I found out that most people search right from the address bar in IE.. However, not most poeple on this board because they use the computer a lot and undersand who google, yahoo and the other search engines are. but regular Joe Shmoes use the address bar. this is where (IMO) you need to make sure you are seen. I also think (IMO) you need to come up with just 928, Porsche or porsche 928. this is just IMO, just passing on what i have learned over the last few years.

Actually the site needs to be rewritten, as the base html is dated, the code is somewhat embarrasing, but there is only so much time in the day....

Thanks for the the thoughts. I do read quite a bit about search engine optimization, as it is one of the services I offer while doing website development

As a side note, search engines spider sites to update their index. The search engine submission services are of questionable value and can actually be detrimental to a site (per the search engines). Their tools may help you properly develop the site, but I can't comment as I haven't reviewed their tools.

I think I once was Charter with my '85....but a lapse in employment and ownership broke the chain. Back in again though. T-Shirt? Think I got a lit keychain one year and an engraved mini-light the next. No complaints though, have an excess stockpile of shirts from events!
Lessee, 530++ members, at <$30 ea....Hey we oughtta have our own video library of service procedures and some serious entertainment at the next events! Just kidding, OC is does a great job of supporting the many large and small costs of a somewhat amorphous aggregation of enthusiasts.

Between the direct benefits (shirts, license plate frames, key chains, duffle bags) and the dozen or so events we sponsor each year, ALL the money gets spent. Spending the money on direct benefits to the members is a focal point of mine that Gary (our treasurer) thinks I am very good at

Often not sure of my name either. Yeah, I know I've been a member for each of the OCICs, membership was required for all the Wichita attendees each time. I'm current on my dues this year and I was sent the lighted keychain. No complaints, I'd just love to have a tee shirt to wear to events.
