something wrong with the colors, not sure what. i think it is because there is no lead color. thanks surf
I just don't know exactly what the site is about. I know it has something to do with tips ..You need let your visitors know up front, in only few seconds what your site is all about.. If not, most would leave. BTW, IMHO there's too many adsense on your front page. Yes, it's not against TOS, but some users will find it annoying
I think it has too many ads. I hope I am wrong, but I think 80% of the content consist of ads! Good luck with people clicking on it
markk, iskandar, connect: thank's for your feedback! I'll add tagline/heading/intro to explain what the site is about and reduce the amount of ads
From users point of view : too much ads From webmasters point of view : alot of people will click those ads , their nicely placed
As Clay15 said, soft on the eyes and nice and easy to read. I like, erm.. I can't even think what I would change. http://lostse.com/index.cgi?Terms=Tips
I like colors, an the "clean" style (good impressions considreing your topic), BUT you should add : - a baseline nex to your logo, to communicate what the site is about - add content on the home page to add the perceived value, and lower the visual impression of the ads. I don't think you have to remove some ads : add content and will be more balanced
What the posts above say plus - content vs adsense ratio is not good. Drop some adsense boxes or add more own content - put in a "random tip" box at the top of all pages - Explain what your site is about and what it wants to accomplish (other than adsense CTR) on the homepage. Even a "Hi - we are .... and we do .... please add your tips" will do and while browsing: the "hang your clothes in the bathroom when you take shower to get the wrinkles out" tip is great, thanks
The site is very easy on the eyes.. There just don't seem to be any theme base behind it.. I found it very dull.. Not much content.
kandeman, clay15, soapbath, Ethiccash, frankm, reciprocal_link: thanks for your input, guys! Following your advises: - I have taken out the top banner beside the logo and adlinks on the yellow bar - Changed the skyscraper to 120x240 ad unit Hopefully this makes it better advertisement-wise. However, the top area looks very empty now and I'm still thinking how to incorporate the heading/welcome message. So here's my todo list: - Change header to include heading and use the space more effectively - Add more content on the frontpage (thank's Ethiccash!). I'm still looking for a good 'popular post' plugin for WordPress Perhaps I can add more latest tips also so the ads won't take half of the content - See how I can incorporate random tips (thank's frankm!) soapbath: I didn't even submit to them Thank's for the link! Brighten up my day reciprocal_link: yeah, I'm still building the content. Hopefully I can add more usefull stuff soon
The layout and the colors are fine and there is noting wrong with the ads. But you may consider the old phrase content is king. So write a full 500 words article every week and you will make it big. Laszlo http://www.1printer-supply.com
