Are We There Yet?


Posted on June 7th, 2011 by Riak in Web Design

As you have seen (if you check here now and then) I have done some major changes to the site. A lot of errors were fixed like the Js share plugin not working on the blog a few spelling errors and broken links, oh yeah and I added a forum.

Its powered by BBpress, at the moment its pretty basic but its fast and simple to use and it is seo friendly (always a good sign) development on it seems to be non existent. If my web design forum gets really popular I will definitely upgrade to a commercial forum for a better user experience.

Although I have improved this site it still has minor issues but I thought I would get this update out rather than have it setting on my hard drive. I still need to sort out site maps, improve a few pages and add a web design portfolio. EDIT: I also need to fix a huge error with my nav in ie6.  ie7+ are fine except my font isnt loading for the site title. (weird as my other 2 fonts are loading) so the site looks rubbish in IE at the moment, don’t view it, its embarrassing… also ie7 has a z-index issue not a major prob though.

After that is done I have to do some hardcore SEO work to get my site ranking high for its own name geez, then I will work on my keywords like “web design forum” and “web design agency” see what i did there.

Check out my web design forum and introduce yourselves. or drop a comment and let me know what you think of the new website.

And don’t ask why I have a new website that deserves a whole new blog post….
