the fact that JG, who is the main offender here took it upon himself to

Hi Steve,

Thanks for the advice. I thought about not posting, because I know that it
can backfire. However, I was gambling that there were people here who
actually enjoyed sailing, and I was hoping to reach them. Sites like mine
only really spread through word of mouth. If a few people really like it,
then it just might catch on. I guess what I really need to do is reach into
my pocket and buy some ads. I got some free ad money when I signed up with
my service, but I have been hesitant to buy more with my own money,
especially when this is not a money making venture.

As for the meat versus vegetarian lifestyle, and its ethical implications, I
refuse to take sides. I like my veggies, but my family had roots in farming
and ranching before we moved to the coast. I will spare you the details of
that life, but I let's just say I enjoy a good steak now and then.

Finally, I got the sailing bug big time. I always admired the grace and
beauty of a sailing ship on the water, but I didn't really get hooked until
a convergence of events. I used to be the editor for a couple of online RC
magazines, and one day I got a RC sailboat in the mail. The site I worked
for was dedicated to planes, but I had to give the boat a try. Something
about it intrigued me. Anyway, not long after I got hooked on RC sailing,
my day-job employer sent me out to San Jose. While I was there, I visited
San Francisco. After I saw the boats on the bay, I knew I had to get my own
boat. My wife supported me 100%, and now my family and I sail together. It
has been the best family time we have ever spent together, and I love being
out on the water. You should try it again some time. I will admit it isn't
for everybody. I have a buddy who was in the Navy, and he can't stand
sailboats. He's more of a jet-ski type of guy. Oh well. Different strokes
I guess...

Thanks again,
Dave

man, screw paying for advertising!
as you correctly say; with a hobby site, word of mouth is indeed your best
advertisement.
I'd also suggest ensure that the meta tags in your html contain appropriate
keywords.
Also include as many links to other relevant sites as possible. it's been a
long while since I did any webdesign so things might well have changed since
then, but the way google used to work when it did its bizarre monthly
"google-dance" was to rate by exterior links to your site, so trading links
is definitely the way to go.

the one time I was in a half-rater (the owner called it that) with a few

posting it all at the top now?

A Chapel was built in the midst,
Where I used to play on the green.

And the gates of this Chapel were shut
And "Thou shalt not," writ over the door;
So I turned to the Garden of Love
That so many sweet flowers bore.

And I saw it was filled with graves,
And tombstones where flowers should be;
And priests in black gowns were walking their rounds,
And binding with briars my joys and desires."

William Blake.

"When the Earth has been ravaged and the animals are dying, a tribe of
people from all races, creeds and colours shall put their faith in
deeds, not words, and make the land green again. They shall be known as
Warriors of the Rainbow, protectors of the environment."
