    Hey there indy nice site!

    Pros:
    - Pretty good template, could you a few more things to spice it up, but overall very nice.
    - Love the color scheme, really flows

    Cons:
    - Your Header is kind of boring, SPICE IT UP!
    - Change the color of you're google tower ads to green. Will blend in better.


    Overall I like it, looks pretty sweet!

    Advice: In the bottom middle part of the site you have nothing going on. I'd make a box for a high score table. And the other box I would make it a updates & News box with a feedburner/aweber opt-in list there.

    Good job!

    ::Edit::
    Change you're Copyright's from Yoursite.com to GameGump.com

    The layout and design is very user friendly, the color scheme and the ad placement
    is good. I think you should consider adding some text or a graphic in the header to
    fill that negative space. At the bottom of the site there is a bit of negative space
    as well you should put something there to occupy that space.

    overall, the site is good ... color scheme is brilliant. Why dont you put the site name infront of your logo? since this is da biggest flaw i see. and ads are looking very attractive by the way ;)

    Well usually am habitual of giving detailed reviews but am bit short in time and the site seems OK too .. you've done good work with it. Template seems nice however ....................


    1) Need to work on the Meta Tag , have to give something to the spiders and crawlers to get to your blog. you have 64 character limit use it wisely and to your most benefit.

    2) If I am not mistaking then your side is made in Joomla or Mambo well you can change the point size of the menu , with various colors going on it takes a bit of effort to read what is in the menu.

    3) Experiment with various modules and try to get some flashing or moviing stuff going on .. the website seem static ..... try to add in some slide shows of various games, top games etc.

    4) Add some reviews of the best games of all time in the content to fill the blank spot in the middle.

    5) Use adsense in the middle cause statistically that block gets most CTR.

    I guess I should wrap it up.....

    I hope you'll find this helpfull .....


    happy blogging :cool:

    1. I like BG color very much
    2. All the elements have been placed perfect
    3. Require some kind of portal look(such as most played games or most top viewed etc..)
    4. As you have written the no. only..but try use the image of the game which has been played most of the time.

    I have made some of the changes. I added more to the header and change the look of the top adsense ad. I put money in adwords account and got about 750 people and 1300 games played and not one click. boo
    anyway, let me know what you think of the changes. thanks.

    Nice changes, but it would be better if the text are a little larger by size, it's smaller than average eh? :D

    Extra: I did not notice the google ads until the last second before I was going to close the page.
