    I have a fairly new site Credit InfoBooth
    http://www.creditinfobooth.com

    let me know what you think of the look. it is made using drupal 5.2 which was very pleasant to work with. The only thing I do not like the way the forums work, but since i still have no members, and no one uses them, i might try to integrate phpbb into this site.

    anyways, please let me know what you think

    thanks

    Looks pretty good overall, but the header could be spaced out. The logo, navigation, and image are all jumbled together on the left, and then there's just a random blank area on the right.

    Hi Luthan,

    Your site is nicely done up. However, what is the objective of your site? I can see you are trying to monetize it with some affiliate products and also with google adsense. If that is the case, I suggest you try to build up more credibility in your site to give confidence to visitors so that they can gather enough trust to click on your ads or to become your leads for your affiliate products. Why sort of things can build confidence in your site? I suggest to give it a bold and attractive header, add in some testimonials or articles that talk about some credit repair or anti identity theft or related articles.

    Hope this helps.

    Nice site .. could I ask a few questions

    Could you make "Improve Your Credit - Get Out Of Debt - Stay Informed" a little more punchy and hard hitting?

    The links below "Personal Finance News" are they meant to take you to site market watch.

    If yes ... good because I instantly left you site. If no ... ooops sorry but you have made the exit door to easy to find.

    Nice clean design. I would create a "Home" button in your nav. The link was too small, it should be a button. You got a long way to go in terms of content. Need more stuff to offer value to visitors and earn a bookmark from them.

    Good overall design. I would not include a forum until the site has significant about of users (100+) else it looks like a dead. I would invest in shaping up your logo to give a more professional look. Your landing page try to offer too much detail on Credit card fraud. I would try to list the area covered on the website without going into detail. Good luck!

    I am thinking of completely redoing the site, tweak the template so it stands out more. the more i look at the site the more it gets boring to the eye.

    maybe its just me though.

    A nice simple layout! The one suggestion I would have is to add some links at the bottom of the page.

    A big improvement would be apply more of a larger fade on that piggy bank image on the top header.. It ends abruptly out of no where on both the left and right sides. You could also take those 3 standard links beneath the logo, and make them a part of the same navigation beneath it. Simply style the links differently by not making them bold.
