My best performing website is Mixing Live Sound. I get steady search engine traffic to this site. The content is a bit limited at the present, but each time that I add an article I see a slight uptick in traffic to the site. This is a niche site for the live sound industry.

I went with my three column format. I moved the articles index to the left nav panel. On the right I put a box for random quick tips at the top with an ad rotator under the tips box. I dressed these boxes with a small border. I also moved most of the biographical information to an expanded ‘about us’ page. I am using different local nav items in the top and bottom nav bars. I have left the old front page on the server for a time. If you want to compare the old page to the new page follow those page links.

I have a goal to update many of the sites during my typically slow season. Of course, the priority for this is to update the better performing sites first, and then trickle down to the lesser sites. I have a notepad file in which I am keeping ideas for sites and improvements to sites. The list keeps getting longer as each idea seems to spawn a few more.
