    I speak to Kevin and Bond via e-mail sometimes.

    Considering that there doing everyone a gigantic service by keeping TheGaryHalbertLetter.com alive I'm not going to bitch about how it looks.

    When there was talks that it may have been terminated, I'm just thankful Kevin and Bond are gracious to keep it going.

    Take care,

      I recommend the "Return to the Classic Gary Halbert Letters" link at the top, which returns you to the old layout.

      Why would they want to pull that site down?

        Keeping any site going does take some work and, seeing as this is the Gary halber site, I would imagine it takes up quite a bit of bandwidth, as well.

        Not all kids value their father's work as these guys seem to.

        Bond is heavily into Stock Trading info products. And Kevin is working with copywriter Scott Haines on a few ventures.

        Those business's take up huge amounts of time. But with help from John Carlton and Joe Polish the site is kept reved up with great tricks and tactics and Bond has some letters from Gary that were never published.

        So, we should be seeing those coming up.

        All the best,

    Bill I agree. It's not how it looks that counts. The
    information on that site is priceless and I for one
    will not be bothered by a little html gone wrong.

      Exactly. The information is priceless. The copywriting and marketing info on that website is worth 6 figures to someone easily.

      Best,

        Hi,

        I don't think Johnson's wrong... good web design helps to
        express the content within. We know Gary Halbert has
        got great marketing and copywriting information but if a
        design like that makes it hard for people to get his content,
        I don't know but wouldn't he be "not happy"?

        The new design is making the site rather un-user friendly.

        My 2 cents though.

          Hey Asher,

          Yes, I agree Johnson is not wrong. Everyone is entitled to there opinion and his is valid.

          I just know that if Gary had sent me some copywriting secrets on a piece of napkin I would of studied them from beginning to end. So, the vehicle of the information doesn't concern me.

          It's that the information is there and it is priceless.

          Take care,

    I'm actually glad this post is here as it's just reminded me to go through Gary's site again.

    I think I'll spend a day just going through everything that's on there.

    I think you've confused one of the greatest copywriters to ever walk this Earth with a graphic designer.

    Gary Halbert was a legend. Admittedly the design is crap but its the content that people want.
