Good to all Friends Diver!
I am creating a website: http://divezone.net/ . The purpose of the site is to provide divers with useful and reliable information on diving destinations around the world.
Indeed, I have had too many times unpleasant surprises on the quality of the dives in certain places and I therefore decided to create divezone.net to share this useful information to prepare a diving trip.
I would therefore like to have your opinion on the site. Do you like the design? Navigation? Would you like to find more information?
If any of you know a dive destination well they can write a review and I would be happy to post it with their name and a link to their blog or website.
Similarly if you have beautiful underwater photos, I would be happy to post them on the site with of course your copyright.
If you have a blog or website, please put a link to divezone.net to help me make it known ;-).
Thank you all for your help! I await your feedback in the comments!
Happy Bubbles and Happy Day!
Julien

Nicolas if you want to know a little more go to Plongeur.com where I had discussions about the Protée, it will have fun ...
Pani problem: for good use,
Good luck and congratulations for this initiative and this work of ant. Sylvie
Thank you Sylvie for your help. Can you give me the address of your blog?
PS Can I put a link to your site?
Hello Julien
Take the time to look in detail at your site.
Congratulations for the start: friendly visual, easy navigation and lots of interesting information, complete and provided on the destinations presented. A good plan for the divers we are!
But hurry quickly to put the version in French because I think you will have even more returns and contacts.
I think that if you want your site to be viable it is imperative that the information comes from the divers themselves and that in no case does it become an advertisement for a diving center on a specific destination ... but I believe that it is is what you want.
A few more ideas: the + and the - for each destination (plane, reception, etc.), a good plan (accommodation, a diving center, a nice little corner to eat….)
The maps of the sites as mentioned that is also a very good idea.
Good luck for the work to come.
@ Sylvie: I really like your blog! Very beautiful pictures! You write a lot, tell me! And yes you can put a link to divezone.net with great pleasure!
“I think that if you want your site to be viable it is imperative that the information comes from the divers themselves and that in no case does it become an advertisement for a dive center on a specific destination… but I believe that it is 'is what you want. ” => Yes absolutely I am entirely of your opinion! But how do you motivate divers to write for divezone.net ?! Not easy!
Yes very good idea the + and the - I will think about how to add that!
Good evening Julien, I immersed myself a little more in your site, which I had flown over the first time and like Isabelle, the French version, of course, would reach a wider audience. There are words that escape me for example, “choppy”, “drift” which can be important. Likewise, the “good tips” for divers are always to be taken, centers, accommodation, catering. Perhaps you can offer divers who consult the site a feedback, an article, a testimonial, photos or practical information, in a community mode, each one being able to participate in his own way? Nothing to say about the navigation and the layout. Good luck.
Thanks for the blog.

How to motivate divers to write for your site? …. Maybe it will be easier when it is in French… easier for some to master writing in French than in English.
The site will be enriched little by little and Sylvie's proposal on the participation of divers consulting the site is one more idea.
So there is plenty to do…. go good web bubbles
Thank you all for your help! I recontact you when the site is in French ;-). I am going to think about how to integrate the good plans of the divers, maybe by making an editable text like on Wikipedia!
