"The design of the site has consistently received praise from philatelists and friends, and rightly so. I wanted to mention too that our Google ranking...has shot up recently and is now at #4 for 'British Commonwealth Stamps' and #1 for 'British Philatelists' and 'British Commonwealth Philatelists.' That's great news for us, and I look forward to the possibility that the #4 ranking will go even higher in the next few weeks or months."
