    Hello people. Let's keep this simple.

    I'm GrAve and I've decided that now until 9:30pm(CT time) I will be offering to review anyone's site who posts here asking. I will not be replying to pms either so post here and I'll reply. There are no strings attached and I'm not going to ask you for nothing. I'm just trying to waste some time because I'm stuck in a 1680sq/ft building for a couple of hours and I'm bored.

    My experience:
    -Graphics - I've won in worth1000 6 times now and I can do photo manipulation, as well as graphics banners.(I particularly love merging two diff. cars to make one new car, but that's a hobby)
    -I'm a semi-professional SEO specialist along with a website optimizer for SEO as well as adsense.
    -I've got a degree in Business and marketing so I know how to hold the Cash Cows, bring the rising stars, and drop the skunks in both a retail store online and offline.
    -I own a retail store which I completely run with my wife along with a network of 16 websites and sub-contract 4 websites in which I consult for(all not very profitable yet)

    I make around $700 with adsense alone, couple of hundred through others, about $400 private, and also sell around $900 online per month. So I'm fairly established.


    Show me your site and let me give you advice based on the following achievments you should have:
    1. More total clicks
    2. More of a value for clicks
    3. More traffic
    4. Getting the traffic to stay longer and filter through diff. pages within your site.

    Ok, lets see your site and if you have a blog, I'm sorry I don't review blogs because I don't like them because they are too much alike.

    Hurry, you only have an hour (I'm going to waste my time at yahoo answers if no one replies!!)

    I don't consult online for money. I just take care of my sites and business.

    I have done it to actual business locally but that's a whole new ballpark and typically its for around $60Can per hour based on a minimum 20/h contract.

    Personally, I'm going to say that I love the concept of a site that modifies images upload and intigrates it into a magazine. I think its an amazing concept of a site and personally, I may offer to purchase it from you.

    Here goes my tips
    Adsense:
    1. Make sure all ads are using the multi-color pat. so that they switch colors with refreshing. Never choose "Only Image ads". At the most use both text and image.
    2. Your ads are squared, so change the content ads to slightly rounded. Trust me the boost is about 3% clicks per 100 users when using this if your site has curves in it to match. Yours does!
    3. Take that 728by90 adsense banner and move it under "Home login create your own cover, etc". Right under it man! Then make sure that the space between the background blue until the main table matches the footer as well.
    4. that link ad you got under "
    Perfect for posting on Orkut, MySpace, Facebook, Friendster, Twitter and other social networks". get rid of it and put in a 468 x 60 ad there. It'll do 10 fold better.
    5. Your 336 x 280 is good, you just need to change the link color to your baby blue, not the original link color.
    6. Erase the 728by90 at the bottom. you are only allowed 3 ad units and we've used them all up. I'm sure that out of all of the ads you probably get a 4% click ratio as opposed to the top one's which will dominate in clicks.
    7. Put in your three link units. scatter them in a nice organized place all centered and what not. I would put one 728x15 right at the bottom at the footer, Another under "Images can be JPEG, GIF, or PNG - May not contain nudity, violent or offensive material". Probably a 200x90_4. A third one? You should find a place for it.

    About your site:
    1. More content man! There's barely no words dude!. right under the "Perfect for....blah", don't write that in a point form. You need to switch it to a three line paragraph and explains what its perfect to.
    2. Same for the Welcome to Mago..... Write a 300 word article and put it there talking about whatever the site has to offer, why its so awesome, how it can be used, etc. Also I noticed that its got a full space margin between lines, get rid of that space.
    3. For the recent magazines section, use 6 examples, not 9.
    4. Switch the "recent magazines" to the font color the same as "Welcome to .......". It'll work better.
    5. Under the 336 x 280 ad you need to put something else there. Maybe user E-mail compliments for your service, or anything to add something to the site. It looks empty.

    Sorry, don't review blogs as stated before. What, you guys cannot read or something?. I Believe that when it comes to blogs, they are a dime-a-dozen. 1 out of 5,000 are worth even being on the internet. The quality of them is so low it isn't funny. Vacation blogs owned by people who have never leaved their region, adsense opt. blogs with the owner asking at DP on how to make money with adsense, and muscle car blogs owned by someone who drives a Reliant K. Blogs suck at getting popular unless you got a huge catch like "failblog" which is pretty annoying of a site, but popular thanks to their mass copyrighting.

    RadzNguyen Wrote:
    This is actually for adsense placement and what not, but heck, why not. I pull tons of traffic. This will be a smaller review because I'm strapped for time here. Also this is a blog, but I consider this site approachable because its kind of site like:
    Adsense:
    1. Same thing I tell everyone. Use the multicolor patlette so the ads switch. Trust me.
    2. I realize that you are using the STICK OUT AD Approach which is something I believe works in 60% of all sites even though a lot of these DP clowns say that you are supposed to blend. It works for me so I do it. I like the odd color of your ad on the top right, but I don't like that it is always the same. Use the multi-color patlette and many 1 more stick out ad and 2 blends and get them to swtich. Give people that change.
    3. That ad does not fit in your site dude. You need a smaller width one becuase half of its hidden. I'm thinking adsense will ban you if they see that so you need to fix it quick.
    4. Above "Recent Posts" put in a 728by90 content banner. I cannot stress about how important it is that you have ads high in the site. Don't even think about using only image ads or someone better smack you in the head.
    5. Cool off on all of those little square ads. They are annoying me and the rest of the visitors. They look tacky on the site.
    6. place some link ads around the site. In the footer I see a gradiant bar. Maybe put one centered there, one under your page switch thingy, etc.

    That'll give you a good start for now dude. Good luck!:)

    Hello GrAve, I don't know if the offer is still open because I live in europe and I'm not strong with different time-zones, here's my site, not a blog: http://3pdf.com
    I haven't put adsense on the home page on purpose, in order to allow goodwill webmasters to link to it :)

    Cheers,
    James
