My first online project

    Hey. Not too long ago, i got hooked on the idea of this whole online marketing business.

    My first project was a myspace resource site. Yes, i know there are like a million other ones, but i went for it anyway.

    My goal for this is to break even, where my ad revenue will pay for my hosting needs, which is only ~$10 per month at the moment. After this project, once ive learnt what i need to, in terms of SEO, ill start something new, more original, and try to profit from that.

    Anyway, for my first attempt, i made:

    http://www.sunnyprofiles.com

    I made the layout, and coded the whole thing myself. Most of the content is my work too, but i will start buying some from designers soon.

    So yea. Anyone able to give me some feedback? What is its value in terms of SEO? Is the layout decent? etc.

    Thanks in advance,
    Dan.

    you should make it a little wider so the adsense doesnt stick out past the other tables if you get me?

    Thanks for the comments everyone :) And yes, druzilla, i get what youre saying. I am considering making it wider. I could do with a larger content space too.

    I like the look a lot. I think I would place a space between the 3 main segments so there isnt a double bold line. Other than that, I love the layout. Its nice and clean.

    If you use internet explorer, there are gaps. For some reason, the gaps dissappear in firefox though. Im trying to fix it.
