Need Input for the site!! - Fishing Forum | Fishing Tackle | Fishing Gear

FishingLTJ · 10-18-2007, 11:54 AM

Here's the deal.

Right now the site goes to a homepage that is filled with information on the site and news. I don't know if I like it or not? I think it draws away new members and such because they are not in the forum.

Anyway, I was thinking of having the forums on the homepage of the site with a right/left hand side bar for forum sponsors or news?

Maybe once the site gets to it's full potential, or close, i'll add the homepage back to the site.

What do you guys think on this? You are the users here! Let me know in this thread. Thanks in advance!!!!

I think that sounds great!!

I liked that ALL the newest posts comes up first, too. I want to be able to jump in and see what's new...!

Straight to the forums would be nice and would probablly attract more members rather than staring at ads.

Welcome back from your cave dirtbag!!! Anyway, done deal then. I'll start working on getting the forums on the homepage, and we'll see if that attracts more people to sign up for the forums. Thanks guys!

Get back to work dirtbag!

And a view new posts button woudl be great.

I know I asked about this before - but the RSS feed thing seems like a one way street - I do not see ant MyFishSite links on the other end?

I like that you lost the google ads for now, looking much better.
