    Well you should change the title of the blog to include a slogan or something.

    For some reason I don't like the theme.

    You should properly categorise your content.

    That's all I can think of, I'm sure there are more improvements to be made.

    Visually it looks pleasing and good for a health blog.
    Cross browser compatibility is also good across 3 different browsers.

    SEO side
    - Change your homepage title with your main keyword.
    - Your blog will most likely generate duplicate pages as you are using wordpress, BE SURE to block them using your robots.txt to avoid possible duplicate content issues.
    - Add a meta description for your blog. Keep it short, brief and straight to the point. Making it catchy would also help so that readers would be interested to check out your blog if found in SERPs.
    - Maximise your header navigation well. Add catergories and then use only ONE homepage link.
    - Choose your canonical URL wisely, if you're using without www. then implement a 301 redirect from www.domain.com to domain.com this way, you'll avoid both homepage URL types getting indexed in Google.

    The net does not need another junk health blog created on an dropped domain that had nothing to do with health. You have also stolen articles from other sites which is copyright infringement. If you can't create something unique, original, or a site that adds some value, you should quit now because you will never be successful.

    The domain is not dropped.It is registered since 1999.How you can call this domain a dropped domain?The keyword mbcamp relates to medical so i made this domain a health blog.

    It's a crap site with content you stole from other sites. That makes you a scumbag. mbcamp has absolutely NOTHING to do with anything medical, it was a domain the former owners didn't keep that was run by:

    "AAF-Coastal Carolinas (formerly CAMP) shall be to provide and promote a better understanding of the functions of advertising and of its values; to apply these skills, creativity and energy of the advertising industry whenever it is needed to help social problems; to advocate the standards of advertising through a voluntary program of self regulation; to promote good fellowship and free exchange of ideas."

    Try putting some original content on the site or sit back and wait for a DMCA to be filed against your site to remove it from google and all other major search engines. HostGator will remove your site, and likely terminate your hosting for copyright infringement.

    i have to excuse you. While the content may be taken from other sites, and the title, slogan, and URL may not be very good.... there is NO REASON to sit and call someone a scumbag. Not here. Not anywhere.

    And the funny thing is that his site has not been removed from hostgator. he is actually advertising their services on his site. so you are very funny, but please do watch your language. this is not the place to be using that type of language.

    What do you call someone who steals content from other sites? What would you say to someone if they copied your sites without permission? As far as HostGator - learn to read.

    I agree with mjewel. The Internet is saturated with websites that publish stolen content and whose only purpose is to make money. If mjewel is right and you are using other people's articles without consent, cease and desist immediately! Your efforts (or lack thereof) will prove futile.

    I chose to create a blog for personal reasons and not to make money, but that doesn't mean I want to be the only person reading it. Since anyone and their dog can start a blog in no time and populate it with a crazy amount of content in a very short time, it has become a spammers dream. I can only imagine how many people, after recognizing a website as a blog, leave immediately.

    Nice design!!! Easy for navigation. But using dropped domain is not advisable. It will ruin your work.
