First off, Frank and I would like to thank all of those who participated in our giveaway and helped LFAD. You can find the giveaway details here. Pretty much, members who live outside the USA saw some improvement depending on which country they live in. We hope to continue to see improvement over the next couple months.

Congratulations to our winners! I drew them randomly using Random.org.

I received an email from Andrew, a US Navy Sailor. I liked it a lot and asked if I could share it with all of you.

This month Google changed their algorithm. Their algorithm is what controls what sites show up for a keyword search. This change was meant to clean out the "content farm" type websites that showed up in Google's results, but the change also negatively affected many sites that were not content farms, including Loving From A Distance. If you are curious there is more information here in this CNN article. LFAD used to rank around #3 for the keyword "long distance relationships" in Google in t...

To celebrate our new and much improved LFAD member area, Frank and I decided before we opened it to the public that we would have a giveaway for members that signed up by February 28th. In about 1 month's time 513 members have joined the new site. I hope that there will be many more members in our future!

I used random.org to choose the winners for this giveaway.

Hey guys, so I have been wondering for a long time how to promote LFAD to college students. Frank and I had a college LDR, and I know for the most part, college students are in LDRs more than any other group of people. Our site didn't exist while we were both attending school. I know that it would have been a real help back then for us. So I want to let other college students know about our site so they know that they aren't alone in this!

You can help spread the word! ...

Welcome to the new Member's Area of LovingFromADistance.com!

There are a lot of features on this part of the website.

Michelle and I worked hard to get this going, and there will be more changes to come.

Thanks for joining, and your continuing support!

Frank (and Michelle)
