Hi guys

We have started a blog with wordpress Self hosted. It covers topics related to Automotive, Webmaster, Entertainment, Health, India, Life, Technology, Travel, world etc and is growing everyday with new quality posts.

I would appreciate people to give me feedback about this blog.

Let me know what you think of the layout.
Let me know what you think of the posts.
Let me know what is missing now / where we may be going wrong.

You can view my blog here.

I would greatly appreciate it if some members would review my blog and offer suggestions.

Thanks and have a great day!

Hemanth

I suggest that you have to categorized each of your articles, it is confusing at first your blog is for depression, then the other article is all about cars. If I am a visitor I will be very confused.

They layout is really nice, really smart looking. I like.

A few things I noticed that I'd get checked out.

You have a search box at the top-right, that's good. But, your search box has 'search' written in it for no reason. There's no need to write search in the box when there's a button that says search right next to it!
You have no about page! If I'm on a blog, I want to know about the blogger! That's you. Create a page with information about yourself and put it on the top next to Home and Sitemap. It helps your readers connect with you.
Expose your RSS feeds. RSS feeds allow people to subscribe to your site. You have one tiny little RSS feed button on the top-right of the 'Recent Articles'. Put links to the RSS feed in your sidebar and perhaps along the top where the Home and Sitemap links are. Try Feedburner for creating chicklets and buttons, as well as creating email updates.

Other than that, your blog is great. Keep up the good work.

Haha, I didn't even notice any RSS button, except in my browser bar (in FF3). As TooManyTriangle said, you need a bigger RSS button.

As for the first point: You could remove the search text, but it would be nice if it was written in a light gray color like this: "Search...". Adds something special to your layout.

Hi

Well, At times it is really confusing and there is no info about the blogger. What the blog is really about - cars, shows, development,.

Otherwise a lot of contents and the layout seems to be fine.

All the best
