Website Review and Suggestions

EVERYONE IS OPEN TO LEAVE THEIR 2CENTS!!

I just started my video site using Greg-J from DP FlickScript about 3 days ago. Still in the process of development but would like to get some advice on what to do and how to get traffic to my site. I also made a thread in Members Only section.

I'm very excited because this is my first site and feel that it will do very well!

P.S. Still need to add more content

Thanks in advance guys!

A bit templatish but looks good as a start. Something i've already mentioned for another website review, yiu risk gettng your adsense account banned if you do not have a bar or border separating images from ads. You have a very nice ad integration

but as it stands is against the adsense TOS.

I do like the adsense placement a lot there.

Cool site!

You might want to go with a more fancy template but is good to start with.
Nothing works more than word of mouth promotion, so you must tell about this site to your relatives, friends, do some offline advertising. Don't ask people to "upload video's" in ads, instead promote some interesting video and invite people to see it. On the site mention, "Have something you want to share? upload the video!"

I'm not very experienced with PPC advertising, but I think you won't get many signups from PPC advertising for this site until you really throw some big money.
(May be someone in this niche will be able to comment on that...)
You can instead use the money to finance a contest like the most viewed video for a particular month wins some amount of money, or something else like Ipods etc.
So you will get new uploads, and people will tell their friends to see the video sending traffic to your site
Best of luck with the site!

I agree, nice design and creative ad placement (although it might violate their TOS). On the down side, why would someone use your site instead of Youtube, or the thousands of other copycat sites, you need something more to really bring in the big traffic.
