Hi I have just started this new cooking site...It is a little different than others..But its more of a fun community type thing... So please give me some reviews and let me know what think It has content not viewable by guest so....Feel free to login with this Test account...Also +rep to all reviewers And thank you ahead of time user Test pass Test Cooking Junkies
It looks great on first glance. I'm glad the ads were removed once you login, that's a good feature. You can add a bigger Google Adsense ad on the top header since you have enough space. The image of the cook seems kind of scrunched together so if you could widen that it would help a lot. You could also setup an area in the footer for either link exchanges or selling links.
Thank you for the nice ideas. Yeah I am hoping by all ads vanishing on sign in..More people will register. We are getting tons of organic traffic..ANd tons of guest traffic...Plus I just added the RSS feeds page and submitted them everywhere...So waiting on the people LOL.... But thank you for the kind words...I spent most of my time SEOin as much as possible.....It still needs alittle work..And your right for some reason that Chef keeps getting squished...I am working on fixing that But thanks for the kind words..I will look into the link stuff +rep
The ad in the banner doesn't work, a bloody finger from a diabetes ad was the first thing that caught my eye. You could try to add few more pics of succulent food on the homepage. I love the design and it's easy to find the things you're after. Almost there, well done.
I like it, simple layout and to the point. I spotted one small imperfection that could make the header look much smoother. The flaw is that you can see the border line of your upper left cook/logo image, mostly on the right side. Hope that helps, make it look nicer.
The ad is being served by google...I have no control over what they put there.....But yeah I am thinking about the picture thing...But thank you for your review +rep Thank you I will look into that +rep
Thank You very much. +rep Thank You +rep Though I was kinda looking for what do you think needs to be improved and such? I mean I think it looks easy on the eyes and everything blends in well.And I have done my best to SEO it up....I was just wondering if anyone else has any other ideas?
Yeah everyone keeps saying it maybe my eyes are bad.. But if you look here http://www.cookingjunkies.com/images/oceanzero/oceanzero_logo.gif It is completely transparent...dunno LOL I cant figure out the outline on the box for nothing..maybe its a browser thing But thank you +rep
Seems fine to me. For what it is targeted for, probably do not have any suggestions. It is good that you have chosen to make the monetization subtle and lesser focus than the content. Good Luck!
