The tragedy for me is that at the end of August I traditionally start to go into my highest traffic highest revenue time of the year. Telling me this could take a month or two to straighten out is like telling a toy store three weeks before Christmas that their power and heat won't be restored for a month.
I've been working on my site for almost eleven years and right now I'm seeing traffic levels lower than I saw in 1996/1997.
What I need right now is lots of word of mouth "advertising". If people have kids in school studying science or know science teachers/professors (especially chemistry) please make sure they know about my site, its periodic table of elements and all the resources it provides.
At least through word of mouth via classrooms could help improve traffic and build more links to my site. If I'm going to get through this, I need all the help I can get from anyone willing to give it even if it is something really small.
Nobody is bringing as much information together in the way I'm bringing it together on the web. Yes there are hundreds of periodic tables on the web, but mine has one of the most extensive collections of data points of any table and it is one of the easiest to use. Heck my site is so vast that according to Google it has collected over 13,000 references to it from the various languages of Wikipedia (
