    Ok let us have it :)

    We would just like your opinion on our first website and blog please. Link below.

    It is about 3 years old and is just starting to take off sales wise.

    The main focus is zippo lighters and collections and has what we think is a nice little collectors map.

    At first it was going no where then we discovered SEO and we think we have done a fairly ok job on this, being on the first few pages for our main keywords on google.com.au.

    Adsense is going no where but then we found this site and WOW all we can say is thanks. You can read our praise to DP here
    and our 2008 goals.

    Thanks for your time.
    Steve & Liz

    nice site man.

    from an aesthetics point of view;
    your site is based around the 3 columns so i think that the header should be placed in the middle at the top.

    With the adsense, it is so tucked away that i'm not suprised no-one is clicking, perhaps center the header and place a horizontal banner beneath that to make it more obvious; don't make it tooo intrusive though.

    Hope this helps
    Steven.

    thanks for your honest opinion

    have added adsense link text to top of page
    is that what you sorta meant. doesnt look to similar and go against adsense TOS

    with adsense we didnt want to over crowd it with ads so customers think the site is spammy looking. We still make the most $ from sales, we are just starting to really get into the adsense thing now.

    We are also trying Auction ads which are on some of the other pages and will be placed between each blog on our blog pages.

    Have just signed up with kontera waiting on reply.

    if this is the wrong way please all comments will be taken on board
