I accidentally posted this in the Reviews forum, as opposed to the Websites subforum of Reviews... If a moderator could delete that other thread that would be great. Anywho... My site is http://www.killingthehabit.com I'm looking to get some feedback on the current design/layout. There is no real content as I've just been working on tweaking the template I am using. Also, there is no actual logo as I plan on setting up a contest for that when I have been a member for 14 days (). Basically there's not much to it yet as I have not started adding blog content, but give it a look if you can and tell me what you think! Thanks!
I like the clean modern design. I would make your subtitle "You can stop smoking too" more prominent. You want that to be a major focus point once someone gets on your page. I also think it would hel to have images, maybe grab the GetTheImage plugin and throw up the thumbnails on each post.
Thanks a lot! I'm going to hopefully integrate the "You can stop smoking too" into the header I commission so that it becomes more prominent. As for images, I plan on commissioning or finding a decent set of "thumbnails" that can apply to certain categories or types of posts so that I can catch the eye a bit. Also will be adding a picture of myself to the about page (people like to know you're real. ) Thanks for the tips. I appreciate it.
Agreed on csburdick's opinion. The tagline should be more prominent. Also, can't wait to see the changes that you said you'll be making. Related pictures could make this website more easy on the eyes. Good luck!
No footer? or Thumbnails? Frankly , the site is too empty to review. The design will be thoroughly analyzed only when you have some sort of information that you want to display. Yes the Header needs to be improved (more visible) and Your Bio needs to be inserted in the sidebar.
I agree the header needs to be improved (this has been addressed elsewhere), but I do not plan on putting a bio in the sidebar. This is not a personal blog so the focus will not be around me. I have the about page for that. Also, I'm debating on a footer.. Also, Mr.Waltz, please note in my original post that I'm mainly looking for design/layout critique, as there is very little content. Thanks for the advice so far guys!
