    Hello everybody,

    I'm currently redesigning and recoding some features on http://www.lolhome.com . It's a website about...well... funny pictures :)

    I would like to know what you think about the look of the website, navigation, SEO and what can I do to improve it.

    Any comments appreciated.

    Thanks.

    Watch for the hotlink :) God I love htaccess.
    Yep, the logo is kind of simple. Maybe I'll add something more shinny.
    Any more critics?

    the content boxes are over logo.
    Try to put logo higher.
    Nice design

    Move top members and picture comments to the left hand menu and keep your main content in the main view

    Nice website... nice design...

    Alongwith joke of the day..use a picture of the day..mail the pic and the joke to members daily... ask them to forward... run a affiliate for additional members... thru existing members..reward them with badges.. and ranks :)


    You can do a lot more with your logo... use the "O" in the lolhome to the max..make smily's etc...

    Use a rss feed for funny news :))

    Cheers.

    Thanks for the tips jack... here's a first thing I've introduced:
    [​IMG]
    When someone signs up after entering through this url, a few rating points are added to the referer :)
    Maybe I'll add more features for higher rated users. Any suggestions?

    Suggestion: Add a "link to this page" form area in the right under "Email to a friend" pre-filled with HTML to link to the specific page.

    Also a 468*60 adsense unit right above the pictures (under back, gallery, next) won't hurt.

    Nice design.

    Thank you all for the positive feedback.
    I'm glad to hear that. Here in Romania it is not quite that fast. Good thing it's hosted in the US. :)
    Also I'm working on implementing AJAX throughout the website. Just hoping to please the visitors completely :)

    >eXe
    I will add the "link to this page" code. It's a great idea.
    Don't you think that by adding another banner just above the picture it would seriously decrease any user-friendly navigation? I thought it was already cluttered with ads and it looked like a MFA site.

    Any more opinions? (critics highly appreciated :) )
