    Hi
    I just started 2 websites 3 weeks ago, and my current earnings are only 7 cents. I would like a review on one of my websites for now, www.thegorezone.com (for horror fans), I have adsense, and other affiliate links, but still no earnings. I have submitted the sites to search engines and some directories and I don't have much backlinks but I am working on it. I would really appreciate a revision on this site. I have already had 1 persons opinion on my website which Im taking into consideration, any one elses opinions, I highly appreciate!

    thanks

    I like consistent navigation and no self-referencing links.

    I see that when you're on the home page there is no home button and that takes care of not having a self-referencing link.

    But when I'm on other pages - Articles, for example, if I click on the Articles button the page reloads. That's no good for lots of reasons.

    okay, so you think I should do the same as I did for the home page, just remove the title and link to whatever page its on, for example (articles page- take away the article link/title and then do it for each of the rest of them).

    what about earnings? if there was traffic coming in, do you think I would get earnings from adsense and from the other affiliate programs?

    thanks for your opinion!

    P.S I did notice that some links are slow to load at the top, such as articles and reviews, which I will try and get them to load faster. (I dont use html coding, I use a software thats easy, drag and drop, so I have to still figure the links loading quicker then others and fix those)

    >>Take away the link but maybe change the image to something like a greyed out one. Something that shows the visitor that he is on that page. Then maybe do the same thing for the home page.

    what about earnings? if there was traffic coming in, do you think I would get earnings from adsense and from the other affiliate programs?

    >>Not having self-referencing links will not impact on anything - other than to improve user experience. (And if you are using page metrics you will get an more accurate reading).

    >>Well, if you want to really learn how to make pages - pages that will work and are easy to edit the learn some coding. It isn't rocket science and it is what I teach at my online web design training service, joyofcode.com.
