XML feeds really only benefit those sites that have frequent updates.

It scrolls the latest headlines over a news reader so that people can keep in touch with what you are putting on your site without having to visit every 5 seconds. Seeing as you probably won't update more than once or twice a week at best (for now at least) don't worry about this.

Why does the "Forums" hyperlink link to a .htm that forwards to the /Forums/ folder? Why can't the hyperlink just link directly to "http://www.pvphelp.com/Forums/"?

i was having trouble last night with frontpage, so i just used a redirect meta tag.

Open the file itself in notepad and change the link manually.

i tried that, but the frontpage html doesnt have text to edit for the nav bar. i removed the theme that i used, so maybe now i can do it.

What part about "notepad" don't you understand? Don't use frontpage. What do you mean you can't find the text for the nav bar? Are you using frames? If you're using frames, each frame is it's own .html file. You have to find the right file to open that corresponds with the nav bar/frame.
 
New rule: Don't post new websites you made using frontpage. Frontpage should be cast into the depths of hell.

First off there a nice way to talk to people and then there isnt. Im not a moron and i tried notepad, and when i input the website www.pvphelp.com/Forums it wont work. I dont know why, as you can see from the site im not a web design pro so sorry if frontpage makes it easy enough for me.

Until webdesign becomes FREE, i will have to stick with frontpage for now. I know basic HTML, and to be honest using frontpage is a lot better than typing it into notpad. WYSIWYG.......the way i like it.

If you know basic HTML it wouldn't be a problem.

Change your link tag to this:
<a href="forums/">Forums</a>

most likely your problems was due to the fact that capilization makes a difference in links when it comes to HTML.

Again, if you know basic HTML, this shouldn't be a problem at all. If you can't correctly do a simple link in raw code, you shouldn't be attempting webdesign. No offense, but for once I DON'T think this is a FrontPage error.

This is Gabe's new baby, well a hobby for Gabe to work on while Gabe is not working. So that explains why Gabe's site looks like an 8 year old Gabe made it.

Gabe was just hoping someone here could give Gabe some ideas for Gabe's site. Gabe has hit a major roadblock, and since Gabe's web design skills are very minimal, using FrontPage only, Gabe doesnt know where to go from here.

Gabe will update Gabe's meta tags etc when Gabe's site is complete.

Thanks AT

so i updated my site, what do you guys think? any one have a pvp that wants to join the forums and share some experiences?

 
thanks i appreciate it. i hope there are enough pvp owners to make the forums worthwhile.

should i add anymore forums?
 
Nah, it looks pretty good to me. I have even less at my site just because until I get it off the ground and running smoothly I doubt people will even post. Not to mention if it's TOO spread out then it's hard for a core community to form.
 
well now im getting excited, but still no forum members. how can i get more?

i'm number 2 for portable video player at msnsearch
number 4 or 5 for personal video player at msnsearch
number 10 for pvp help at google
and i was number 4 for pvp help on yahoo.

the guy that did my site got me all these positions in the time from the day this thread was created till today. not bad turnaround for seo.
