What's cool is now your post from my support list is the first item in the
google search!

If there is anyone in the IBO community that knows how to groom my web-site
for better search engine rankings please please please coach me. I don't
have time or resources right now to cover all the in's and out's of search
engine mechanics but this is an important part of what will help IBO remain
competitive and viable.

Thanks for looking into this and bringing it to my attention.

Kind regards,
