GoDaddy absolutely sucks. With Linux servers running the Latest version of WordPress, the visual editor does NOT work, spell checking plugins do NOT work, and the Exporting of data is less than perfect. :(
Whereas, my present hosting at HostMySite running WordPress on a Linux server works absolutely perfectly. Furthermore, the FireFox Spell check feature also works beautifully at HostMySite. It is well worth me paying a big $2.99 a month. Time is money as they say, and the FREE hosting at GoDaddy will cost you big time.
In short, the FREE hosting at GoDaddy is a total nightmare. Furthermore, it is FREE only for the first year. Thereafter, you have to pay for it. Therefore, that other Hate Blog must be experiencing the same nightmare. :)
But, I have figured out another work around. It is still a pain in the butt to deal with, however. And, it totally stifles my creativity. :(

I find reading Google Caches a very rewarding pastime. Do you?
[SEO Advice Mode ON] I bet I know why? The WordPress visual editor does not work with FREE hosting at GoDaddy. My mother always told me that you get what you pay for. GoDaddy's FREE hosting comes with a big price tag, IMO. May I suggest some program other than WordPress? Or, does nothing work on GoDaddy's FREE hosting except for dated static HTML websites?
Perhaps, Microsoft's FrontPage WYSIWYG editor might be exactly what you need? [SEO Advice Mode OFF]
I would just like to thank you for ALL the help that you have given me, recently. I much appreciate it. :)
Have you check your SERPs lately? Thanks to your recent absence, your position on a number of keywords has fallen a great deal. I found the above cache on Page 2 of the SERPs. :)
Your kind advice has benefited me and my web activities, immeasurably. :)
#1-You introduce me to WordPress, #2- Just Now you have told me what to do with my GoDaddy website when the one year least runs out, #3- You have allowed me to recover a long reference to a citation of my website by a genuine Medical Health researcher, #4- You Introduced me to the many benefits of online PHP programming, #5- You reminded me that I had a blog URL out there, with 40+ external links to it, just waiting for a website to them claim them, and Last but NOT least #5- I now operate a second web site at:
