What are your thoughts on my website? www.Date-Rater.com Submit Your Photo(s) & See Who Would Date YOU! I have been gaining about 7-10 new users each week for my website, so I believe people are beginning to see how unique this website is. I am just about ready to launch my MySpace Application and was wondering what your professional thoughts are. I am basically looking for opinions, suggestions, and other ideas on my website based on these variables.... 1.) General Use of Website 2.) Ad Placement (Google AdSense) 3.) Functionality 4.) Look of the Website itself... Please let me know what you guys think! Any feedback is welcome! Thanks in advance! ~Sean www.Date-Rater.com Submit Your Photo(s) & See Who Would Date YOU!
The theme, the content, the layout, and the ad placement is good but the color scheme... I think you should add a few more colors into the color scheme, I do not like to monochromatic look.
The site is too cluttered at the moment - it looks like an untidy bedroom. Everything is the same colour so is all blending in. Try making the two side bars a slightly different colour to the main content. Let the header be the header and move the shoutbox down the page. Move the current banner ad at the top to the right hand side of the logo, it'll help tidy everything up. Just by moving a couple bits around at the top, it already starts to help:
wow - thank you for being specific on ur thoughts (esp the diagram!) - - I will definatley consider your feedback....my only question is where you placed the AdSense - do you think it will decrease my CTR if the AdSense is moved to that certain spot on the header??..
For now, I wouldn't worry about your CTR anyway. You're a new site so the most important thing you need is members. Without the members, there'll be no one to click on the ads. You could get away with getting rid of 'Our Newest Member is.." and putting one of the smaller ads there, that should help.
