    I have changed the homepage slightly, changed the first paragraph and added a blog feed!

    Your site doesn't have much content. And your layout is way too generic. I would hire someone to create a better eye-catching template. You'll need to post a lot of content to make your site successful. Good luck!

    I agree with gordon08, you need some unique content. After all "content is king". Also the fact you don't have the domain name, will go against you.

    Where are you focusing on this lack of content? Personally I like the layout, not sure how I could improve it to be honest. But thanks alot!

    I do have some unique content there, in fact im pretty sure most of it is unique, where would you suggest I need to put this content?

    I am planning on getting my own domain name very, very soon so that should be fine then, so please ignore that fact.

    Thanks.

    What you seem to overlook though is that most domains will be snapped up very quickly, and when they are your choice is limited

    I do not understand what you are trying to get at? Are you trying to say that I will not have much flexibility when choosing a URL?

    I seem to recall that a lot of domains for your title had already gone? I can't remember though. But sooner the better is what I am meaning

    That is a blog though, blogs and websites are extremely different.

    No I can easily set my blog up to sell something. I haven't finished the WSO for Fiverr yet so I'm gonna post content while I do. You need people to know you're experienced with Fiverr.

    But I cannot display as much content in my homepage as I could with a blog, do you recommend I use a Blog as well?

    Hm, You have certainly left me wondering about what I am going to end up doing! I am not sure whether to go for a blog as well as the website, but I already have a Blog on my website...
    Hmmm.

    It seems like there is some good content, but I agree the front page is a bit bland and I'm not sure immediately what you are selling. Add some color to your front page and it should help a lot.

    Have you any suggestions on what you would like to see on a homepage of this type of site?

    And where could I add this colour?

    your image that reads "The Ultimate fiverr guide", is on a white background. When I went to the page there was a dell ad right below it that was a nice gradient green like your site. My eye went straight to the Dell ad.

    Make you header a colored background and it should fix it.

    Interesting suggestion! I shall test it now and have a look at what it looks like, was it a darker shade of green or light like the title text?
