Hi everyone! Please give my SEO/webmaster blog some reviews. I'd like to know what you think about it (especially the posts). Thanks in advance!

Lovely, nothing to criticise there.
Maybe an explanation of the domain name??

Haha... sorry about the domain name. My friend suggested it. LOL

T - The
W3 - WWW
O - Observer

Hope it's clear now.

This site is, first of all, aesthetically pleasing. The blue swirls are a nice way to do something other than a solid blue, and the blue RSS icon is an awesome touch.

I like the fact that I can collapse the sections I do and don't want - customization rocks.

The calender's numbers should become underlined or go bold when there is an entry on that date. Otherwise the user has to mouse over each number to see which turns to a link when hovered over and which doesn't.

I would like to see the "Categories" move up the left navigation section and the poll moved farther down - I shouldn't have to scroll to get at the navigation.

A beautiful site overall with just a few re-arangement issues. I love it! Bookmarked!

I have one criticism. It may seem like a minor criticism, but it alone turned me off of the site.

The criticism is your site's skin. Not because it's an unattractive skin...it looks nice. But it's not your site's skin. It's someone else's. Yes, I know, blog templates are free, blah blah blah yadda yadda. But it does nothing to reflect who you are and what your site is about.

I turn away from sites that use templates for this specific reason...no originality. A templated site usually implies unoriginal content, and I have no interest in looking at unoriginal content.

Okay, thanks for that.

Though I have to disagree with what you said that a templated site doesn't have original content. All the stuff in my blog were written by me.

looks great good job

**taledate** · 08-19-2007, 07:09 PM

The site has good color and flow. First impression made me want to stay on the page and read. I like it!

**Jeoru** · 08-25-2007, 03:21 AM

taledate and cyberu, thanks for the comments.

**Danaldinho** · 08-25-2007, 11:15 AM

Looks good, but i think you could add a bit more stuff on that main page, because it looks a bit plain too me, but its not that bad

**kalew** · 08-25-2007, 05:32 PM

I like it...but I'm not too crazy about blue. It's everywhere. That said, I do like the variations of blue.

I like how your posts are smack-dab in the center of the screen - where my eyes automatically land.

Good job.

**vangogh** · 08-25-2007, 06:37 PM

Seems like a decent blog. I'm not really crazy about the design, but it's not bad. I agree with Adam about creating a unique design instead of using a template. They get old after awhile.

The writing seems pretty good. I disagree with some of your points here and there, but that's only natural. There's always room for improvement, but your writing is better than a lot I've seen.

**Chromatic** · 08-26-2007, 04:13 AM

Very clean design. I love the customization. I love the OSX type interface.

It's not really unique since all I have to do is look at my desktop on my Macs to see the same layout, but it is a cool idea.

Very easy to read. Nice RSS icon. Good work.

**Jeoru** · 09-03-2007, 09:24 AM

Okay, thanks for the comments people.

**freelancevote** · 09-03-2007, 10:43 AM

Your website looks PERFECT! I like the translation plugin you added to your site. Where did you get it?

**WebcyteDesign** · 09-03-2007, 09:59 PM

Found a glitch, I'm using IE 6 and when I click on the green button to make that section disapear and then click it to make it re-apear I lose the background, border for that area. Just thought I'd let you know.

**GREENMACHINE** · 09-04-2007, 02:07 AM

Hey There
Well I have to say i really like the simple layout and the colours. Great work! A rating out of 10 would have to be a 8/10!

Great work keep it up.

WebcyteDesign, I'll try to contact the designer of the theme to fix the glitch. Thanks for letting me know.

Thanks for the comment GREENMACHINE.

Excellent site.Good background combination of white & sky blue colour used which makes the contents clear.Headlines are bold which makes easy to understand.
