Well , theme is too bright for me , I don`t either like the dark ones but your is very ...white and shiny....

Ad placement - from what I see it`s okay , ads are available without scrolling down

 

have to agree with darkstar... there is not much contrast between the grey tones and its a bit harsh on the eyes trying to figure out where the grey ends and the white starts.

Using darker colours would help and a little less grey would make it more attractive.

Just my 2 cents

 

The template is way too plain.. I would add some sky blue to the color scheme (with your headings and main text)

 

too "invisible" if that's even a description
like mentioned before, you need another color. Light blue would work, or a light greenish. Ad placement is fine, and they look good now, but if you add another color like blue or green you may want to consider changing the ad link color as well

 

Thanks guys , Yep , The theme is too pain , I will play with it.

 

Maybe u should move categories to left and advertising to right ?

 

well the theme is superb.

But i cant understand wht does that means in your title !

Gadgets, SEO and soccer these are three different things.. how can you get them in one place. i mean you should go for one. either the blog should be a SEO blog or soccer and vice versa.

Dont like the idea honestly speaking..

 

Gadgets , SEO and Soccer are my passion. I'm still working on the theme.

 

too many social bookmarking icons. heh

 

In general, i find light grey text hard to read, but this layout sure makes your ads pop. Have you done some A B testing?

 

Template is too plain and no match with Gadgets related theme ..
why are u using so many social bookmarking icons ?? use only Google SB Sites around 8-10 are More then enough

 

I like it overall. It works for me.

 

Theme is good but why your navigational side bar is at bottom?

I don't see any ads on the site at the moment.

 

I like the theme, but maybe you could change some colors. There are a lot of bookmarking websites, and I can't see the ads.

 

I changed the Grey theme , and used the current one , however , I'm still thinking where to put the ADS , as for the bookmarks i will decrease them.

 

Hi,

Looks good. The only comment I have is may be a lighter background color will make the content stand out (but then I am not a gerat web design guy myself - more of a backend logic guy). For ad placement I think you could put vertical ads below your right hand menu.

 

Thanks for your honest feedback , I will try the lighter background.

 

Well , theme is too bright for me , I don`t either like the dark ones but your is very ...white and shiny...
