I Wish I Could Be Ernest Jones For A Day!

Despite truly heroic efforts, madaboutjewellery.com remains stubbornly on Page 2 for that most important of key words “jewellery”.

A pretty impressive position for a small independent, I know, but sales – and therefore life – was so much better when we were on Page 1!

Jean-Michel Cousteau’s Statement on Captive Orcas & the Trainer Killed at Sea World

This video speaks for itself. This particular killer whale has killed a human twice before, so you would think these people would learn their lesson. The “prisons” they are kept in are outrageously small and hopelessly inadequate for the space needs of such a large creature. If you were locked up in a 10 by 8 cell for 23 hours a day would you perform without question for your jailers pleasure and profit? The main problem is that animals cannot speak so we assume everything is ok. Until something like this happens. And then we’re surprised and usually blame and label the animal. Anyway, I get too emotional about these things so I’ll let Jean-Michel Cousteau say it.

The Google Idiot-Bot

Our site has been established since 2001. We have been on the first page of google’s search results for our main keyword since I can’t remember! Years. Over those years we have been growing steadily. We complied with the “Which Webtrader Code of Practice” which shows our age and provides an indication as to our trustworthyness. We have hundreds of reciprocal links, but in truth this is an area that has been somewhat neglected due to a massive workload on a skeleton staff caused by rapid growth and the need to survive.
