    Hello, I feel bad asking for reviews and not giving any, and I'm sure everyone here hates giving reviews for nothing all the time, so if you review my site, post a link and I will review yours :)

    http://www.high-tech-watches.com

    Looking for reviews on design, appeal, adsense/chitika placement. Thanks all!

    Pros:
    The design is nice and clean. It's definately a focused niche.
    Cons:
    Don't center justify your text.
    You don't appear to be offering anything of value, its just a blurb about the watch and an advertisement.

    Overall: Consider offering more valuable content. Organize your information better, give a description, a review, and finally some specs. Waterproof, weight, etc...

    Good luck.

    Thank you, I will redo the content this weekend, and add more. Is there a site of yours you would like me to review?

    My site isn't really in a place to be critiqued yet. ;)
    I'll let you know when it gets there.

    Cheers!

    From a webmasters point of view, it does look a lot like you're focusing more on ad revenue than offering content. If I was an everyday consumer, I might look for more info on a product before deciding to buy from you.


    Other than that, the site looks good!

    If you like, you can check out my site, the blog in my sig.

    Thanks!

    The first thing I noticed was that the watch in your header doesnt really look "hi-tech"

    Maybe find a couple of astronaut watches?!

    Thanks for your opinion :)

    Your Blog:

    I love the design and colors. Just a few bugs and things I notices. First you have 1 too many footer links, they are overflowing. Also, I would think you don't get a lot of clicks on the large header adblock, I would suggest removing it and integrating them into the sidebar or into another post :)

    I think you need to work with the space around your template, maybe that's just me though as I like to try to fill up the white empty background within a site. Even with background color it would make a bit of a difference. The content on the front page need a bit of work, perhaps a short review of selected watched, just to fill up the front page and let the viewers have a taste of what to expect from your site. One thing for sure is that you need more products than your current inventory, good luck!

    Thanks Smurfy.

    I added a 'Featured Watch' to the homepage, I think it looks much better, thanks for the idea smurfy.

    Also, I changed the watch details a little on the idividual pages. More product soon :)
