 What’s Up On Hotrodhotline.com Today .....

 

 

  We want to say a big THANK YOU to the more than 3000 visitors who took our survey this past week...  we had so many very nice comments and they are greatly appreciated by all of us here at Hotrodhotline.com.  We also had some suggestions and we have already implemented some of them and we’re working on some others. One of the most often mentioned suggestions was to have the car show coverage pictures “enlarge” when clicked on .... we have done that beginning this week and everyone seems to love it.  
   Another suggestion was that, in the classifieds, we make it so that the “State” shows up before the ad is actually clicked on. We have done that too. ... and we found that some of you didn’t realize that you are able to “SORT” the classified ads ... If you click on the “header” of the “Year”, State, or “Price” column, the results will sort and put all of the results in order.   We also heard from people who wanted the thumbnails on the classifieds to be a bit smaller to speed up the download time so we reduced the size by 15% and we’ll see how it works for you. 
   There are some other things that we are going to try out and we’ll keep you posted. We ALWAYS want to hear from you so if you have a comment, or suggestion please email us. You can send to Maryann@hotrodhotline.com  you don’t have to wait for a survey ... we want to hear your suggestions all year long.  

   The classifieds here are “HOPPING” .... many many new listings and lots of sales too. We offer you the best exposure on the web for your car AND we offer you help every step of the way. Our staff is here from 8-5 Mt. Time Monday - Friday and we’re happy to help. Call us Toll Free at 877-700-2468 .  
   We’ll be on the road soon ... Back to the Fifties in June will be our first show this year... It’s a great one and we look forward to seeing your there....
