How can I make my gaming blog better? Review it please.

    I have been writing for my gaming blog over a year now and I would like to know what I can do better?

    When you first go to my blog what do you like and not like, I would like to know. Should I change the look of my blog? Is the writing good or should I work on making it better? What would be the best ad place ment for most clicks? And any feed back on how to get more traffic would be nice, right now I get about 100 to 300 a day.

    Check it out at: http://onpause.org

    Thanks, RonyDean

    You need a header, and some color.

    For the most part it just seems to be embedded videos from Game Trailers. Why wouldn't we just go to that site instead of yours and get the information from the source?

    I would change the font of your site name and add some images to the header.
    The content and the body of the blog look good though.
    The favicon is not readable. Try something with fewer characters, "oP" for instance.

    Good Luck

    When I first came to the site, I thought that it as a game hacking website :) Games should be fun (it's the whole purpose) so I guess, maybe change the whole website color theme other than just plain and empty black.

    Hey Dean,
    I must say your blog is really interesting and for now i just think is kind of good, but there are some thing you missing out like : navigation like on left side and right side. and a banner with maybe a gaming background.

    Alright I have updated the header, changed the font of onPause and changed the favcon, I will still be working on the site changing the colors to make it a little brighter.

    With the header I will be updating it every few weeks with a new game.

    The grey font in the right column would be more legible if you made it white.

    That's a nice blog. Perhaps pay a professional to create you a new theme for your blog website. With so many blogs out on the internet, it's very tough to set yours apart from the other blogs out there today.
