A review of my freesite would be awesome.

I've just made my first freesite. Could y'all give me advice on how to improve? Thanks.

Hi Greg

Before I go any further, let me start out by saying this may seem a bit critical...but if you want to get listed...critical is necessary. No offense is intended

Okay, first off...your site looks off in Firefox. As a reviewer, I only look at sites in Firefox. Just checked and it does look okay in IE...at least the first page does. In FF, it's left aligned and your tables are tweaked.

Also, you'll need to open up your whois information. Link sites want to know who they're linking to these days...using your hosts whois info won't fly.

Personally, I wouldn't link your exit to that site...it's just asking for trouble.

From a sales perspective, you've got no ads on your entry page...you can have up to 3 outbound links...I suggest you use em to make money.

Okay, on to your main page...

Ah...ok, I see now...you're promoting Josh Tucker. Having your site name and sponsor name that close will probably give you problems with getting listed.

Your main page is errr...different. Not sure why you have pics on your main page...it's not needed and you could be using that space for promo materials. The goal here is to sell...not give away porn.

The More of Josh Tucker link at the bottom of the main page is a blind link. Here's a great thread on blind links;

http://www.greenguysboard.com/board/...ht=blind+links

On to your galleries...

9 pics on a gallery won't pass muster with most reviewers...minimum is 10. That same blind link on the bottom of gallery one. Again, you can have 3 outbound links...I suggest you use them to make sales.

Okay, looks like the galleries are consistent...so same comments as above on gallery two and three.

I'd fix the whois...pull those pics off the main page...bump the galleries up to 10 pics each. Clean up the blind links and add some promo to all pages. Fix the site so it looks right in Firefox...and SUBMIT away!

Sorry for the long critique...but it's necessary if you want to get listed

Please don't apologize. This is great! Thanks, these are exactly the kind of suggestions I need. I'm working on fixing up the site now.
