    Look & feel of your site is simple but professional. Navigation is also user friendly. Please write proper Meta Title Tag & Meta description Tag with your keywords.

    First impression is the last impression my friend. The website you created is lacking too much whether it's the design part or the content part. I guess I have already reviewed one of your websites this before. The home page is quite simple. You have just got wrong sections arranged. Online users count, advertisement come after the sitemap. Even the same thing goes for contact us. The home page must be appealing about the softwares. It should make visitors to keep their attention on it. The about us section is concerned with the title for just 2-3 lines. You talk more about discount and offer. Add something about the software developer team, about the website, how you got this wonderful idea. Try a new theme for the design, because people love what they see. Something that the audience loves. Get a proper logo and favicon. The concept is pretty good. Just need to work on some part. Keep up the good work. :)

    First thought: where's the shareware?

    The days of having a bit text intro on your landing page are gone, gone, gone. If your site's about shareware, visitors want to land on a page with shareware on it.

    Basically, your page design is about 15 years out of date. You have your "people on site", your hit counters and everything else that says "Look at my first blog, isn't it pretty?" but you don't have anything that considers what your visitors want. At least it doesn't play music.

    Modern website design is about the visitor, not about you. We don't care about your traffic. We don't care how many people are on site. We don't care about your intro (that goes in "About"). We care about the why we clicked a link to your site - in your case, to get/find/read about shareware.

    The site looks very bare, though that may be by choice (especially if you're going for the retro look). The shareware images should be above the fold (people like pictures) instead of at the end of a pile of text.

    Final thought: all this stuff is available from the vendors or via places like Tucows and Download.com - why would people come to you? What makes you special? Why would I choose you instead of them? This is the important question to ask yourself if the site is more than just a pet project.
