    I have recently switched a custom domain name to my blogger site, though i very much wanted a host by myself but i am pretty bad with hosting and php, so i gave that idea a miss and continued with blogger platform.

    :rolleyes:Etienne Teo Dot Com:rolleyes:

    I want constructive comments on how i can improve my site here. if there are comments i am accepting it.:D

    your adsense blending looks good.

    i think adding link unit above your main menu may be good blending your site:)

    The ad's are not targeted on your homepage, at least not on
    my PC anyway. Of course, people are not going to click on
    the Adsense block if it doesn't present them with offers that
    they're looking for. I would be inclined to use my main
    keyword in the title just above your Adsense. I would then try
    to spread your main keyword a little better throughout the
    article. At the moment, they're concentrated at the beginning
    of the articleOf course, the rest of the page's posts will dilute
    your keywords too.

    As you don't have Adsense on your sub pages, I might be
    inclined to drop them from the homepage, and use Adsense
    style affiliate blocks. You're more likely to get that click.

    I would make not only the URL, but the title of the ad a link color as well. Right now it's black, the same color as your font. People may not think it's a link.

    Nicesurf, I see you did not start a new topic for your review. The top of your page looks fine. I do not know about the search box at the end of the page. How does other people feel about a search box. To me the search box seems like a total waste of time. I hardly ever get click from the search boxes.

    One thing I found works for me is to put a link bar at the end of the page. After the visitor read your article he is looking for a link to the next information.

    Could you guys please have a look at http://www.freeforex.net
    The site gets around 3000 visits per month. The revenue per click is good but the clicks are extremely low. Before the medium and large rectangle blocks I used 728 leaderboards with more or less the same results.

    Some of my web sites like http://www.photosa.co.za and http://www.digiprop.co.za outperforms this site by far according to Click ratios

    no nicesurf I won't do what you ask, you're not on a public forum here, you're on someone else's thread. Open your own.

    profitline, actually it's nice the way you have it, I will say the obvious: have adlink blocks and a google search, and maybe a top 336x280 above all content.
    And if that is not enough, maybe try a float: left instead of float:right in your blog entries.

    It looks like you're not using labels for any of your posts. I would add keywords to each of the posts.
