    Personally I think the design is outdated....Web 1.0-ish...

    Hi ,

    Best of luck with your blog..

    one word of advice.. For better SEO , make sure your permalinks in WP are something like :

    www.domain.com/category/this-is-the-url.html

    And also installed plug in for Google sitemaps :)

    Then you're away !

    Good Luck!

    that is a nice blog, but then perhaps a 1000pixcel would be nice! why don't you try a fluid template, the 800px is kind of small!

    but then i like the search, looks cool on the header!:)

    Hi, Maneel, here comes my review of your blog;)

    Though it really looks a bit Web 1.0-ish, that's not so bad - don't forget you can change your blog's design any time. What does matter is your content and the SERPs of your blog, so take into consideration just what sparksflying suggested - formatting your articles in this manner:www.domain.com/category/this-is-the-url.html.
    This method of your web pages naming will help you blog be found much easier when search with some of the keywords included in the web pages names is performed.
    What else you can work your blog - you can add some welcoming note to make a better presentation of what your project is all about. This is strictly optional but usually works very well.

    Good luck with your blog, Maneel
    and all the best from my side,

    Nathan

    Yikes, exactly what I was thinking.


    For your blog I would monetize it... add in adsense. Then write an article about FF, then place the affiliates button there to earn more revenue.

    Revenue is the last thing on my mind now. I just want some traffic. What do you people think about the content ?

    Well, your blog seems interesting. However, I would like to suggest by saying that you may add a background color to your page. Presently the background kept by you is white. Also you need to work with the font structure. This is just a suggestion from my side. But its all up to you to think about it.

    I thank all of you for your suggestions, based on which, I've switched to a Web 2.0 theme.

    Let me know what you think about the theme as well as the content & if you think that this blog can be a success.

    Have a nice day :)))

    i think you dont have focus on your content. try to focus on one or few keywords and write more articles about it. this way will get more target visitor come to your group and easier for you to do advertising.
