    Just do a search on google for free blogger templates.
    Then I'd possition the adds better.

    My first suggestion would be to get off of blogspot, get your own domain, and install wordpress. (of course this is just my personal opinion)...though having your own domain looks a hell of a lot more professional...shows you aren't afraid to spend a little to get a little...

    Remove the wide banner add in the side bar...it's stretching the side bar out and making the content area on the right smaller than what it can be...

    and the tons of keywords you have at the top of your page...it looks really tacky...why don't you make an article/post that is stickied on the front page...but actually incorporates those keywords into sentences/paragraphs...rather than just putting them all up at the top...

    Colors aren't compatible so ads not compatible.

    Definitely need a different template. Change your adsense to match with your design as well. Leave blogspot, buy your own domain it's worth it. Good content though. Good luck.

    Like the others are saying, you might want to change your template. If you search google for "blogger beta templates" you will find a lot of sites with templates. I would also change the name to something more memorable than "making money online," because its pretty generic.

    If I were you I would get a domain name because if you start link building with that URL then you want to buy your own domain you will have to start from scratch, including your alexa rank. You can still host free with blogger and have your own domain, which I'm doing on my blog http://www.nethustlin.com

    Hope that helps :)

    I spoke too soon. I should really look into exercising some patience...hehe. My apologies. The registration e-mail finally came through about 10 minutes after this post. Again...sorry about that.
