    Hi,

    Please review my dog training website, www.dneprimport.com. I just re-did the design.

    Im not finished with menu, yet, as you can see. Any advice on what would look good with the menu? Any other things?

    I like the site.

    The ads definitely need to blend better.

    The adsense ad at the bottom of the articles may do better as a 350x250 unit (or similar) within the article.

    Are you going to add a free newsletter? Perfect type of site for a bi-weekly email.

    Under dog collars 101:
    Images of each style would be nice. Links to where I can purchase one. Both can be done as an affiliate for Petsmart/Petco.

    Dog food reviews, ingredient reviews, Hurriccane Katrina.
    Images. A picture of the can. A dog eating. A wet and sad looking dog. An image for each article can do wonders. People love dogs. People love looking at dogs.

    It looks pretty good i suggest you expand the layout so there isn't blank around the layout.

    I would reverse the position of the ads and text of your artcles.
    The articles will appear more natural and the text will be under the title.. People read left to right so they will still look at the adsense ads. The CTR of that ad position should be quite good.

    I would advice you to change the background of google ads, everything else is ok.

    Good luck

    1. Site is well coded.
    2. Combination of colors is good

    Suggestion:
    1. Maybe you can try dhtml menu and insert more contents
    2. Nice animated header would help

    Wow! Great improvement since last week when I looked. Site should do well now. Experiment with ad placement and colors to find the highest CTR.
