Appearance: 9/10 = 90%

Appearance of your website is fantastic. Right when I come to the site, it grabs my attention with the color scheme. It’s very eye appealing and I honestly love the look and feel. Something very small in detail is the top toolbar. I love how I hover over a link and the arrow with the blue lines come to that link. I really love that feeling.

Layout: 8/10 = 80%

The layout isn’t horrible, but in my opinion, isn’t the best out there. I personally, have never been a fan of the top section to preview posts. Why would you have that to preview posts where you can see them right on that same page? That just doesn’t make sense. That’s my biggest complaint about the layout. My next small complaint is your side bar widgets. It seems blah. You should put something there that people can see so it’s not ONLY blog posts. Other then that, I love it. It’s nice and simple and your posts pop out! I enjoy looking at it.

Activity: 6/10 = 60%

I have come to realize that your activity on your website isn’t entirely to great. You don’t seem to be updating as much as your use to. It seems as if there is a lot of day inbetween your posts. Try to work on posting more regualarly. It will help your view count increase.

Pros:

  • Appearance is very eye appealing
  • You produce great content for your age
  • A lot of work goes into creating a website. At your age, you’re doing a fabulous job
  • Cons:

  • Layout seems a bit boring in certain aspects
  • Activity is very low
  • Cory, you have created a great site for your age. You have great skills. Don’t let them go to waste, keep at it. Do your best with creating more content for your viewers.

    Appearance: 8/10 = 80%

    I’m liking the look and feel of the sites color, but it’s lacking some things. The design is pretty simple, which I really enjoy, but the color scheme seems a bit odd in my taste. The thing that stands out in which I’m not a huge fan of is the font color of the postings. It’s almost identical to the main background of the website. Everything else about the appearance I’m liking. Try making the posting font color a black or white. See what each of those looks like and see which one you can read better. People with eye issues might have a hard time reading the posts, and lets be honest, websites are about the content and nothing else.

    Layout: 7/10 = 70%

    This is the part of the site that I’m going to nail you on bud. The first thing that stands out is the header. I like how you have the catorgies and pages mixed in two different spots, but it’s hard to figure out which one is which. You have the “home” button mixed in with the posting catagories. That’s odd to me. Also, the pages don’t stand out enough. Will people know how to navigate your sites pages or only your catagories. Am I making sense? The next biggest complaint I have for your layout is your sidebar. Now, I notice you only have one sidebar which is completely fine, but it’s very unorganized. You have your stuff randomly spread out over the side bar. I believe that you want something that will catch the viewers eye in the side bar so they keep scrolling down to see more fun stuff. The fact that the first thing I see is donations is a turn off. It seems a bit gready in my opinion. Besides all this, I enjoy looking at the layout and it is pleasing to look at.

    This section is a huge win for you. Your activity is outstanding. It seems to me that you try to post on a pretty regular basis. It shows that you have dedication and enthusiasm. I like going to a web page knowing there will most likely be something new to read. I know with your website, I can expect something new within two days. I enjoy having that because it keeps me going back to your site wanting to read about something interesting. So huge kudos for your activity on your blog.

    Pros:

    • Your activity is a huge plus for me. I enjoy the constent updating and great content you provide.
    • Main theme of your site is simple and enjoyable.

    Cons:

    • Layout is a bit funky.
    • Color scheme makes it hard to read at times when your eyes wonder.
    • Navigation is a bit rough for a first time visitor.

    This is a great site for Technology enthusiasts looking to make their first technology website. You can look up to this guy as well as come to him with some tips/tricks. He’s a great guy and I love chatting with him.

    I love the theme of this personal blog site.  It’s very simple but still very appealing to the eye.  You get drawn into the main focus of the website which is the content this user writes about.  Overdoing the overall theme of a blog is a huge no no.  Anything that will draw your focus off the content of what the user writes is a huge mistake.  All that has to do with the theme of the site.  The over all look.

    The layout of your sites content is excellent.  It’s all very well placed in appropriate locations.  I really like the easy access to subscribe to your site via email on the right hand side of the site.  The way you have the bottom tool bar is excellent.  I love how you add your twitter and facebook pages right to that tool bar for easy access for your visitors.

    The activity of this users website isn’t perfect, but it isn’t poor either.  It’s in between.  Your site doesn’t get a ton of viewers, but it seems to me that you get enough visits a day to get by.  Getting more subscribers and more visits should be your goal for your website.

    Pros

    The design of the website is very simple and gets the job done.  Fits together very professionally.

    The tool bar located at the bottom of the bar shows that you have dedication to your work and want to supply the best for your visitors.

    Your content is excellent.  By reading your posts, I can easily tell you are into the technology field.  Work hard at it!

    Cons

    Need to update your content more often.  It’s to spread out between days.

    Too many posts viewable on home page.  No need to have more then 5 visible.

    Very great site Nick!
