New Airport Detail Pages Design Released

Hi everyone,

I haven't written in forever but I have been hard at work. Today, I released a redesigned template for Airport Guide and a completely redesigned page layout for the detailed airport pages. Go ahead and search for an airport and tell me what you think. FYI, I am making tweaks to the page daily so don't be alarmed when you see it change from one day to the next.

Airplane Blog Added to Airport Guide

Hi everyone,

Over the years I have received a ton of emails with really great airplane photos, videos, jokes, you name it. I'm sure most of you have received them too. Well, I have decided to start posting those emails in this Airplane Blog. I'm sure you will enjoy browsing this section of AirportGuide.com.

Travel Blog Added to Airport Guide

Hi everyone,

I just wanted you to all know that I have added a Travel Blog to AirportGuide.com.

If AirportGuide.com is going to be a great travel resource, then I feel it is time to start a travel blog. In this travel blog, we will not just talk about airplanes and airports but all travel. This includes rail travel, road trips, cruises, ferries, etc., etc.

To make this work, I am calling on all of you, to submit your original articles for incorporation into this blog. This means that these articles can't be found on other web sites as we don't want to be penalized for duplicate search content. And YES, you can include a link back to your site in the article, provided it is to a travel-related web site. The only requirement I have is that the articles be written in proper English.

I know some of you are asking what's the catch. Well, as with everything on AirportGuide.com, there is no catch except that I have the final say on what does and does not make it. I want a travel blog with a variety of unique articles and you probably want links back to your sites. It's a win-win for everyone.

Please send your submissions to articles@airportguide.com

AirportGuide.com Latest Updates

The redesign that I have been working on since the last update in August has been focused mainly on fixing little bugs I have run across over the last year. I still haven't tackled the redesign of the detailed airport information page but that is definitely the next major update. That page is so complex and affects so many other areas of the site that I have to take the time to do it right or get it as close to perfect as I can get the first time through.

The one major enhancement I have made though has to do with updating fuel prices. On any detailed airport page you can scroll down to the FBO and fuel information. There you will see a bright green button to update any fuel prices. The process is now efficient, easy, and fast.

Let me ask a question of you. Is there anything you really like or dislike on the site right now? How is the navigation? Is it easy / difficult? Anything you feel should be on the site that you don't see now? Is there too much information or not enough?
Please tell me so I can take these ideas into consideration as I keep enhancing it.

Mike
