DavidDavidDavid:
Thanks again for your reply. I've been adding content on my prospective site for the last week - I'm rather impressed with myself.
The main aim for my site is to help other people looking for information on working and holidaying in the UK. If my site can make a profit whilst doing that then I would claim it as a success. Luckily for me as the startup costs are quite small the site would not have to generate much income to become 'successful'.
Also been thinking about one of SBIs biggest claims in which the say that 62% of users have sites ranked in the top 3% of all sites (i.e., higher than 97% of all sites on the Web)

I'm not sure I understand this correctly, because as I would have it that means that if a search engine returns a result of 157,000+ finds, that my site would be in the top 4,700 of sites - which is pretty irrelevant really. I would want my site to be in the top 10... Have I made a mistake somewhere?
Another thing, I dont think I understand how Alexa works or what the result means? Could you clarify that for me?
Thanks again
