Review my site - make $5-10

    One of my clients asked me to get some quality reviews from the forum. If you give me a valuable idea on how to improve the site, I'll happily send $5-10 to your PayPal account. I am interested to hear thoughts on how to get more pages indexed, get more traffic, improve user's experience or/and the site in general.
    The site is lake locate dot com
    Thanks!

    Just some quick remarks:

    - Not enough keywords in the meta tag
    - Login button not properly outlined
    - Links in the navigation bar are a bit small, and don't start with a capital (Nor really necessary to start with a capital, but looks better imo)
    - Search not properly lined-out
    - Text is small, which make it difficult to read for elderly and other people with not the full vision.
    - The lay-out for the texts, and especially the links could be better

    Thank you, ssmm987! I forgot to mention that the home page is not the most visited page. Most of the times people entry the site thru one of the 70K lake pages. It's been a real challenge to optimize those pages.
    Can you please PM me a screen shot of what you see as well as your Paypal ID? If you can elaborate a little more on the last one, I would appreciate it! Thanks again!

    Hi,

    Personally the website looks very nice and professional.
    Now for my 2 cents:
    - Text too small
    - Logo, is good but I think it could be better
    - Everything looks to boxy, have you tested with round edges etc?

    Thanks for your comments. I am not a big fan of round corners. I used to have a text resizing script, but it adds to the loading time, so I removed it...
