No Comments yet, your thoughts are welcome

I want to thank visitors here who reported some problems with my website for past 3 days. An error message was generated for some of the viewers which did not provide them with the best viewing experience.

There were some technical upgrades and systems checks being performed at the backend. It was a regular maintenance exercise for increased traffic handling and enhanced experience with improvements in loading time hopefully.

I have done a personal check for this website and things seem to be fine. In case you run into any problem while viewing the website, please send me a mail.

More selection at fotoflock – Burj Khalifa

1 Comment

One more time, an image shot by me of the World’s tallest building, Burj Khaleej aka Burj Dubai has been chosen under the theme of "Buildings and Structures".

The link to image is at fotoflock.com/index.php/photogallery/shooter/4367

The image was shot in January 2009 when the work for completing the building was in full swing. I can still recollect the day when I was roaming in Downtown Burj area, this area was worked upon by many workers and laborers. On that day, the colorful fountains were being fitted getting ready to dance to music tunes on the launch day in January 2010.


www.travelgrove.com services review

No Comments yet, your thoughts are welcome

www.travelgrove.com is a website catering to your travel needs. It is a meta search engine site offering competitive deals on various bookings for hotels, flights, cruise liners, vacation packages and likes. There is an ocean of travel related information and services on offer for your needs. The highlight of the services seem to be concentrated on flights as the homepage is bursting to give you best deals from one city to another.

The economical flight are not limited to US and finds option for you to fly at cheap rates to London as well. The results are displayed in an easy to comprehend tabular manner before making the purchase. The site allows for membership accounts which enable them to participate in community interacting with other travelers. Destination reviews can be found in one of the sections of the website.  The deals section has some well thought out categories for a traveler’s need and quick information.

Apart from the travel related information and good quality search results, the site boasts of good Page Rank and Alexa rank but that seems less important to travelers but helps them stand out when you need to punch in your credit card details. It gives a sense of secure feeling to an individual when doing a truncation on this site.

From a user experience perspective, a new user might feel overwhelmed with a lot of information upfront right on the homepage. The flashy ad might be distracting on times when you are reading on a review or following some article.


Paypal use for transactions

You might have noticed the
new PayPal icon in the right sidebar. This is a ground work for something I have in mind on the commercial lines from this website and blog.

Any service on offer will avail the transaction capabilities of paypal and help in smoother transaction for me. My paypal id is sarthaksinghal at hotmail dot com.

This will be needed in the near future when the services are offered. I also plan to add a direct button with in the blog post which will do all the re-direction in the background and as the same time secured.

Just wait for the services planned in the near future.
