Yeah, it’s the mobile coding and commercial store/merchant functions that need upgrading in the business. Crikey, what people ask for, for doing this. And bad experiences with godaddy and credit card “captures” and re-charging.

Appreciate the tips I’m getting here, and have to evaluate. A farm is much simpler but other biz is starting to move and require more sophistication. Not a WordPress or blogger page. And definitely not giiigle domains. The data mining is really a pain.

Well google's web crawler will get you anyway unless you pw protect everything. They randomly collected photos I had in special directories. I don't know if pw protecting them would have worked but it was more on my learning curve, and I didn't want to bother.

Google already got me indirectly. It was through youtube. I refuse to use their browser though. Eventually I will be locked out of many sites because I have refused to upgrade my browser.

Good luck with your site. My son used GoDaddy for his business. Then he started another one, probably put it on GD, too. He got a web designer from Texas to design his site, think he told me it was $5K. He had to upload all the little thumbnails. It had one crazy password.

A web designer would probably do maintenance for you but it would probably cost more. Some others around here would be more in-the-know about it. Obviously if you want to draw business, you can't have a simple simon website like I put up. I liked it though and so did the few people I knew who used it. Why did they like it? No frills, super-intuitive and user friendly.

I used my last bird stamp to send you-know-who a birthday present (don't want to have to ping YKW) lol. Anyway, I usually don't but completed their survey which dealt with web design. I felt there were a few flaws with links, it's not the best-designed site in the world. I had to get some more stamps.

FR I am happy they have kept the same design and not added frills. I'm trying to think of a great website. I guess there aren't any right now. YT isn't too bad for what it is.

I think my problem is I have my desktop from years ago with a large screen. It doesn't seem that most sites bother to code for that now. ABC changed their design, having several articles one under the other seems to be the way to go. WAPO has theirs like that now, too. Now the comments have a pop up screen and videos are screwed up.

Giigle domains lol.
