    Hi, I have a free classifieds site, a big improvement on most others I see.
    Check it out, test it, and please tell me if there's anything I need to change or improve upon. Thanks!

    The link is www.chiwidi.com

    The site idea is very praiseworthy. My comments are related only to the design issues. The text is not grouped therefore it is hard to read and understand what is your site is about. You should also fix the padding and alignment so the data is presented in the consistent way. Logo could be bigger and you could try to use Arial Black for it, it will make it looking more solid and complete.

    I know that might be too late for change, but for charitable classifieds, I would have been trying to register .org domain,

    well organized with a lot of content.....i'm not a fan of the images placed next to the main navigation links in the left hand menu and maybe make your header text all one color "chiwidi.com"

    Nice but the colors are sort of all over the map and don't really work well together. I would suggest picking a color palette first of coordinating colors and then work them into the different sections. Good Luck!

    looks very nice, but another color scheme wouldn't hurt :)
    i know it's important to show it's a trusted site, but it would look better to display
    the geotrust seal somewhere in the footer or in the side bar.

    I'm an amature webmaster, but it seems the framed pages limit your ability to capture visitors from the search engines. Besides ppc how do you get visitors? No being a smart ass, I'm looking for tips.

    The little icons on the left side category menu is a good idea. Text seems to be touching the border of that area - a bit of spacing there should do.
