As some of you may be aware, DN Lodge is now under new ownership. I would like to thank Luke for his excellent work in the past in terms of bolstering DN Lodge as one of the leading online webmaster resources.

The DNL staff has been busy this month trying to find more positive ways to encourage users to participate in the forums. As of late, the Lodge has seen an influx of traffic, mostly "lurkers". The Staff has always had a strong sentiment that if the environment is as friendly, helpful, and considerate as possible, more individuals will be willing to voice their opinion or ask a question.

This week, the DN Lodge community has grown to over 8,000 members! Since inception in 2005, the Lodge has continued a steady growth. Although there have been some spurts and declines in member registrations during this time, the Lodge still remains to be one of the friendliest webmaster related communities on the internet.

I'd like to take this opportunity to announce our new hosting sponsor, SiteGround.com! As you may or may not remember, SiteGround was the sponsor for our most recent contest and provided hosting prizes for our winners. The marketing staff over at SiteGround has been exceptionally willing to sponsor the community. In fact, SiteGround is sponsoring DN Lodge with a fully managed dedicated server! You will notice the speed and performance on dnlodge.com has greatly improved!

A lot of time was spent last month configuring and perfecting the setup of the DNL Exchange system. Essentially, the Exchange is a 100% Free way to list your domain names, websites, content, templates, or services for sale. There is even an employment section available to both potential employees and employers!

Since the change of ownership back in June, the Lodge has undergone some major changes in regards to design and functionality. Most recently, we have been challenged to incorporate 100% web browser compatibility. To date, we are 100% w3.org verified on many areas of the site and now work with the following web browsers:

The staff at the Lodge has been pondering the idea of incorporating some type of marketplace system which would allow any registered user to create an auction for a website, domain, or content.

I'm pleased to announce that revenue sharing percentages have been adjusted to 100%. This means, if you participate in the DNL Revenue Sharing program with your Adsense ID, you will get 100% of the impressions/clicks from your threads.

After a few days of testing, tweaking, and configurations tested with an Adsense sharing MOD for the forums, we are proud to announce revenue sharing is now available!

Welcome to DNL's 7th contest! This time around we have gained over $2,300 in prizes sponsored by many great websites and companies. Firstly, I would like to invite any guests who are not yet registered to do so by registering an account on the forums! Remember, you must be registered to win!
