    Hi,

    I would like to request for some honest reviews of my blogs that includes:

    1. Layout of the site, how is it?
    2. Color combinations, is it matching?
    3. Quality of articles, will you make the effort to read it?
    4. Overall concept, will you constantly visit it?

    Thanks for helping out as I still have a lot to learn.

    Regards
    Eugene Goh

    There is too much empty space especially on the left hand side and the bottom

    First impression is that the loading is painfully slow, most people would have closed the browser before the site came up. Certainly wouldn't spend the time going through multiple pages as it takes too long. Might want to look into that, or get another host.

    1. I like it. Traditional and easy to read.
    2. Traditional, easy to read colors that look good with the adverts.
    3. Doesn't seem your writing ability is very good - phrases being unnecessarily repeated, incorrect punctuation after some sentences, plural word useage, etc. Pretty much, it appears as though your blog is being written by someone who's English is not their primary language.
    4. Marketing blogs are always interesting, but when written poorly really aren't enjoyable.

    PS - try finding a theme that doesn't use a bunch of sponsored links at the bottom. Looks bad from one marketing guy to another, plus it's bad for serps.

    Hi Wisdomtool,

    I understand the empty space. Maybe I should change a theme from wordpress.

    Hi Joe (mdvaldosta),

    I hope that is the right way to address you. I would like to thank you very much for the constructive feedback. I believe that the reason for why it is taking such a long time to load is because of the hosting company that I am using. Am already looking into changing my hosting company.

    Thanks for the compliments of the layout and the color combination. As for my writing skills, I know that I have to make drastic improvements. My primary language is English and I would definitely want to improve on it. I would want to work in such a way to attract repeat visitors back to my blog.

    Lastly, I understand the need for finding a theme or even keywords and focusing on building my blog around the theme and keywords.

    Thank you all for the constructive feedback and would definitely appreciate more.
