    Hey everyone, just wanted to show off my new blog design:p

    the link is in my signature. InternetBusinessDaily.net

    I'm going to focus more on my trials in affiliate marketing from now on, so I figured I would post to this section.

    Let me know what you think! (suggestions apprecaited)

    The design is nice. The only thing that I don't like is the search area. I don't like the "search button". Maybe it's just me but "search"? Searching your site, internet, etc.. ?

    Might just be me.

    I like it, it's not too busy and annoying, it looks professional.

    I say good job.

    Blog is a type of websites or better said a cms script. Type of blogs that you most often see are free hosted blogs like blogger.com, thumblogger.com,... Don't worry, we were all newbies at some point.
