Hey i've just made this website for open source torrents only (so legal): here (http://www.opensourcenova.com). What are people's thoughts? I know there aren't many torrents yet, I am in the process of adding more and it is possible for users to add their own.
Thanks

your site gives error.
Not Found
The requested URL /cgi-bin/php.cgi/index.php was not found on this server.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

You need to fix your site as your index is missing

Nice, loads fast and clean simple design. I'd prefer the logo the same width as the body for a sleeker look :)

Looks very nice... But still with little content.

Thanks for the comments, I've tweaked the design a little now. Apart from having the site in my sig here and submitting torrents to other sites with a link to my site, any ideas on how I can promote my site?

hmmm, I have to agree, very little content.
Btw, do you host these files yourself, arent you worreid about bandwith charges?

Golf monkee: the torrent files are only about 100kb each!

Nice looks but you should add content more and more to get high traffic.

I'm still waiting to get indexed by google, how long should that take (with a link from my profile)?

I'm aiming tly o get traffic and get indexed by search engines, then hopefully I can build up a community that helps to update the site by uploading new torrents.

but a quick explanation about open source torrents would be very helpful. Having some text/content will also help with search engines and getting linked/found

A logo that would identify your site is a must for your site.
And maybe you can make the menu stand out a little. It took me a few seconds to find the navigation :)

Would the explanation be best on the main page, or in an FAQ? I'll try and get a friend to make me a logo and I'll boost the nav bar size a bit as well. Thanks guys :)
