I'm seeing a site that needs a lot of work...

**Strategy334** · 11-23-2010, 10:57 AM

thats why im asking for advice? I can use any help I can get

The name of the site is kinda hard to read in the header there, I would consider making it larger, perhaps bringing the character spacing down a little.

It's pretty simple, but nice and easy to use, easy to understand what it's about.

That green space where the ads go is absolutely ARGH! MY EYES! If you know what I mean?

I'm not sure what you meant by "I know I need the header categories centered but I haven't been able to find the code in the css to do that yet" because to me they're all left-aligned, which I think is better than having them centred. I think you should right-align the Home and Contact links though, just to add contrast.

Your posts are centred (is this what you meant before?) which doesn't look right. I'd also suggest increasing the font size and maybe using a different font-face. Although, it doesn't seem like you're done with the typogaphy in general so just be aware of it.

Make sure you make each post obviously different from the rest, at the moment they're all bunched up together and it makes for difficult reading.

The sidebar headers need looking at but that's related to typography so I'm sure you have that covered.

The search bar needs styling.

Hope that helps some

Nice site, love the graphics, but the Youtube videos one after the other might increase page load time for many

I'm gonna suppose you want to attract traffic from search engines also with this site.

Writing meta keywords like this won't help:

<meta name="keywords" content="nicki minaj,pink friday,young money,birdman,cash money,la,lil wayne,eminem,romans revenge,swizz beatz,1440,diamond lynk,down south hits,downsouthhits.com,dsh djs,the takeover,zo da dose,drake,alabama,fire,jp,like the stars,majesty,nevasoba music group,purebread productions,king of da bama,major glow ent,young obama,rick ross" />

Not that people will ever look in the code like some of us here, but even the search engines will get a headache when they see that

The site is a bit cool tho. All respect

The combination of green and black doesn't work.

**ssalinks** · 11-28-2010, 09:26 AM

Takes very long time to load and home page is very lengthy

**Amaderworld** · 11-28-2010, 04:33 PM

I view your site its really nice and you make a good job by add social network twitter and facebook you can make more colourful for more attractive users yes green black is not so good you can try other colour

**Digmen1** · 11-30-2010, 08:53 PM

Yes I find the name of the site "Down town Hits" very hard to read in the graphic.

I also don't like the bright green

Even though my surname is green LOL.

Otherwise it looks good to me.

**charlestaylor98** · 12-01-2010, 03:58 AM

pink,green and black, the ratio of the color seems not to match well, so it looks like that is very uncomfortable.
i advice you should reduce green and balck.

**radiojunkee.com** · 12-01-2010, 04:34 PM

I love the content that you provide on the website. I would try changing the color scheme up a bit because it looks like an early 2000 web 1.0 website.

The tags on the left are very helpful.

Overall great job!

**achugg** · 12-01-2010, 05:42 PM

nice site! i would suggest fixing your top header and banner so Down South Hits is like a logo, right now its just streched.

**missedcrush** · 12-04-2010, 06:35 PM

The green needs to go it stands out to much, Other then nice work.
