Our website has got too BIG! |
As we fast approach one and a half million pages we have become a little too big and have decided to move the National Image Library and the Flora and Fauna Database to their own sub-domains to make space for future development.
They are both still a part of the British Towns and Villages Network and the low level pages are still interlinked so that you can easily move from one part of the site to the other but we end up with three websites in place of one.
These are now much easier to maintain and give us a lot more scope for expansion. Hopefully you will not notice the changes other than the fact things are a little quicker. |
