Sat, 10 May 2008 12:05:32 -0700 Sory, I didn't get back to you earlier, but I have met up with this marketer through the chamber of commerce. Nice fellow. English. I realize all the things wrong with my website. It looks pretty, but I have no control over the root directory, so I can't add codes, so search engines can find EVERY page (not just the home page, as now) and that's only with the 4 search engines they gave me, so I'm very limited.
So, I'm with this new marketing guy who is moving my domain names and COMPLETELY making over my entire website (It will still be at: www.realmiamivice.com) where it will have a blog, audio tapes of actual radio shows I've been on, nice photo gallery, commercials, links, and will crawl over 100 search engines, so I can really get spread out there on the Internet.Thanks again for the advice.
