Anyone here who KNOWS HTML and can create websites - OR you have an SC8 website NOW and are willing to add a button of all our other network sites to your site and join up with us here PLEASE contact me.

The domain gensteps.co.uk has been running since 1999 and since then we've had MILLIONS of visitors, probably closing in on billions if I ever bothered to track the statistics properly.

The sad loss of Amie means we have an opening in the SC8 department. I know there are some EXCELLENT SC8 sites out there at this moment, if you want to join up with me I'll take you on.

Note if you do have your own site you DO NOT have to move to this domain, you DO NOT have to rename your site, you even DO NOT have to use these forums, all you would have to do is give our other network sites a good placement on your site, either on the front page before any affliates and on your links page above the other links.

Your site could gain from added exposure (Our SC8 site was gaining many thousands of hits per week - which you could benifit from) and you could get ME adding videos to YOUR site or forums for even more added exposure and more visitors.

Interested? Then drop me a message via PM or here ... if you are not interested then fair enough :P

Update1:
We've had a few people interested, I've posted a few pointers below, but here they are in the main post!

Okay a few pointers

1. You can name the site whatever you want! Doesn't have to be the name of our old SC8 site

2. Can ALL interested parties please submit their designs by THIS WEDNESDAY - 10th December - If this is too short a notice please contact me via PM - I don't want people hanging around and would like a replacement ASAP! :)

3. The site must be updated on a regular basis. I'm not looking for daily updates, but try to update on a weekly basis (unless news is really slow!)

4. If you want I'll add videos :)

Wow, I'm amazed by the response this has generated. A few people have contacted me about this.

What I suggest to you both and anyone else who is interested. If you can give me a rough design on how it will look and post that to me then I can make a suggestion easily! :)

Don't spend weeks and weeks planning a rough idea will be find so I can see what sort of layout you are using. As I said to the other sites, we have plently of disk-space, bandwidth might be an issue but its being monitored and if we have to buy more we will do :)

Thanks :D

Okay we have a few people offering, I've extended a deadline for one member until this weekend as they are away on holiday at this moment. I've seen the other sites. I'm not just going along here with design I'll add. If you have a hi-tech site and no content, then people aren't going to visit are they?
One template I visited, the owners had HQ pictures, now thats something that would draw the visitors back to a site. Content is just as important as the looks, as the looks can be changed, content might be hard to get hold of for some people, others can get it easily.
I need an entire package site, not just something that looks good but lacks content, or looks totally rubbish and has tons of content!

A decision will be finalised as soon as this evening (Thursday) and hopefully an annoucement will be made on Friday meaning that depending on how far the new site owners are along with their design the site MIGHT be up sooner than we all would have thought :)
