Hello, My blog got rejected for "difficult site navifation". I have no clue what I'm doing wrong. I got a simply Blogger site, with no special gadgets or anything: http://www.lionsinjapan.com I know the URL without www doesn't work, and that lionsinjapan.blogspot.com redirects. Could that be the problem? If so, how do I solve it?
I should think it's NaNoWriMo 2013 [UPDATED: PAGE 16] on the menu and the menu/content that leads to that is the issue
When opening your site, it seems a bit chaotic. Clearly you are a good artist and an interesting writer, but at first look the site appears odd and I'm left wondering how to see other posts and what topics they are about. When you compose (or edit) a post, set a label. It's possible to set multiple labels, but using one per post can be less chaotic and make navigation and content discovery easier. I would strongly recommend changing that as right now it redirects to a parking page. Instead, have the non-www redirect to the www site. That is fine. To recap, my suggestions would be Use labels (one per post) and have links to the labels in the right sidebar. Instead of having a separate page for "NaNoWriMo 2013 [UPDATED: PAGE 16]" you can make a label about this and just make blog posts. If there are some labels (categories) more important that others you could add links in the "primary navigation" area. make sure that lionsinjapan.com redirects to www.lionsinjapan.com After you have tweaked your site, ask some friends and family what they think about navigating it. Implement a "responsive design" so that the site views fine regardless of device (PC, tablet, smartphone, or whatever) and screen size. Good luck with your site.
Didn't manage to fix the www thingy (will revisit later), but I added an archive page on top and a lable list to the right side bar. Since I make 2-3 NaNoWriMo posts a day, and only rarely a blog post, I am posting those on a subdomain. I now have the page going to the subdomain, but I don't know whether that makes any difference? The design is a template from Blogger so I'm hoping #5 is okay... Thanks for the help! You are very patient with newbie me Gonna get to tip #4 now.
OMG you very SEXY as in,the about page your picture is cool,you very tall and the brown heels. But your english difficult site **navifation** is navigation
It might be possible to set up the non-www to www redirection through your Go Daddy account: http://support.godaddy.com/help/article/422/forwarding-or-masking-your-domain-name It's an improvement, but friends and family (if they are honest and don't try to just be nice ) should be able to give you good feedback on the user experience and if anything needs improving there. I see what Blogger does now when visiting with a mobile - it adds what is called a "query string" to the URL in order to redirect to a mobile version of the site. It's just not "responsive" in a desktop browser (meaning: when I resize my browser window the site does not resize with it, so there are scroll bars left/right). Good luck with it. It's a refreshing to change that someone makes a site that is actually interesting and not on a topic such as make money online, how to spam, blah blah blah. Seriously, have you never seen a beautiful woman before?! Clean yourself up and change your pants. Don't be so picky, especially when your English sucks. It was clearly a typo. Read the rest of what the OP has written and you will see that their English is very good (a native speaker?? or close).
IT WORKED. Thank you! It was so easy too, following those steps... Thanks for the compliment too I feel a bit uneasy here, amongst all the pros.
