<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 1956821, member: 19463"]This is a problem I have with regularity on the web. Someone will ask a question that I know is answered on the web but I am driven to a search engine to find it. If I know that the matter is covered on a page by a certain author, I would prefer to go to their index and follow as few links as possible to get to the page that covers the matter. Sometimes the problem is the number of people posting in Blog format with indices only by date; sometimes it is a separation of educational and commercial pages (for example, your listings of coin catalogs with descriptions and your sales pages for catalogs you have for sale). Right now I am considering reworking the format of my index page in the hope of making it easier to find some specific topic. While considering how to do this, I am sensitive to options of what makes an index useful and what makes it less so. So many of my pages overlap or duplicate each other, it may be time to start taking down the dregs. First I have to decide if the problem in the format of the index or the material being indexed.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
