About the Mouth Ulcers Home Page

This web site is a public knowledge base for prevention, treatment and causes of mouth ulcers and associated ailments. I hope information contained herein is of benefit to new, young and long-term sufferers alike.

Suggestions for improving the site are welcomed, as are links from other web-sites and any assistance in making the site more visible.

I am not a doctor, and am not employed by pharmacuetical organisations, the views expressed on the message board are of those submitting the messages - the only moderation exercised is the occasional correction of particularly bad speeling and removal of profane, commercial or off-topic messages.

The site is for the common good, I hope it is of help.    Dom Walton.

History

1999 - The Mouth Ulcers Home Page was originally set up. Shortly afterwards the domain mouthulcers.co.uk was purchased (the .org and .com were already taken by spammers with irrelevant sites that spawned endless pop-ups for mobile phone deals and on-line casinos.

May 2001 - Message board was introduced, which is now the most informative part of the site.

Spring 2002 - the site physically moved on to an Apache server, and FileMaker server within my own premises, such that when something gets broken the repair time is a lot shorter (or should be!).

September 2002 - Introduction of on-line causes and treatments surveys, and purchase of the .org domain which eventually became available.

October 2002 - at last we can now be found on Yahoo!

July 2003 - Average daily new-hits now exceeds 400

March 2004 - Launch of the Mouth Ulcers Shop

May 2005 - Average daily new-hits now exceeds 700

February 2006 - Average daily new-hits now exceeds 2000

January 2008 - Complete re-write of the entire site to make it faster and more informative.
