Great article, I just friended & messaged you on FB

Thank you for all the attention and fantastic suggestions. I have begun implementing most of the suggestions here and we are going on a revamp of the site based on these recommenda…

thank you, very helpful

I view the problem of too much information as a detractor. Let's say you go to Netflix Instant View and want to watch a comedy. Most of those are 1 or 2 stars and you needlessly fl…

Yes, i've been rather successful at getting reviews for the project on some travel blogs, which did produce some results, but died out over time.

It's funny that you mention this, because this is what I did this last year. I spent Dec 09 - July 10 traveling all around Argentina, Uruguay, Brazil, and South Africa. I handed ou…

interesting idea .... i will def look into it

The articles get a decent response. Activity usually lasts 2-3 days but the users only click on other articles from there and then bounce. There isn't a lot of promotion as most pe…

I have thought about this, but that is a very very long term goal. I can't juggle too many balls and have to create income off whatever I have first before I go into growth. But, f…

It is in the works and your second suggestion is brilliant! Hadn't thought of that. Can also update on WiFi (which is what I was thinking about) I think it is a little premature fo…

I get an average of 3000 visitors a month and have 148 registered users, of which 60 or so are family and friends. Most of the traffic generated has come from Google Adwords and te…

I have, but, I would then have to make one completely no-follow to not get dilution from double content, right? I can see how I can focus on that one niche and become profitable, b…

will do. We originally had a flash banner and crap like that ... that was opted against for various reasons

By map you mean a generic map with clickable countries to take you to the embassies of that country? I'll consider it. I'll have to see how size would play into the visible area of…

True, but when you search for keywords on Embassies, you directly compete with .gov sites that will always outrank you. My idea behind the embassy section was to ensure that contac…

Well, the embassy section is the most developed part of the entire site as it is the oldest. Most of the date is kept up-to-date in terms of contact information for the embassies a…

I feel an iphone app may be too much time/money spent when I don't have the base of the site fully functioning or very usable. Resources are tight now, so I would want to focus on …

* I'm not exactly sure what I'm getting for clicking on "sign up." Is it only a travel blog platform or is there more? Travel blog that scoops up recommendations to populate travel…

I've seen places where I can get services. I think it was Odesk.com and I think there are some others. But yes, getting disenfranchised with a project usually involves doing a lot …

Oh I will!

Thanks, I had no idea how to do that

thank you, will look into this

Facebook Connect is in the works. I was thinking of having an internal like button to use with the internal point system each user gets for being active. facebook group already exi…

The audience right now is focused on the backpacker type, but I want to eventually give it a feel as a go-to place to add your travel stories. My idea is to eventually have backpac…

In 2006, I graduated from college and took a 2 month trip through Europe. I realized that travel help was limited to huge corporations that gave outdated info and that there was no…
