    Just set up this site. I know there's not much content on at the moment (i'm working on it) but I would really appreciate your honest feedback.

    Initial impression? ways to improve/monetise? if you were interested in phuket would you return to the site?

    Be brutally honest, Thanks

    Well done. Only the section related sites could give you a problem with Google. So far as I'm concerned it could be against their TOS. I like the simple design with a good overview. Are you a Farang?

    Yeah I'm English, been living in Phuket for 2 years. This is the first site I've bothered to put up live.

    What do you mean against googles TOS?

    TOS stands for terms of service. People have lost their accounts by using anything else than sponsored ads, advertisement etc.. Better play save than sorrow.

    Good luck with your good site. Looks promising.

    Very nice design. You might want to remove the blue border around the top adsense adverts and see if it does any damage to your CTR, as I think it would look nicer without it.

    Good work! Only thing I noticed in IE are two image files to the left of "Advertise here" banner that don't render. Just remove this piece of code:
    <a href=""><img src="" alt="" /></a>
    <a href=""><img src="" alt="" /></a>
    Looks good in Firefox.
