If you (and Milfmog) "really" want to see what I hope to achieve with my "endeavor," just Google "freestyle fashion" and look at your resulting "hits."
Most likely you'll see that the web page in question is among the top hits--second, when I last Googled a minute ago--just as everyone else who make this Google search will see. (If you search with another search engine, such as yahoo or bing, that same web page will also show among the top hits.) So everyone who clicks on that web page will see the outdated and dead links and information about freestyle fashion that should be updated and rewritten.
So what? You want to resurrect a dead site because it turns up well in a search engine
if you use an large part of its name in your search string? Well that makes sense...
In all honesty, how many men who know nothing about wearing a skirt as a guy will even consider searching for "freestyle"? I suspect it will be a tiny fraction of the number that start with a search term containing words such as "men" and "skirt" or searching for variants of “men in skirts”, “skirts for men”, “mens skirts” etc, etc, etc. These do not tend to highlight the "official" site, however Skirt Café typically comes up in the first page or two when searching for these terms. Adding modifiers to exclude crossdressing, transvestite etc changes the results again. To be blunt, I suspect this thread has generated more hits to the “official” site recently than Google has.
So is one dead, (and never very good) site really worth expending any effort on? I think not and will not waste my time on it.
If you really want to promote men in skirts (but are not able to build a great website to do it): get out in the real world, skirted and proud. Be seen and help to promote this site by adding the url to your email signature and all your forum sign offs on every forum you use, irrespective of its special interest. If every site member did that, I suspect we'd see a steady increase in traffic and even though much of it would simply be curiosity traffic, I'd expect some to visit again. That’s something you can do (instead of asking others to do it for you), it will cost you nothing and take very little of your time.
Have fun,
Ian.
