The season is right around the corner and we haven't had a new user join since September of last year. I think part of that has to do with the fact if you type anything along the lines of HSFB Forum into google, this site does not show up, not even several pages in. GSB's board on the other hand is the first result.  I only found this board because of the emails @TheCompPoll sent out last summer, and it seems its the same for everyone else too, as I don't think we've had a member yet that wasn't a PG regular. There's a lot of old users I'd like to get back and I'm not sure we will unless we can find a way to make this site more relevant on search engines. Is another round of emails still possible?

I made some changes to the forum to make it show up on Google. I sent two rounds of emails last year, but didn't want to keep blasting people. I suspect many of the emails were throwaway emails that people used to sign up on PrepGridiron and not their actual emails. If you have any other thoughts, let me know.

I know my initial email was in my junk folder and I found it much later when I went in their to clean it out. But I did get the second one in my Inbox which led me here.
