Building / having a site for the purpose of just enjoying doing the work, I am NOT the norm in this crowd.

I recently decided to implement an intro or as some call it, a landing page on my site. The reason for doing this was that I have two main sites. One for the vb forums, the other for my ancestry site using the TNG cms. Both under my K4GAP domain. That way I can just direct any potential users/readers to the intro page and they can choose which site they want. Also the intro page is done with pure html and is not very graphically intensive. So it loads really fast.

I've been wondering if it was a good idea to use the intro/landing page so, I've been doing some reading on the pros and cons of such. It seems there are two very diverse opinions on this subject.

What are some of your opinions on this?
