The other thing you've got is the nice speedy server. Many site owners end up with slow sites and don't realise how much it puts people off. I think you get about five seconds max and if your page hasn't loaded people go somewhere else.

That's why I was getting so angry about our previous hosts, I kept telling them it was "killing" the site, and if I'd left it any longer it would have done. People drift away.
Many very good points.

The change to WireNine seemed to have an impact on the web site. Member registrations/activity rose with the new high speed connections. I used to get very aggravated when I couldn't even access my own web site..
