    Hi nks,

    Great site :)

    I reckon you could do with a better background/template though!

    Got it! I'll work on the background template... hearing this, yes, it certainly can be improved with a proper background.

    Hmm... a little cluttered? Can you please help to define, what is being cluttered here. Any way to improve?

    I feel that the adverts on the right are too large and take up too much of the screen. It would be enough to make me want to visit somewhere else instead. Good content though, good luck with it

    Hi WriteYourContent,

    Thank you for your invaluable critics. Just a question, what ad size would you suggest (in place of the ads on the right side)? I appreciate your honesty :)

    Your didn't choose the best WP templates -- this one looks rather plain. Beauty/cosmetic sites should have a look that appeals to women.

    I agree, in fact I am looking into re-designing the background with enhanced colouring.

    I know this looks plain - it is meant to be this way; simple look. Too complicated look may deter readers. However, you did bring up a pretty strong point. I should design it towards something that appeals to women. I'm looking into it. Thanks!

    A very minimalist design and everything suits the mood of "Beauty". I like it very much. Do keep up with your updates.

    By cluttered, too much on the page close together, not enough white spaces, to naturally lead a person to a particular section.

    Hi SimonV, I'm not sure if I understood you completely. Do you have a reference site where it is considered less cluttered on the page? I appreciated :)
