Hola!

Well unfortunately, I’m at work now so I have to keep this short for now!

I'm a 26 year old Independent Hispanic Woman! I was born and raised in Brooklyn NY (1/2 Puerto Rican_Ecuadorian). I have two brothers and a sister (I'm the oldest!).

I've lived in Crown Heights (BKLYN), Inwood (Manhattan), and for the last three years - Middle Village (Queens). No I’m not always on the move!! As a child dependent of my mother, I lived in two places (BKLYN & Manhattan). As a woman, I've lived in only one apt during the last 3 yrs. :) That's right! I pay my own rent/bills/food/TOILET PAPER! Yeah ha ha, sometimes I miss living back home.

I am part of a beautiful Parish Our Lady of Pompeii. I have to say, that's my family. We play, we FIGHT! But in the end, all we have is each other. All of my best memories started there. Pompeii- I love you all dearly! I pray our love never ends!

Brother Sal/Brother Vincent: Should you ever come across my page, we love you!

Anyway, I must wrap this up now because I'm actually at work.  L

Oh , are you wondering why am I here? Well Shawn (one of my best friend) just asked me to check out his page and of course, in order to comment I had to join!  ((See Shawn! I love uuuuu.))

Everyone - Have a great July 4th weekend!

Listing Site Updates

Under one of these subheadings, it's a good idea to list recent updates to my site so that visitors, especially return visitors, can check out the new stuff first. For example, I could list the date and a brief description of the update.

I could also list updated news about my site's topic. For example, if my site were about a particular sport, I'd could discuss the outcome of a recent competition.

Notifying Visitors of Site Enhancements

Another idea for my home page's text is notifying visitors about the enhancements I put on my site. For example, I want visitors to sign my guestbook or fill out my survey Form E-mailer to answer questions about my site, my business, or my site's topic.

Getting Rich Quick--From My Site!

I might not want a large amount of text on my home page if I want to guide visitors toward my other pages. Instead of text, I can add others' buttons to this first page, and I'll be rewarded for people who click on the buttons. For example, if a visitor signs up for a Visa using the NextCard button on my site, I earn at least $20!

Behind the Scenes of My Home Page

Even if I don't put much text on my home page, it's a good idea to include hidden tools that will help me promote my site, so people other than my friends and family actually see it. For example, I could add meta tags, which are hidden codes that allow search engines to find my site. I could also install stats and a counter so I know how many people are visiting. If not many are visiting, submitting my site to search engines will guide more traffic to my site.
