Firstly, I just like to say hi to all the webmasters and members of this site - it seems there are some very helpful and knowledgeable people around here! :D

Well, I managed to get my site designed and approved all in one day, thanks to Sitebuilder and the people who designed it! It was a bit daunting at first, but after a short while it all made sense and was easy to use.

Although I work in IT, I have always shied away from anything to do with learning about HTML or the various web design programs.....a case of the great unknown I suppose. So that is where it made life a lot easier for me. I hope it will give me the confidence to learn to design myself one day soon....

I have read through as many posts as possible trying to avoid newbie questions, but there are a few things I'm not too sure about. If any of you busy people can find the time to help, I should be most grateful!

I have submitted my site to Google and DMOZ, but I realize it might take a long time for my site to filter into the system. I was wondering what practical steps I can take to get a little traffic and make this venture a little financially rewarding.

Am I right in thinking that I will need to open an MGP account with AB? And if so will that entail having to build another site from scratch for the purpose of promoting my site? I do find this whole MGP/reciprocal thing a bit confusing. :shock:

Is it possible to change the e-mail contact address on my AB site, as I do not particularly want to use the one I used when becoming a webmaster? I have tried to go to www.adultbouncer.org - but the page is always unavailable?

Question for any European webmasters - is it a major hassle getting paid in US$. I'm afraid my bank here in Spain will clobber me with conversion commissions and will take a month of Sundays to release the funds.....assuming I earn any!

Anyway, I hope I haven't rambled on too much. I hope to be a useful member of this community, like I have been on other non-related messgae boards. Thanks in advance for any advice or suggestions.

Kind regards,

Hi there yourself e-Fitz!

Adultbouncer.org is no more...or being reconstructed...or on the backburner (not sure which) for now with all the new stuff going on here at AB! I suggest using your ISPs email, less chance of being blocked or banned by TGPs/MGPs.

Or if you have a domain name we can direct your MX record to anywhere you like.

Thanks for the replies. So that's one question answered. I have applied for an adultbouncer host account in the meantime. I am also trying to learn a bit of simple HTML. Am I right in thinking that my MGP page only has to be a basic single page that I need to submit to as many sites as possible? I also understand that I will need to change the 3 selected clips regularly?

Cheers,

Hi e-Fitz!!
I am not sure where you've mailed for adultboncerHOST account. However, I've mailed your account information (for host account).

Hi Indra,

I sent my request by ticket as per the instructions on the Webmaster help page. I got several e-mails back confirming the required information, so one way or another it worked out fine. Thanks for that and your instant help on chat the other day! 8)

Kind regards,
