FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q: What is the purpose of MyBestYears.com?
A: The purpose is clearly stated in our banner on each page
...older, wiser, healthier, better!!!
Q: How did MyBestYears.com happen?
A: For starters, it didn't just happen. It came about after the people involved in MBY surfed the
web for several years, wondering why no one offered a USA Today (to use a newspaper
analogy) or magazine-type show (television) approach to a senior site. The next step came when
the same people started asking, "What if...?"
Q: Who are the people in your target audience?
A: Over-fifty, and our goal is to be absolutely vital for every men and women in the world in this
age range. And we want them to visit MyBestYears.com 50 times a day! (Okay, that might be a
tad over-zealous, but you get the point!).
Actually...
Q: How can we get to know more about the eColumnists?
A: We will feature stories about them from time to time, at least the ones who don't mind stepping
into the eSpotlight.
Some, especially those who travel a lot, won't stand still long enough to be featured on anything
except a milk carton.
Others are more like Sterling Graham, who says he's already had all attention he wants when he
was younger, and now he just wants to grow old with his beautiful wife (who has already told him
that he'd better not mention her name on "that danged ole website" or else he'll be sleeping in
the bunkhouse!), his dog Prometheus, and his coffee-drinking buddies, Tom and Rafe. We figure
it would be easier to ride one of those mechanical bulls at Gilley's than it would be to get Sterling
(Tom and Rafe, too!) in front of a camera. Prometheus, on the other hand will appear from time
to time on BestFriends and other places throughout MyBestYears.
Q: What if I want to contact any of the eColumnists, or if I want to give suggestions for future
features to them?
A: MyBestYears.com is visitor-driven. Your suggestions and feedback are invaluable to us.
That's why we've made it easy to access an online feedback form from every page of the
website. Because of the volume, we cannot guarantee a personal reply, but we do read every
email.
And don't be in a hurry if you write Sterling; we still haven't talked him into becoming a Net surfer,
and it's not likely he will give up his trusty, well-oiled 1926 Royal typewriter anytime soon.
Q: Not long ago, the Powells' photo was used on the FrontPage of the Seasoned Romance
eColumn. Now they have started using a drawing. Why?
A: Jeoffrey's quip: The drawing is me when I still had a full head of hair...what better reason than
that?
Actually, the Powells are amazed that anyone even mentioned it. They have worked a lifetime
internationally as researchers and writers, exclusively behind the scenes and in relative
obscurity. Adds Jeoffrey, "On purpose!"
Suddenly, after MyBestYears.com talked them into using their photo on the original eColumns,
people started recognizing them in airports and other places, both in North America and Europe.
"That might be fine for some people who like the attention and thrive on it," says Renée, "but
Jeoffrey and I are pretty private people. We've spent our lifetime together out of the spotlight,
and we prefer it. We apologize if that upsets some MyBestYears.com visitors, but we promise to
work hard to bring you such good information and research about romance that it won't matter
whether we use a photo or drawing."
"Besides," adds Jeoffrey with a wink, "the drawings don't have wrinkles. We can look 55 forever!"
Q: What are the main complaints you receive concerning your website? What are the primary
compliments?
A: Main complaint: Too much variety. Primary compliment: So much variety. Go figure!
Q: What do you hope to add in MyBestYears.com's future?
A: More variety. More colorful features. Everything in our power to continue making
MyBestYears.com one of the internet's most popular over-fifty websites.
