   Looks really Good Kieron.

   But there’s a MySQL error appearing under the Offers by Company section

   Thanks Carl, we’re working on that now.

   Nice overhaul Kieron, but why are you not using the ‘pretty’ permalinks?
4. Ash says:

   Me again! You also have two ‘about’ pages showing, one is the default WordPress one.

   oops, what happened to your logo sizing?

   Ash, thanks for that, spare About Us page deleted! What “pretty” permalinks do you mean?

   Dazza, not sure what you mean about logo sizing?

   Hi Kieron, new to here, your blog is great. As Ash said why do you use the default permalinks? If you want SE friendly you should change the permalinks to http://www.ukoffer.com/%postname%/ or others similar to this.

   All sorted now, thanks for your feedback guys.

   No problem Kieron. The permalinks are working for your posts, but not for the categories, did you hardcode the category menu perhaps?

   You may also be interested in an article i wrote recently regarding avoiding duplicate content and supplemental listings when using wordpress.

    Use dashes instead of underscores on the categories URLs. It’s more SEO friendly

    p.s.: *first comment here *

    Rob, true but (a) WordPress doesn’t seem to like dashes and (b) Google are apparently starting to treat underscores the same as dashes. See here: http://news.com.com/8301-10784_3-9748779-7.html

    The logo (uklogo2.png) had a grey background earlier, a transparency issue? It looks ok now.

    Looks really nice. I’m redoing a couple of Joomla sites into WordPress as we speak. I hadn’t seen the rate my post plugin before so I’ll give that a whirl on one of them!

    Just tried signing up for the newsletter and it’s saying my email is invalid? tried a couple of different addresses but no joy, might be worth a look

    OK, as I blatantly nicked the idea for usingthe ratings plugin, thought I’d give a little back.
    At the moment the sidebar is showing the top rated everything so your error and privacy page are showing.

    if you use this syntax you can limit it to posts – i.e. offers, and limit the number of them:

    Hope that helps

    Stephen, thanks for the tip, we’re working on that now.
    With regards to the email form, we’ve tried it with many addresses and they are all working fine. Likewise we are getting new subscribers every hour so not sure whats happening there.

    Kieron,

    You’ve previously said that this site makes you very little money.

    Surely you have bigger fish to fry?

    George – yes, in its old format. Hence a complete redesign/restructure and some new promotional activity to drive traffic. In the past I’ve never really driven much traffic to it.

    I hope it works well for you.

    Btw I’m pleased your blogging more regularly now. Usually a good read!

    G
