A Blog for the Morally Flexible - Please Review

Hello there!

I've been a blogger for a while, but most of the time I've been working for others. Now I have finally made my very own blog.

You can check it at: http://www.grayhatzone.com/blog/

Any suggestions on how I could improve it would be greatly appreciated and some +rep factor will be involved.

So please tell me what you think.

Regards, George

 

The layout and design of the site is nice, but I think it would look better if:

- You got a professional logo.

- If you added some graphics to go with the blog postings on the page.

 

The professional logo and a favicon are definitely on my todolist.

As for the blog postings graphics, do you think that a "Digg It" button would do the trick? Or should I add a small custom graphic logo to each of them?

Thanks you very much for your response.

Regards, George

 

For the blog postings it would be great if you had a small custom graphic
which relates to the specific blog posting, good luck with the blog.

 

Indeed this would seem the best course. Thanks again for your input mate. If I could +rep you twice, I would.

 

Simple, but nice!

 

i think you should move the navigation and advertisements to the right of the content.

 

Thanks.

I have to think of ways to monetize the site and the current design is helpful as it gives high exposure to the ads. I agree though that the layout doesn't exactly follow the common usability standards but in my case seems the optimum choice.

Keep'em coming

Regards, George

 

I think you should remove the empty ads column or put some ads on it. Empty white boxes isn't looking good and taking up space.

 

I'm already working on this issue.

Thanks for the heads up.

Regards, George

 

double post! delete!

 

add an rss feed icon at the end of each post, more people will subscribe this way

 

This is actually a very good tip. Added on my todolist.

Otherwise I'm sorry that I can only rep you once .

Thanks mate.

Regards, George

 

I love the morally flexible concept. The blog is full of great content and the look of the site is easy on the eyes. Great job addressing the issues listed here.

 

Thank you for your kind words.

As for addressing the issues... well.. this is why I started this thread in the first place. I wanted to find the soft spots and harden them

Regards, George

 

Cool blog for sure. Some great content on there... my only advice would be to keep writing and post up some more posts! Keep at it.

 

How about change your username "admin" to your name?

 

Thanks you for the encouraging words. I'm trying to maintain a one post per day rhythm.

This is a great tip. Added on my todolist.

Regards, George

 

Liked the layout. Also the overall theme and content. As a morally flexible person I will be visiting your blog ofter

 

I like the design but its too dark. I want a site to be more uplifting. Get the logo redone.
