Okay, I have read over this post, poked around in my code, came back and read again, reviewed my site...
I *really* appreciate the review - but I have to admit I'm a little confused
First, I was trying to figure out why, when I type "www.selfstartersweeklytips.com/forum" into my browser, it automatically changes itself to "http://selfstartersweekltips.com/forum". That also happens if you click on the link from my main page...
I went in to my admin panel - for the php forum - and changed my domain from "selfstartersweeklytips.com" to "www.selfstartersweeklytips.com" - but it didnt seem to keep that from happening.
This one I am totally lost on...
Perhaps it would help if I took your second piece of advice and used absolute URL's instead of just "index.htm, forum, articles.htm" etc. I'll try that!
Now wait a sec... if you go to my main page and look at the current article (will change in 48 hours tho!) - it gives a link to the forum... starting with
http://www..... - and if you click on it - it STILL takes the "www" out! Why is that??
I understand what you said about the session ID's and admit that it was a messy copy & paste job in that instance. Sorry 'bout that
Can you explain this one in depth?>
Another aspect is to have your Webpage's "KEYWORD PLACES" contain your primary 3-word (or 4-word) keyword phrase in order to acquire maximum ranking consideration for the search engines.
Lynn, do you have a primary 3-word (or 4-word) keyword phrase?
What are the "keyword places" - assuming you arent talking about meta tags? And would my keyword phrase be the same as my "tag line" or "defining statement"? I've been toying around with this "tag line":

However - it doesnt appeal to the newbies and start-ups as much as I'd like for it to... thoughts? And that wasnt what you were talking about, was it?? LOL
