Hi,

I created website that teaches users anything they need to know about Kodi,
The site is still new but I add new content regularly,
The site is based on WordPress but I changed the theme and the code of the site.

I will be happy to hear what do you think about the site.
Any feedback will help :slight_smile:

Here is the link: Kodi Beginner

  • Hello, the site is clear and accessible. But it seems to me that its design is a bit old.

    • Thanks, any specific points I should improve?
  • I like the clear, easy to read the information the site provides but I think it lacks a bit of identity. I would suggest creating a super simple logo and using a consistent color scheme throughout the site, something to fill the white space.

    • Thanks, I will work on improving the logo and the color scheme.
  • Anyone else?
  • Hello,

    I went to your site and would like to give you some feedback on design.

    I like that you used a sticky menu. Looks good.Makes it easy to get to nav bar.
    Your site is really clean, and uncluttered.
    Text is very readable and your right side post list looks great.

    I am not very fond of the cream header color though, just not my preference. Maybe make your header thinner, less height?
    The site is a bit "plain" and you might dress it up a bit, but again I was glad to see it very readable.

    But, much is perspective and personal opinions. I'm not a designer.
    You could use some online tools for accessibility, UI, page loading, etc... and get a better idea if it passes a lot of those tests.

  • Hello,
    I would like to share some discussion about your new WordPress website.

    Here are listed:
    1. You should focus on logo, professional and eye catchy.
    2. Try to set logo at left side and menu right side.
    3. Should keep the body section full wide, not boxed.
    4. Use some hover effect on articles.
    5. Fix white gap issues.
    6. Create a footer section of your site.

    Hope-fully your site will be better than now.

    Thank you.

    • Thanks, I made all of those points.
  • Hi Games,

    You should consider inspecting your graphics compared to your competitors. You should also check your website usability and accessibility which will improve customer experience. For artwork comparison you can depend on software like this. This will make your work much easier.

    Thanks

    • Thanks, I will check this.
  • Hi Games,

    I'm a big fan of Kodi, and I think that a website that offers useful guides on how to install add-ons is a viable niche.

    However, having said that I think you have made a mistake by using the classic blog format for your website. This type of content is not well suited to the contemporaneous blogging format. You would be better off using a well organized navigation menu structure of a traditional website, instead of the blog format.

    I suggest you create a static homepage with an index of your categories and posts so that people can instantly see what you have available and go directly to what they want instead of having to scroll through a chronological listing of posts. There is much room for improvement is this regard.

    About the style, I have no problem with the simple plain vanilla look, though you could probably emulate the typical look and style of a Kodi app, or at least use it for inspiration in your own unique styling choices to make it feel more closely associated with the Kodi app.

    HTH,

    Don Burk

    • Thanks for your feedback!

      You can see in the sidebar of the site the different categories of the site, also you can search for specific keyword in the search box, but I will work on organizing the tutorials so they will be easier to find.
  • Made many improvements to the site:
    • Created a new logo
    • Added a new button Start Learning Kodi
    • Improved the layout and colors of the site
    • Added new categories and tags
    • Added many new tutorials

    I hope it looks better now
  • Hello,
    Ok I would change a lot, first, get rid of affiliate banners, your banner should not be the star of the show , your website should be, change theme, add custom graphics, lead capture, custom logo, videos, color scheme, and much more, I know your still trying to learn design, so just saying.
    For affiliate marketing, use a product or a link, not a huge banner, that makes your site look tacky
    • [1] reply
    • Which affiliate banner are you referring to? I use Adsense.
  • Seriously i`m sorry but this site is not even started, it`s like a fee template without any custom work.
    So you need to really do something WOW
    A great logo and site identity
    Wider design
    More personalisation
    More more and more stuff
  • The site contains a lot of content about Kodi including more then 50 tutorials.
    The logo of the site was done by a professional designer.
    What do you mean by "More personalisation", can you please give specific examples?

  • Did you cheek the logo in my site?
    It was done by a professional designer.
  • It looks a bit old indeed. Other than that, elements are in a good place.

    • Thanks you, I keep improving the design of the site.
  • I'd have to agree. Looks a bit dated. But I think it's a brilliant niche and great idea for a site.

    • Thanks you

      In any case I will keep improving the look of the site.
  • I see it's working fine now and you are also getting visitors, btw, what are the methods of monetizing that sites? I assume that Adsense could get banned as Kodi is somehow illegal, I am also a Kodi fanatic and I use Kodi VPN to stream the site.
    • [1] reply
    • Kodi is totally legal, some of the add-ons may be illegal but that depends on the person who uses them.
  • More improvements:
    • Moved the search box to the header
    • Added email subscription to the site
    • Reached 100 tutorials milestone
  • Banned
