    Nice clean and simple design. The colours (blue, pink, white) also go well together.

    Pretty good blog site! :) I like the general layout and color scheme, everything is created tastefully.
    Great work!

    BTW, I checked your site design with IE and noticed that the right section (that is on the light blue background) is not displayed on the home page. On other blog pages this section is displaced.

    Keep it up!

    Nice clean design; I'm personally not a fan of pink, but I didn't vomit when I saw it. :D lol The blue is actually a nice balancer.

    I actually really like the URL, I think you should use it in your logo/title. I'll probably be able to recall your blog's URL at a later date, which is more than I can say for most domains, but why not reinforce it with a sharp, memorable logo? Leverage the domain name, I think it will work for you.

    Hi,

    I think your content is excellent for beginners. I think the colors are going to be primarily attractive to female visitors, which may be your target audience. I think that you will develop an audience if you continue to build good content.

    Feel free to add your site to my site in my LINKS signature below. I am getting about 500 visits a day, and I am indexed every day, so you may be able to pick up some extra visitors. I think your blog is well worth visiting and I will comment so.

    Good luck!

    Rich

    You have a clean website, easy to read. The one thing which I think you should consider is moving the recently read from the bottom to the right side. What most people do is quickly scan through articles and blog posts and then decide to leave. If you have the most popular and recently read on the right side you are more likely to keep them at your website for a longer time.

    Right now you have it right at the bottom after a number of posts. Very people will scroll down that far. Instead, they will just leave before.

    Additionally, I suggest you update regularly. Keep adding articles and pick your very best ones for the most popular and commonly read. Many bloggers make the mistake of just putting any article under those headings. Do not do that. Take some time to pick out your best articles.

    Other than that try to concentrate on a set of keywords for each blog. Remember to keep that keyword density in the %3-5 range as this will really help you in the long run. Keep keywords in mind for each and every article. Keep up the hard work and goodl luck!

    I like it, looks very neat, maybe you could put the ads under the same meny as the categories, archives etc. It's a lot of space not used. If you did this you will get more space for your articles.
