OK, We are in the infant stages of two web sites, one is www.AldabraTortoises.com. Please feel free to comment, recommend, and/or make any suggestions that you feel would make this site better and more informative. The Galop info will all be changed to focus on aldabra info and an aldabra hatchling care sheet is in the works. All input and feed back is welcome!

Looks like a good start. Are you making it yourself?

The link to the "Contact Us" page is broke.

I also think that you should remove the dollar amounts ($100, $20) from the Breeders/Sell Your Tortoises/Advertise With Us page. I think it would be better to just have the "For information on joining our website, please email us..." at the bottom and whoever is interested can contact you to go over details. I also think you should remove/reduce the redundant links (Breeders/Sell Your Tortoises/Advertise With Us).

:cool: Looking good. However:D. The three sections listed below all have the same paragraph in it's section: ?

Breeders
Sell Your Tortoises
Advertise with us

I would like to see more on captive care and breeding. Personal experience/knowledge. You can't find any info on that. I understand you have a hatchling care sheet in the works, that will be very helpful. I would also like to see a care sheet for after hatchling size. That is almost impossible to find on any tortoise species.

I also think you should put more pics of all the different stages. Hatchling, yearling, maybe 5 years then adults:D

The contact us link was broken for me as well. Sell Your Tortoises ,Advertise with us and breeders links, at this point all seem kind of redundant. All the info on the home page is awesome, but maybe shouldn't be on the homepage. Maybe more eye candy on the home page to get people's attention. Otherwise it's looking good.

No I have a partner in this who is doing all of the computer programming.

All good stuff, most of this we are planning to do.

Good stuff, more of a information site with one contact directly to me is my plan. This is our first draft and some of this stuff will be deleted and more appropriate will be added.

Great site. The three sections do have the same info as stated above by wellington. Another...under Galapagos for sale, you stated the aldab was on the right and Galaps on the left but I think it's the other way around, lmk if I'm mistaken :D everything else seems good..gluck! Awesome to have your own website and share with others who are passionate about aldabs.

It's looking really good! The only thing I noticed was the way the banner picture is stretched out making them look like REALLY big pancake tortoises. Is that intentional?

Looks very nice. Is it in wordpress?

Actually, We have no further association with that site. Our picturers are being used and that is it.
