    Looks neat, but what is the difference between your site and the 100's if not 1000's of other similar websites?

    Since the name of the site is: MySitesDown it may be a good idea to implement a box like the ones shown in the footer with the text: ''My Sites'' and the box should be configurable by users, users should be able to add their sites to the box and when they go to your website they immediately see if their sites are down or not so that they don't have to type in their websites every time they go to the website.

    Thanks for your reply Hama, I am trying to make the website unique in it's kind and I like the idea you came up with.

    I have a few things on my list I have to work on first but I am sure I will add this as extra feature.

    You are welcome. Having a funny and/or easy to remember logo wouldn't hurt either haha.

    I am someone who enjoys doing some coding in combination with SEO. You won't find a lot of people who can design as bad as me :). But I might start a contest on DP to get one.

    It looks good! Everything is clean, well-organized, and the design doesn't look too busy. My only criticism would be what Hama said: What makes this website unique? Why would I come to your site rather than one of the many others out there? You need a selling point; you need something unique. You need some kind of personality for your site that makes it really stand out. Maybe you could try adding other features... put a box on the sidebar and link that to "whois.mysitesdown.com," for example. An IP Geo-Location script would be cool, too! Think outside the box and I'm sure you'll come up with something.

    If you have any time, I would appreciate a review of my blog:

    Also thank you for your reply PhiladelphialM. I know there are already a lot of websites like this (in this niche) so I will start working on some unique ideas that I haven't seen on any other related website yet.

    In the current state, I agreed but I am working on new features that will make this website different from all the others there are currently in this niche.
