    hi, im new to blogging i have tried creating two blogs although i used the same sort of layout and colour scheme i find it easy, and easy to make ads blend in. I would like you to review my blogs and tell me what you think needs to be changed to maximise money making aspects and general outlook! thanks!!

    hi jalal,

    Nice blog, maybe you can consider changing from blogger to wordpress, because wordpress got much more tools and it also easy to use (just my opinion).

    In think better don`t put maximum 3 google ads in one page, If you put less ads, the google ads will likely display the most expensive ads related on your page.

    cheers

    How long has the blog been up for... Its nice, but I think you need a little more color added.. Use wordpress, like Maira said..

    Good luck

    It may be a good idea to shift the colors to the bronze ones for the body building blog, and to the green ones for the islam blog.

    before i do this, i want to know why you think thats a good idea? and also do you think reducing the number of ads i have on my page will increase revenue? and im only getting 30-50 views a day if i make posts and digg every post i make! my best is 200, if i dont post it drops to 10 sometimes 5! how can i get more views to my bodybuilding one, its the one im concentrating on the Islam one is under development, atm really.

    you have too many links in your blogroll.it is not good about your page's Pagerank.i know linkmarket.it is not a good idea on blogger.you can not add 1000 links on your blog.

    I think the blog looks a bit too plain.. but for your photograph on the right, I would make it larger so it has the same height as your adsense ad on the left.

    very informative articles. I'd change the header and make it more interesing than just the words bodybuilding expert.
