Review TipsTree.com

    www.tipstree.com is a new website where people can read and submit tips on just about any topic. Because the site is fairly new there isn't a tremendous amount of tips on the site so if you'd like to submit a tip you can get up to three links back to your site. Leave a link in your name (I do follow), a link in the top commentators widget and you can get on the front page if it's a good tip. Every Tuesday and Friday I choose a topic to highlight on the front page and this week it's StumbleUpon.

    Let me know what you think about the site, the design and the content etc.

    Thanks :)

    nice !

    but i have an idea for your logo ! design a logo which contains a tree having some "!" signs instead of leaf . it will be cool !

    Thanks athar. Hopefully the site will be getting a proper logo and header soon, I don't know how "!" ties in with tipstree though?

    Cool, cheers Zerosleep!

    The site needs users to submit their own tips so I'm trying to get the site out there and get a small community going. Anyone else want to chime in with their views? :)

    Looks nice, but change the page title to TipsTree | -> Keywords Go Here <- or something along those lines.

    I thought <keywords>|TipsTree is better SEO?

    Right now the top headline "TipsTree dot com" is overlapping the "tips, tips, glorious tips!" below it.

    Good looking site but a bit too much information/links on the right side for my taste, makes it hard to focus on the actual content.

    I liked it. The header way very big, and I wondered if you could have put in something from What is this? there, or make it smaller. It's a great idea. Good luck.

    Thanks everyone. I've reduced the header like Peter suggested, not sure if I prefer it like this or the previous one.

    Also thinking about juggling the items around in the sidebar.
