New Section of Website

I have had a considerable amount of interest in our 'work from home' comments that we put on the website. I don't want to distract from the nature of Atkins For Seizures - but to help answer the questions I've been getting I've set up a new thread of pages on the site.

You won't find these in the menu - as the primary focus of the site is helping epileptic families, however, when I do mention Our Story - I've linked to the the added information. I hope this information further helps families.

The new webpages are titled:

As always - comments are welcome!

Adsense Income

Have you heard about Google's adsense program? It is a great concept for both website administrators and advertisers. I'm sure you've noticed the 'ads from google' on the internet everywhere (I have them just to the right here & also my site Atkins for Seizures).

Here is how it works: Google places paid ads on my site. The google spiders actually read my website, figure out which ads would be similar in content, and places the ads on the page. The result is increased content for the visitor, exposure for the advertiser, and income for the website everytime someone clicks on an ad!

If you have a website - you should consider getting an adsense account. Visit here to learn more.

The reports that google provides gives you information such as: number of impressions, number of clicks, and how much they pay for the click. For example, I can see at a glance that over the past 90 days, I've averaged 51 cents per click on the adsense 'google ads'. The fact that people click on them is proof that the google technology of providing relevant ads really works.

Back to Work

Wow. What a busy summer. We just got back from our one year anniversary visit to Johns Hopkins and Dr. Kossoff. It appears we will be staying on the diet for at least one more year.

The website is getting regular traffic. It is amazing how this has come together! There will be more publicity soon as Dr. K is giving a presentation in DC about the findings of the study & possibly there will be an article shortly thereafter publishing the results of the study.

So it is time to get to work! I need to polish up the site - work out a few bugs - and add some new content. Anything you would like to see? Let me know...

I am behind in my ebook - but hope to get back to it in the next 30 days.
