Please Review My Review Site :)

    I have this review site on renting video games but want some advice on improving its conversion. PPC with google used to work well with it but I had to stop my campaign because I can't get the conversions back up to where they were early in the year. The only thing that's changed is the price per keyword on Adwords so I need to get my CTR for the offers on the page to go up and compensate.

    Any advice on improving the site would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks everyone!

    I like it! Overall, keep updating the content, maybe a video gaming rental blog to help with seo? even a forum that you keep posting to would be of interest - especially since it is getting tougher to rent games these days with BB closing all over the place..

    I like it, too, and completely agree with thisisadam - perhaps add a blog and a forum. Let your viewers add reviews of their experiences with the various dealers and also with games they liked/didn't like - and why.

    The only criticism (if you want to call it that) is that when I click on "full review" it opens a new window taking me to the .html page. However, if I click on the tab of that name, it opens in the same window. Since you have the tabs listed on every page, I wonder why you would have one open in a new window rather than the same page. It's just a consistency thing, I think.

    Some articles might also help.

    It's a good site.

    That's a good idea. I may try this out very soon. Thanks for the tip.

    That's true. I guess it does make the site a little sloppy. I'll update that. Thanks.

    I never thought of it as that bad but I guess a branded watermark could look a little better. Thanks for the constructive criticism.

    The template and layout looks professional and was impressed on first visit.But there is an issue with "full review" button and it opens a new window with html page.
