    Hi All,

    I am fairly new to this forum and to creating and marketing a new website but have recently had someone create the following blog for me

    http://www.solarpowerelectricityblog.com

    please let me know your thoughts and any areas you feel could be improved on

    First thing I noticed is the Title of the page has that Large text then the small text followed at the top. The small text seems to fun into the search bar on my computer. I would shorten that up, maybe keep it as some keywords or minor keywords.

    Also remember Google has those text link ads too and you can have up to 5 on your page and their small and I think look nice in between text.

    This is an interesting site, but I have a couple questions.
    1. Are you selling anything on the site? It's a perfect opportunity to do so because people will read your information and want to purchase.
    2. Have you thought about having an opt-in on the site?
    3. I agree with others about the grapes - should be something relating to solar power.

    For myself - and this is only *my* opinion - I don't understand the purpose of a blog if you don't somehow monetize it (more than Adsense ads or Amazon books - some affiliate links to products or How To information).

    I wish you great success with it - it's certainly the right time for this information.
