    Hi. I own a blog called http://latestbeauty.com. I have so much content but I am not getting enough traffic and visits. Also, the amount of time people are staying on isn't that long.

    Anyway, is there anything you think my blog needs? It has tons of content.

    The site is well designed, it's nice and clean and easy to navigate and very user
    friendly. However, I would recommend that you remove the adsense ad at the
    top of the page this makes the site look a bit spammy.

    Thats true. Plus I doubt anyone will click up there right?

    I like the design. I would use a different ad unit than the one above the header. You could try using a horizontal banner between you posts. The ad at the top takes away from the very nice logo.

    Good Luck

    I like the lay-out and colours very nice. My personal opinion, too much on the home page, way too much to sort through, you might re-consider shortening the page.
    Best of luck with it :D
    Cheers

    I suggest getting some structure into it.

    The page has content but perhaps a bit too bloated to navigate easily.

    I agree with others on 2 things:
    -You might want to consider removing the header ad, and placing some ads in the middle of content items for a better click rate.
    -You might consider shortening the amount of items displayed per page. The homepage is verrry long, too long even!

    But all in all - a very nice blog! I like!
