    Hey guys...

    I have a new site up... Anyone care to provide some feedback?

    Also, if you find any spelling errors, please let me know, thanks...


    JokeGlobe.com


    By the way, I'm going to add more to the sidebar... adsense and partner sites, etc...

    To be honest with you I liked it hen there was just ONE joke on the page. When I first click on the site, I saw a black page with an nice joke, making me want to click the 'Next...' button. After, that I was like ohh sh#$ so many categories, and stuff. Well, thats nice. BUT I think if you have the jokes to be randomly displayed on that one page where I first landed (home page) would be nice, and if the visitor clicked on the Next... link, another random joke would be displayed. Just my input.

    Ok first of all you want to look at the age group that uses these type of sites, when I want to your site I just felt like I was reading some stock website. A very very quick mock-up I did:

    It's a pretty nice web 2.0 layout. The the orange circle , you can try to use a more glossy effect than what it has right now :) I think that would make the logo stand out more.

    Great site! Love the start up page joke thing - really neat idea. The one I got was a funny joke too!

    One suggestion...

    Is there an RSS feed on it? I'd love to hook it into my Google desktop RSS reader so that I kind of get random jokes fromk the site pop onto my desktop.

    Loved your concept, but maybe you could do one joke at a time like the guy said in a previous post, and edit the layout to be more "fun" and creative, love your idea though, not many people do that. creative. propped.

    Well you definitely have jokes, and a pretty good looking logo/domain name.

    As for navigation, I think it's fine. And that's pretty cool that you have a random joke on the homepage.
