hi..... i want to set up 2 websites.... one for selling and another one just for promoting anotherside of the business........


i have read about mr site in various threads on mse...... all saying how good it is etc.... is it really that simple to set up....?

i mean idiot proof.......

Oh yes. I use it, so it has to be :rotfl:

I had trouble getting the google code in to the header, I haven't done it quite right. It's there, but not working properly, I'm going to get my techie friend to do it for me

What "google code"?

I was always under the impression that google just trawled the web and indexed pages by the content of the page rather than whats in the meta tags (which can easily be cheated).

Sorry, I was also thinking of Adsense at the time :doh:

I had a google voucher for £30, you have to add a meta tag to the header on your site and then verify it but although it's there, google says it isn't :rolleyes:

COOLTRIKERCHICK, please ignore the bit where I talk about a code :rotfl:

Thanks tru, I was confused for a minute there (not hard to confus me though).

Would you mind pm'ing me a link (or posting if allowed) to the site that you created using Mr Site so we can see what it looks like?

Thank you

right i have bought mr site..... went to pc world and they i asked them about their price match promise ......so instead of paying £29.99 i save £5 and bought it for £24.99.... good old mse they taught me well..hehehehe....

anyway ..... going to try and register my part of my company name as the website... but do i go for .co.uk or do i go for .com ?

is there a big diff when it comes to general searches etc...........

F1F1

Preferably both. Set it so they both go to the same URL.

Hi all,

At last something I can elp with!!

I looked into buying the Mr Site package, but wasn't keen on the cost each year. Slowly building my own... very slowly!

The Mr Site official forum closed down last year and apparently isn't re-opening. There is however a fantastic fan site of Mr Site users, full of advice, examples and friendly people.

address is...
http://www.aboutmrsite.com/

I hope it helps you.

Good luck with the web sites.
