Best way to organize your website?

What's the best way to organize your website? I've been told mine is confusing because there is just so much there?

Karen, not that my site is the best organized but take a look at my site
"jtcapturethemoment.com."

I narrowed the categories down to 6 and further added more subs below each. Maybe for you, you could do categories like: photo shoots or professional, then a nature/landscape category, a people or family/friends category and so forth. Just an idea, great work though!

There are a lot of galleries there...I'd separate your business and personal stuff. I didn't open any of your galleries, but surely some of them are personal? If not, you are sharing way too many biz galleries. A small sampling is all clients really need. Unless you are trying to sell stock photos... I'm talking in circles, huh.

A drop-down navbar may also help.

Thanks!!! I need to redo them, you guys are right. How do I separate business and personal stuff? I don't have any subcategories at all.

I wonder if there is an easy way to move galleries and categories instead of individually?

Yup there is. Get Firefox (free from www.mozilla.com) and then use SmugBrowser, the awesome free FF addon.

I have downloaded it, etc. and I cannot figure out how to move the galleries around within it?

You can rigth click on a gallery and pick properties. There you can
change the category and sub-category. It's a lot quicker then going to
each gallery under "gallery tools" > "customize gallery" on your site.
