    Hi Mike

    My first thought was 'it's an X-site Pro Site based on Affilo blueprint' but I can see the WordPress links at the bottom

    It looks like you have some good articles on the site, but for me it's just not that appealing aesthetically.

    Can you put more content into the homepage maybe some nice graphics and make it look a little less 'old'.

    Sorry to be brutal, but I wouldn't stay on too long irrespective of how good your articles are. It needs to welcome me and want me to stay, but right now it doesn't

    hope that helps some
    Cheers
    Steve

      Hi Steve, thanks for your comment. Do you think i should change my theme, to make it not look so old and more appealing aesthetically.

      Cheers Mike

    The site overall seems too spammy for the product, but the content is good.

    The site is also ugly, and navigation is annoying. You can't get to the home page easily, and the topics are a little too random.

    nice site but,
    I would delete the meta widget, improve and add more content to the index & footer, a moving header will also look good!

    The site looks bad (i am talking about graphic and navigation).
    I think it's very important to make changes in that area.

      Ugly isn't always a bad thing, I have created some of the most ugliest sites ever and have made more money with those sites than with any of the better looking ones.
      Trust me when I say content and traffic are more important than design.
      Focus on providing quality related content and driving traffic and once you start seeing success with that, you can then worry about design.

    I think u can adjust the navigation and font as a start, with current design i will only spent 5 sec before click out.

      I agree about not wanting the current design does not entice me to spend too much time on the site. I believe that you possibly could use a picture or two on the homepage and change the font and layout of the text to make it more user friendly.

      With a little searching there are even pictures you can get to use on your website for free, but just make sure they allow royalty free usage for commercial purposes.

      The links on the sidebar could also be more appealing. Looking at the site for the links appear random. Possibly categorizing them and labeling them as articles or reviews with a header in the sidebar would be helpful.

    The design is pretty basic and the website needs more graphics.

    By the way, you should protect the "Leave a reply" form with a captcha plugin, so that you won't get spammed.

    The site's appearance is not catchy and for a site appearance is the most important thing. Than comes content and other things.

    So, improve your website's DESIGN

    Hi it really needs to be brought up to date in terms of aesthetics.

    I would go with a premium dynamic theme so it works on all devices, and you know that the code is clean of any malware plus they look so much better and dont cost very much!

    I would also try a better way round than just giving a rating of a product and writing about it with an affiliate link, a interview with the product producer can take just 15 minutes and then adding your thoughts to that will work better.

    They are likely to promote the article too and also followers which will send traffic to your site, potentially sell other products on there and show much more authority.

    Add videos if you can get access to a demo copy of have the product producers go through it with you, these will get more engagement from visitors and also can be added to the likes of YouTube to generate traffic.

    A proper earnings disclaimer will also help convert better than the Note at the bottom of the screen.

    The final thing I would say is that you should have something in place to capture traffic so you can promote the affiliate programs, rather than just trying to sell straight from the site, this will save you time continuously having to try and get traffic as you will maximise the value of the traffic you get.

    First thing I would do is work on a better header... one that grabs people more. Maybe a bunch of before and after photos or something.

    I would try to add some pics. Site seems bland to me. Time to spice it up. Also, it has a 90's retro feel that is not helping you. Back then people were using dial up. It means that you see many small images or none. Also, people did not have a nav bar but used frames which at not pop now.

    Also, you can add video and flash animations to keep the viewers. Remember that you do not want them hitting the dreadful back arrow. Google looks at bounce rate to rank you.

    Not bad but still the external appearance is not so catchy

    I like it as well for the very reason everyone is complaining about it: your only downfall is graphics. Is that even really a downfall?

    You have great content, a great center point and it looks obvious. It doesn't take a thinker to know what you're selling.

    There is always room for improvement. Go ahead and run with what's been given, but otherwise, you're almost there.

    Great job.
