    Hello Guys,

    Recently, I came up with a good decision. Since I am an administrator, why not blog about the fixes and solutions I make. Plus I can make my online notes and be able to share it with others as well. Plus a little added revenue. :D Other posts are from other authors but that helped me in fixing my problems.

    Here's my newest blog:

    http://techsupportoncall.blogspot.com

    What do you think?

    Am glad to accept any feedbacks or suggestions.

    Thanks!

    I went through your blog and overall it looks fine to me! That's a really good decision! But I have one point though: it would be great to classify all your articles according to the categories to help your readers find the information the are looking for...

    but anyway, great work! Keep it on!

    One more point! I have not found the About page. For many readers it is one of the main things they look for, if they are going to read the blog. And first of all they ask: Who is this?
    As important as the content is the credibility of the author, and credibility is extremely difficult to establish if the author is anonymous.

    Good Luck!

    I agree with Leis, you will need to add categories or labels somewhere above the fold. I like you heading design.
    For this type of site, your visitors might want to print a post.
    If you can supply a button to print an individual post that would be great.
    Good Luck.

    Wow guys. Thanks for the nice feedbacks Leis and Sherife. I am fairly new to this and I am trying to test out little design tweaks. I'll also add the about section or page. I nearly forgot about it so thanks for the tip!

    As to the categories, i don' t know anything about php that's why as much as I want my blog to have categories like wordpress, I can't. I know it has something to do with the codings. I'll try to also work on that print button.

    Good work!
    But I have some points, though (if you don't mind).
    It would be better to organize your right column a bit:
    - first of all to left align the whole content there - it will make it neat and clean.
    - might want to move categories and archive blocks at the top of the column, and the ads - below them.

    Good luck!

    I like the blog but I think the right column could be aligned a little bit neater.

    Great content. Really liked it. But I have a couple of suggestions.


    Number one you need a new template...
    Secondly get the content organized
    Thirdly provide more info about yourself so people know that you are not a "fly by night" as they would say:D
