Hey Guys, I just got a new site up, (and a first post), what do you guys think. Please be as brutal as possible, since i want this one to be good site. itopten.org Thanks Nick
Not much content at the moment, it is quite plain and the Adsense does not integrate well into the overall look of the web site
nice domain name.. but simple design.. but not bad design.. to survive with blog have more content and promotion.. by the way give me comments on my two blogs.. www.ostime.blogspot.com -- OpenSourceTime. www.pmdocs.blogspot.com -- ProjectManagementDocuments.
About the content. I just started it a couple of hours ago, so it really shouldn't have that much content just yet. What do you mean by "the adsense doesn't intergrate well". Thanks. Pretty good blogs. Some nice stuff on the first one. I really have no clue what the second one is for.
It doesn't load right for me...or you designed it like that? The links to the blog entries are at the bottom I can't see unless I scroll down. I'll give full review once you have more content and have made changes.
I don't know who Kevin Rose is - a tooltip or parenthetical comment for those like me would help me feel less clueless. Same thing with proxies. While I know what a proxy server is in networking terms, I am not sure how they hose Adsense and why Adversal works. (and if you are an Adversal affiliate, you need to link that too) Lastly, the adsense column has the same amount of real estate as your blog column, which tends to minimize its relative importance. On the good side, the flow of your writing is very good. In spite of not quite understanding some of the terms, I could still grasp that you were defining a problem then offering a solution - always a winning combination.
Good, I'm not the only one who doesn't know what a proxy site is. Is that one of those sites with the smiling girl who's the same girl on every single one? Where there's just a bunch of links to other sites? Do you have those? Is that why you're blogging about them? Sheree
Just saw Proxy Domain Affiliate offer at this (http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=619304) thread. It appears to be similar to a parked domain (which is a dumb site full of automatically generated "relevant" links, except that it cloaks your IP address, evidently so the sites you visit can't tell who you are and where you came from (your ISP is masked by the proxy's domain name). The search results were full of terms like "stealth" and "hidden". Seems somewhat surreptitious, but evidently necessary for some.
I love the header! The design is great! I wish I could say something more, but it's good, all you need is more content. Good luck
Kevin Rose is the owner/founder of www.digg.com Proxies are things that you can use to connect to the internet through another computer. So instead of your computer >>> internet you go your computer >>> another computer >>> internet Thank you for your insightful post. I didn't really link any affiliate links since I am just starting up, and I wanted to get a good amount of viewers first before I started pluging those affiliate links in. Regards, Nick A proxy can be used to be annonymous on the internet. It basically hides your identity. http://kb.iu.edu/data/ahoo.html
