    A lot less intimidating.......

    Darryl,
    I've got good news and bad news. The good news first. Thats a great site! The bad news is that its NEVER going to be finished....come to think of it, thats probably good news too.

    Its a lot less intimidating than Ophthalmic Optics! :bbg: Its also neat when you click on forums, to be brought right back to Optiboard. I even registered.

    Congratulations and good luck with it!

    Wave Optical Website Listing ...............................

    I just finished the list of all optical websites I have come accross, and have listed them in order of success of traffic (visitors) going to them. (Alexa rating)

    I have also marked the Google PR rating for each one.

    The interesting part is that some excellent sites, which have a Google rating higher than 4/10 (quality), are not doing so well traffic wise.

    If anybody knows of any not listed optical websites please let me know and I will add them.

    You can go to the listing directly at:

    Can you please list the search engine companies that you get newsletters from? I'll be sitting on an airplane soon and will have time to read some of their articles. I am currently working on the developement of a site and need all the little tips I can get .. :D thank you

    I had years when I paid a small fortune to many optical magazines for very little response. Today I have better ratings than they have on their web formats. Visionmonday has an Alexa rating today of 722,567, which means there are just about 10x more people going on the Optiboard than on their news site.

    My website was stagnant for a few years because paid webmaster's are either lazy or not paid anough. My site was not updated freequently enough and if that is not done the web crawlers make you loose your listings on the search engines and poeple dont find you and you loose your traffic or don't get any. All the websites with an Alexa rating over 1,000,000 get very poor traffic and spend their money for nothing and say that the internet does not work.

    I am subscribing to many of those free newsletter sent out weekly by all the search engine companies and they all contain very good articles how to make a website successfull and give all the technical advice.

    It all boils down to either buy their services or invest your own time but by applying their ideas you can actually do it on your own. I am doing it and it takes time, I just work 3 to 4 hours daily on my site and it has started to pay off as I am getting some good traffic.

    Hi Chris,
    For example, if the website have a rate value 3,237,882 in the column ALEXA traffic rating . What is the meaning?? Is that the smaller the value, the better ranking of the site?

    Yjay's right Lawrence....................the smaller the number the more traffic you are reaching. Go on Yahoo which has a rating of 1. Down load the Alexa toolbar then click on the rating number and you can read all aboutm how it is done.

    Optiboard has had a tremendous improvement in ranking. It is updated manually every day by new posts.

    It does not matter if you have a new site...............you have to get it out into the web. You are now using an automatic hit counter which I just advanced by 7 figures...............will count every time you refresh. You have to to update manually every day to get results.
