• History of Our Home Page

1999 to 2000

The John H. Gohde, Natural Health Advocate web site was a tiny site of about a dozen web pages which consisted basically of just the core web pages of our present health program (namely Diet, Nutritional Supplements, Exercise, Attitude, Resilience [which originally was referenced as meditation], Detoxification, Diseases of Civilization which included the Modifiable Risk Factors, and Longevity. The prior existence of this now defunct web site is documented by literally thousands of newsgroup posts (Sample post) which ended with a signature, similar to the following.

John H. Gohde,
Natural Health Advocate of the Healing Power of Nature

Get your health questions answered from the Natural Health Perspective at: [the now defunct] http://home.att.net/~johngohde/

This defunct John H. Gohde, Natural Health Advocate web site centered around me, personally, "the Natural Health Advocate of pro-active approaches to preventing 'Diseases of Civilization,' promoting Optimum Health, and Longevity."

3-Sep-2000 to 17-Aug-2006

The current Natural Health Perspective web site centers around an accredited health program, which is entirely independent of the personal me which dominated our above prior web site.

The Alexa Traffic Rank score web page for our web site independently documents that the current Natural Health Perspective web site started operation on 03-Sep-2000.

Our domain name was registered or purchased from a web site hosting company. But, initially our site was hosted on the webmasters's ISP. Later it was moved to a couple different free web site hosting services. Eventually, it ended up being hosted by the same site where our domain name was purchased from in order to avoid pop up advertisements.

Unfortunately our webmaster chose the wrong hosting service. Our original web site was hosted on a web server that utilized redirection, in order to create our domain name. Thus, our site was plagued with a whole host of problems related to redirection for about four years. Our web site was more or less operating, so our webmaster simply elected to stick it out. But, eventually it became apparent that redirection was seriously holding back the growth of our site.

18-Aug-2006 to the Present

The move to our present Linux server, was a bit of a nightmare. But, the move lasted about only one week. And, our site is now a professional first class operation.

Our present server does NOT utilize redirection. We actually ended up cutting our operating cost in half, while getting a lot more value for our money.

Currently, our webmaster is working on cleaning up the organization and HTML coding of the web site, as well as improving our placement in the various search engines on our major keywords.
