    My site feels like a scam?
    http://doiop.com/pjf5rn

    I have posted on many forums. The general feedback has been that "your site is a scam" but honestly Its no scam, I'm really getting but there is no advertisers. If you read into FAQ I think its a really really genuine idea, but what im looking for is:

    why does my site feel like a scam?
    what is visually wrong?
    do you feel safe buying redirections on my site?

    Would greatly appreciate any and all recommendations for improving my site :)

    I wouldn't buy anything from your site.
    Your English is bad enough to scare me away.

    Get somebody who speaks English to write your content. Or write in your native language and target people who speak the same language as you (whatever it is).

    Your site looks like it's missing the header image (in FF anyway).

    LMAO!

    Try using an unique template instead of the one from N-design studio... :rolleyes: And try to start your threads in appropriate category.

    Aside from the poor English, the URL is one of the main things that makes it look like a scam. You'd be better off posting a direct link, those random combinations of letters and numbers look highly suspicious to most people.

    The layout is also confusing to most people I imagine. If your intention is to sell things, try making it look like a site that obviously has products to sell rather than a blog layout. I looked at it for about 2 minutes and still wasn't really sure what the site's purpose was or what you were selling.

    Agree with what most of the other people have said. There's no bigger turn off than the feeling of bad language being used... It's like scam alert No1 for me...
    You want to make visitors feel comfortable on the site to sell what you sell - make them comfortable, make them be interested and trust you... Donot scream your head off with the colours, make people stay on your page a little longer and read through the page. Revise your texts and tone it down a little, because at the moment all I feel is that something dodgy is being pushed down my throat...
    And the page does not look finished as Kerosene pointed out above...
