    Hi,
    I run a website www.arounddelhi.com for long but am new to blogging. Have created a new blog www.arounddelhi.blogspot.com on travel options in India. Please review and let me know how it is and how it can be improved. Also is one's own domain better than a one like I am using now.

    The content looks a bit disorganized on the page to make the blog look better
    you should get a professional template and a logo.

    Your content is wonderful, well written, very descriptive and the pictures really complement your posts. That said I would really suggest that you get a professional design, your post deserve it. Well done!

    Your blog has a great content. Just change its template design to make it look more appealing. You can also try to add some relevant images on your header.

    arounddelhi, your blog is nice but your articles seem to be very long( this is maybe due to the very narrow space associated for the articles in the template).

    One thing I noticed in your website arounddelhi.com that the "Search this Site" option is placed a little bit in an awkward position. I am saying this because normally you see the search option on the upper right or middle of the page but never on the left hand side of webpage.

    I get to know about Indian travels by reading through your blog. Very nice pictures have been chosen.
    I am more keen to visit the wildlife resorts.

    Well.. frankly speaking.. your blog isn't very attractive. The theme looks very simple with basic html. Try tro find out a better template. The content is good.

    Hi,
    Thanks for the input every body. Suppose I continue my blog with blogspot only, how can I add my own design for it. I am not a professional Web designer. Suggestions please.

    First of all it is not a blog .....
    Second put some better quality pictures the quality of images is making it bit unprofessional.
    Change the adsense background color to match the background of the sidebar.

    The content is perfect I agree. Now I know a lot more about India.
    But the colours are too bright for me and don't look like user-friendly.
    Good luck!

    Content wise its really good, but bro look and appearance matters a lot to your visitors and readers.
    I will advise to go for better blogger template and a nicely done logo.
