Our new homepage is now live: https://psoriasisclub.com
![[Image: SBKDiFi.png]](https://i.imgur.com/SBKDiFi.png)
The idea behind it is two fold.
#1 We needed to make a responsive page as Google were dropping us from their search results. Unfortunately there isn't a good way of making the forum phone friendly, and although we've never had the need for a homepage before it's the only thing we can do to try and please Google.
No doubt they will move the goalposts again like they usually do as we will never pay to rank higher in searches, but we keep fighting back.
#2 The new homepage gives the basics about psoriasis and what we do, our hope is that it will encourage our readers to come and have a look at our forum. Once they are reading through the 150,000+ posts they will see that we are just people with psoriasis and it may encourage them to come and join us.
I hope you like the new homepage, it's probably not of mush use to most of you as the point of Psoriasis Club is a forum. But we're not known for giving up when a new challenge pops up. Thank you to those members that helped shape and test the new homepage I appreciate it.
The next step is for me to keep telling Google we are conforming (allbeit not possible with the forum) and they are not only punishing us, but also genuine people with psoriasis looking for honest reliable news, information and support.
On the part of our members you can also help by promoting https://psoriasisclub.com on your social media outlets. *Please do not go spamming though
I have put it on Twitter and Pinterest and noticed already some of you have reposted it (thank you) but I don't use social media much so it's over to you.
To our lurkers of the forum if you feel we have helped you please feel free to give us mention somewhere, or better still come on in and join us.
*The forum is still at it's address https://psoriasisclub.org where it has been since we started so you won't have to change your bookmarks or log-in details.
Hope you like it and feedback is welcome.
Fred.
