    Hi ps2home:

    The web site looks good to me.
    Question, what are you selling to us?

    Most sites of this type do reviews.
    They focus on one area.

      Thanks. We'll, right now I'm not selling any products. I guess I could write some eBooks for various categories? Currently AdSense is the main monetization.

    sincerely, I don't like the header, too empty, too much white.
    Also, the banners from top of the website are looking bad. Looks very "Come on please click on commercials"

      Hey PS2,

      I really like your site. Nice design. Great idea. I checked out the Max Mag theme and I can see well what you are doing.

      It will take time but it may develop into a well searched for answers site. And it can grow quite big. Thanks for sharing.

      You could categorize the posts into different sections and subsections and then link them to your tabs.

      You could think of the tab sections as minisites or niches and develop them as you would each niche site. Make sure to link all the posts within each "niche" to each other so to create continuity in that section.

      Really, a great idea and a great site.

      Please keep us posted. I would love to see how you develop it further.

      Best of luck,

      Dita

    Honestly? It looks awful... I don't mean to be harsh or anything but thats my opinion, let me break it down for you why I think that.

    1) Your ads at the top of the page, you have two ads there, each different sizes and completely unrelated. I wouldn't even put an ad there my self but thats just me. Test and see what happens.

    2) The logo looks cheap, I really recommend you go to somewhere like fiverr and invest 5 bucks for a good looking logo.

    3) More ads... You got 4 sets of ads before I even get to anything relevant.

    4) Spacing from the top half to the bottom half, the bottom half bit of the site is about 150 pixels smaller then the top half, make it match.

    5) To many colours... You got red in buttons, green for lining, blue for links, black for text, white for button text, it's just a mish mash of colour. I'd google something like web 2.0 colour pallets and look at them.

    6) Just delete your search site bit, you can't even see it. (The one under your rotating feature posts)

    7) I don't like your category page, you have 3 columns there, the featured picture, posts and side bar. The middle column looks really crammed and un readable. You should place them posts below the featured.

    These my initial thoughts, I haven't gone through it properly, hope it helps you in some way.

      Yes I am going to change the logo. I just put it up while I make the site. Thanks for comments though, they will come in useful whilst im continue to develop the site.

    It appears obvious the site was put up with one purpose in mind, and that's to get people to click the ads. Honestly, when I come across sites like this I just hit the back button immediately. Get some content visible. I don't build sites just for ad clicks, but IMO you're likely to get more ad clicks if you aren't so "in your face" with the ads. That doesn't mean you have to hide them, but seriously, there's nothing but ads above the fold.

    Once I got past the junk to the actual content, it looks pretty decent and might be interesting and useful. Trouble is, I wouldn't have gone that far if I stumbled across the site while surfing.

    Just when you think you've got it all figured out, someone changes the rules.

    The site looks like it's very little but ads. Had to scroll down to find some content. Don't care for the logo/header at all, but the ads are overwhelming.
