    Hi,

    I have a thread already, but that was created a few days before I done a re-design of this site and it has the wrong title and is actually a thread to compare 2 different sites designs.

    Well I thought it would be best to start a new thread as I want a review of my site now that it has had a total re-design.

    The site is: http://www.affiliateseeking.com

    All good and bad comments are welcome.

    Thanks!

    Thanks,

    I'm still wanting more reviews. Good and bad.

    The design wasn't so clean before, but I have now realised the a clean design is the way to go as people want to go to a site and now what its all about in a few seconds. With my site you can clearly understand that it is an affiliate programs directory and it is easy to find things. Well I hope so anyway.

    well yeh considering you have 1,600 being easy to navigate is def your number 1 concern, maybe a google ad placement smack bang in the middle of the directory would increase adsense earnings, at the moment there is no real need for users to look at the ads they are totally out of the way of the content (on the home page anyway)

    Good blending of the adsense ad. I have a feeling of text overload when I visited your site. Maybe add a stock photograph or graphic somewhere to make it look more appealing

    More comments please.

    Also could you please mention if the main top naivation to the right changes light green when you hover over it and it looks ok, I am not 100% accurate with stylesheets, and don't know if it works in older browsers or not.

    Thanks!

    I previously had it like that with the site before, having an adding above the main content. It does improve clicks, but then I didn't want this new design to look to cluttered.

    So far I have not seen any gain in visitors, so I would imagin that the extra ad din't loose me any visitors and only gained me clickthru's so I will probably put one in the main content.

    Although I didn't get much comments, I am happy that I have improved the site quite a bit as I have already seen an increase in traffic. Infact today I have had the highest amount of traffic since the start of April last year.

    Things are looking good and as I planned.
