    Looks good but i would move the navigation from left to the right or ideally on top.

    Cool ideas but I think it's too messy for my taste. Clean it up a bit and relocate your adsense to upper part of theme.

    Ahh ya that would be ideal, but for now the wp template is just one that's premade, I will probably get another template (or customised design) soon

    Thanks! :D

    I'll change the adsense placement abit when I install a new wp theme to it, thanks btw!! :]

    nice work, good luck with promoting it, i would suggest to start creating some meta data other than a page title

    :) indeed, meta descriptions and tags will def help you get indexed on yahoo and other search engines. Google also takes them into account. Since your website business theme is specific to asian music a forum will def help you get some traffic and some engagement from interested users, all the best

    hi Sapphiro,
    your site is great on design. but your adsense is too obvisouse that IT IS AN AD. cos the background color is white, make it jump out to tell visitors that this is a ad. i feel it is better that if you can make the background color of the adsense to the same as the background color of your site. visitor will make more click cos they feel the adsense is just a part of your site.
    good luck

    Ok, I've added the meta tags to the site. Hope it'll improve the SEO thingy.

    For the ads, unfortunately there isnt a "transparent" background for adsense, black background looks weird as well, I'll see how I can improve on this.. :D Thanks.


    Btw, do you guys mind letting me know as well, if the music videos over there are "attractive" enough to make you return to the site once in awhile?? :D Point of view as a visitor instead of a web developer.. :D

    Heh thanks!! Btw what do you mean by Alexa and pagerank? I thought those are only tools to view site's ranking and PR, any way to optimise on that?? @.@

    Oh btw, I'm looking for link building as well now. ;)

    its good that you have included a meta description to your home page, i have also noticed that you have used a lot of keywords, if i was you i would reduce the number of keywords to 7-8, try and use 2 or 3 word keywords, such as east asian music or japanese pop music etc. you can use various online tools to get keyword suggestions and you need to monitor them oftenly. I have also noticed that your page title in some pages is the same, try and change that if you can, i.e you can use for your chinese songs a title like this rather than east asian music-chinese, i would use the following: Chinese music videos - songs - Pop chinese music. I encourage you to experiment and keep changing them so you can find the right mix. good luck
