New Amiga Site - Retro Game and Computer

[sdyates]

I just relaunched Retro Game and Computer. It has been offline for over 8 months. FOr those of you not familiar with the site, it has a ton of Amiga content including peripheral coverage, games, computers and history.

I aso added coverage of other consoles and computers we grew up with.

Sorry for being offline for so long, but I could not afford the hosting costs. Too many have ad blockers which cover the costs. If you like, feel free to donate a few cents once in a while!

Thanks,
S

Thanks guys. It looks like I found the issue. I was using the analytics code from my bass fishing site for the retro site. Made things a little confusing.

Could I please get just a few more hits to make sure I got it right.

Also, please let me know if I am missing any content or have anything wrong. I want this to be a great site that we can come to when we need information about the past

hum, the picture for Banshee CD32 is wrong !
manchester united is also looking like sensible soccer but I could be wrong because picture is small.
ProjectX SE is also wrong.


Nice site BTW, lots of description ! good luck in maintaining all these informations.

Yes, it does take some work. You are welcome to help if you like What can you tell me about ProjectX SE to get me on track. I will work on fixing the games now.

I was off air for 8 months because the hosting costs were too high. I found a better site so it is more manageable now.

Both images have been fixed. I think the script I used buggered up a few places... as a result of my coding I am sure

I also added search to the home menu so you guys can find things easier. Its google based so it is good.

Thanks again for your help.

way way to many adds

way way to many adds

I did not see any donations from you. If you would like to make a donation along with a few others then I can remove the google ads. Or, would you be willing of hosting the site for free?

I am giving back to the Amiga community without asking for anything in return. I am offering free content. I do not collect personal information or require an account. RetroGameAndComputer.co was down for 8 months because I could not afford the hosting fees but I am back now.

To all... Is it unfair to use ads to cover my hosting fees? What would you do?

I would cover the hosting fees with my own money at least until the site attracted enough visitors for it to become a problem. I'm not sure what kind of traffic you're getting or what kind of money you're paying, but I have a site at an "unlimited bandwidth" web host where I pay less than $3 a month.

Well, I am on a cheaper plan now, but I have three sites. So as I mentioned to the other guy, the ads are there to make this endeavour cost neutral. I just hate people that that only comment is on the ads and nothing to do with the site. I don't see them doing anything but complaining.

I appreciate all the good comments I have received especially those that provided constructive feedback.

I am not going to use your site, the adds are way to disturbing, they take focus from the content.
IMHO it is not good design.

I don't see any ads, incidentally. Do you need cookies turned on to see them?
