    I'm wondering if people know to click on the "example links" (for example where it says 25 examples etc..) or do they leave thinking the blog is not interesting. If I put all the examples on the blog (rather than on the forum) then it sort of ruins the optimization.

    So tell me if the site and blog needs more material or what else needs to be done.

    http://drumlessonblog.com

    http://www.drummingsite.com/forum/ - linked to the blog very heavily.

    Also, I'd like to add a logo to my blog but there is not place to do it.

    Good luck with the blog from a fellow drummer (and musician).

    The site needs a logo and another theme!

    If you can not have articles for blog, better focus on forum.I also agree that you should have some guy to design a logo for you.

    seems you have some pagerank but the blog design needs changing and logo adding to make it look a little more interesting imo, best of luck

    the drum website looks a bit plain probably because of content. you need a lot more categories to really get conversations started. other then that good design
    for the blod the same thing need more content and the posts look a bit too spaced out maybe cause headers are just too big and bold. maybe change the font and make it unique.

    overall pretty good. content is main issue

    You need someone to do the content for you. Visitors are sometimes too lazy to do a lot of clicking. It would be better if you can show or podcast directly on your blog. Otherwise, just work on the forum first.

    I will put the examples on the blog, rather than the forum (since the blog gets good traffic - 2,300 a month). The forum will link to the blog rather than visa versa. I will try to get a logo, but it's tough because it doesn't fit. Perhaps, if I could get somebody to modify the CSS. However, I could put the logo on the sidebar.
