    Please let me have your thoughts on my finance article directory http://www.financesandmoney.co.uk

    Just uses a standard wordpress template and won't be paying for redesign until it makes some money, what I want to know is do you think it will make money or at least get traffic?

    What features are missing? If you know any plugins that will make it work better please let me know.

    If you've got any articles you'd like to submit please do.

    I like the colors and the layout. Navigation is clear and precise. In my opinion a very clean and simple - 9/10

    It is nice. I like the simplicity. Try to add pictures in your articles- when you have the opportunity. It can make the article more entertaining. Maybe you can try to add picture advertising as well.

    Looks like you have good content. The design is nice and simple, which is also helpful. But, after the first two articles, the rest of them are all in bold, which is a bit annoying. I'd probably fix that.

    Auto Blog you mean duplicate content? I'd rather people signed up and submitted articles, some might be original that way.

    But I suppose autoblogging would make the site look more popular in the meantime, might consider that thanks.

    Thanks for all suggestions please keep them coming

    well, if you wanna get some money, keep with writing unique quality content, and get some backlinks.
    try to better arrange your adsense in the posts, i dont like the position.

    Template is quite plane, also the site took quite a bit of loading, and this was not due to my connection since i have a 50mb connection.

    The content looks laid out well thought the links on the right may look better with some sort of border around them.

    The design is simple and clean.It was bit slow in loading and try to add images that will make more entertaining.
