    i like it! the design is clean,loads fast,the logo is great,i just dont like the orange google ad, i think that you should change the ad color to an lighter color,maybe white,to blend with the color of your site

    wow its Really a nice site - I have downloaded Digg buttons in different colors - will use it in my Blog !
    just looking for the RSS buttons LoL --

    My Reviews

    Opening fine in Internet Explorer & FireFox.

    Ads Placement is fine - though you should give preference to adsense over widgetbucks (just my suggestion)

    Color scheme of Ad unit in your side bar don't match with your sidebar color - Make your ads background color same as that of your sidebar

    overall you got a nice site & infact nice products - I liked it very much - Keep it updating, i added your site to my bookmarks!

    Regards,
    MicroBrain.

    I like the overall look, but I think it's a little crowded. Also I don't really like the gray border, may be remove it?

    Hello KingNomar.

    I had a chance to look at your website today.

    My Thoughts

    Logo & Header
    I like what you have done to your logo & header. Very easy to know what your website is about at first glance.

    Categories
    Not to keen on the category titles. They don't seem to match your template properly.

    [​IMG]

    Google Ads
    Could the width of the ads be adjusted? It seems that some of the space it uses is not needed.

    [​IMG]

    Navigation
    Overall the navigation links worked fine. The only thing I had trouble with is not having the basic navigation buttons: 'home' 'about' and 'contact'

    Leave Comment Form
    I would suggest captcha for the 'Leave a Comment' form.

    Content
    I loved the content. Very insightful material.

    Conclusion
    Overall... it is a very excellent website with a few items to touch up.

    This review was done using 3 browsers (FireFox 2.0.0.9, Internet Explorer 6.02 & Opera 9.24) on Windows XP SP2.

    I do hope this is helpful.
    Respectfully,
    Lhlalyam

    Thanks for this very detailed review of my website ! It is a good idea to add captcha to comments, I agree! have to find a plugin for that!

    I will redesign the titles.. they need work I agree !

    About the google ads.. not sure if I will keep them up.. its not really bringing in money.. about $ 3 monthly .. What should I replace them for?

    Hmmm... I think that it would be a good opportunity to sell a small ad spot... or text links...

    Have a look at the following locations on DP:

    PPC Advertising
    Link Sales

    Maybe some others may have better suggestions.
    Hope that helps.
