    Hi toddmeister.
    I like your website . Let me help you to change some style, and it will be more beauty . It's about your Facebook Like box and Thailand Hotels blog .

    Go to your admin panel > Appearence >Editor > find and change this two styles
    Change this
    
    #container {
        float: left;
        margin: 0 -240px 0 0;
        width: 94%;}
    by this
    #container {
        float: left;
        margin: 0 -240px 0 0;
        width: 94%;}
    Code (markup):
    and change this
    
    #primary, #secondary {
        float: right;
        overflow: hidden;
        width: 220px;
    
    
    }
    
    
    by this
    #primary, #secondary {
        float: right;
        overflow: auto;
        width: 280px;
    
    
    }
    
    
    
    
    Code (markup):

    Thanks. I changed the settings as above but it now has the grey directional bars on which I don't want. I input the previous setting but its still there. How can I remove it?Thanks

    Hi,

    A few comments

    1) Overall this is a simple yet quite a nice website
    2) I think the header should be better - currently using "tipsthailand.com" is too simple. Maybe make a change here?
    3) I dont like the back ground cyan colour

    Cheers - all the best

    I don't like the FB widget in the right sidebar - is there a reason why to put it there? Nobody cares who likes your website. Just put there a like/share button.
    That banner above the footer makes the website look fishy for some reason.

    Thought the facebook widget may not look great, it can attract new likes to the facebook page which is good for marketing.

    I think you can optimize some background area. You can edit in your CSS if any.

    Hi again,Thanks for all the feedback. I agree the title in the header doesn't look great. I've looked at the options in "themes" but can't see how to change it. Any suggestions on how to go about making it look better?As for the facebook "like box". I don't mind the look of it, I think it looks better than just having the like button but I guess thats just personal preference.I've changed the background colour and now added a twitter buttonThanks again

    Hey Mate,

    It`s good looking websites. I would like to suggest you for some changes in your inner page content having more than 2 - 3 internal link. It`s made bad effect for your website. Also need to changes in URL of the website.

    E.g
    Now : "/?page_id=66"
    Change : "/bangkok"

    It`s Good for your website.
