My first freesite!

Sloerie · 2004-06-18, 09:12 PM

After my first postings i kept quiet for a while, and have done some work in the background...

Finally, its time to ask a first lookover from the experts here on the board on my first attempt on a simple design freesite.

I am planning on building and posting sites like these with different layouts on a daily basis in the near future, so i need a good conceptual grasp on what is needed to get listed, as well as what i could do to improve the (up until now non existant) sales on my freesite imperium...

The url: http://www.pornpicsmachine.com/free/...ore%20Teenies/ (example with recips)
http://www.pornpicsmachine.com/free/...ore%20Teenies/ no recips

To get some targeted feedback i have the following questions

1 would you list it? why not?
2 Is the balance ok between content and banners/ads?
3 what would need improvement from a commercial point of view?
4 Any rules i might break with how this freesite is setup?

and of course, could i post sites like these at your link list with a good chance of getting listed? (this is a request to spam me with your link lists!)

OK, I'll bite my nails for a while and wait for your answers!

Keep up the good work!

Sloerie,

You will have to let those LL owners answer your questions, but I was just wondering why you did not center the text on your title line "Softcore Teenies" and you Enter Here Line? IMO it would improve on the look of that page.

I agree with Chop - not having those 2 text areas centered throws off the whole page.

Also...

It's not a good idea to have spaces on a URL, so you might want to change "Softcore Teenies" to "SoftcoreTeenies"

The MegaPornLinks recip is a really bad color - you can barely see it on the page.

Ad text like "Hot young teens" is gonna get you deleted all over the place - ask yourself this question: "How old is a young teen?"

Using horizontal pics with vertical pics will often get you odd looking pages like that 1st gallery (my rule of thumb is to use all the same size pics for a gallery)

Lemme add a few cpmments on

Good site, but I got a few improvement ideas that will help make the site more readable and more likely to get decent listings. The site tittle might upset a few reviewers, the word 'teenies' is getting more difficult to use and rightfully so (just my opinion). As Chop mentioned above, why not center the text? Also, on the main page, the link paragraph is very hard to read against your background color. The text size is too small to even read that's attached to the top of each preview thumb on that page as well. Some link lists dont like seeing paragraph text links. Might wanna break it up a bit.

The link list owner of Mega Porn Links might not like his link color either on the warning page. Can't even see it.

Your main and gallery pages would benefit from having the site title left on them. Try to keep background colors neutral as possible and use the same background throuout the entire site.

On the first gallery I would attach "Get more hot teens pictures and movies now!" to the lower banner and move teh banner where teh trext is now.

I would also add "Hot teen girl shows her firm body!
Wanna see more of this hot chick?" above the banner.

greenguy beat me to the thing about the spaces in the url.

Same principle for the second gallery.

Good job otherwise, you should see how bad my first one was... i'm shocked it made any sales. file://localhost/d:/web/back-off-bitch.net/gal/girlfuckguy/carandysob/index.htm

Good luck and keep it up. You are on the right track

Everybody thank you very much for the answers!
Sorry i did not respond earlier;Its a rough week, two of my main hosting companies have serious troubles, and that absorbed my time.
But offcourse i have read the answers, thank you very much!
I am rebuilding and refining the site(s) and i will post newly designed freesites here as soon as they are up to my own critic.

The design part of these sites is not my first concern, as i will redesign every new freesite that will eventually be posted at the LL's, but i want to definitely make sure i don't break any rules by the way i create them, like to much outgoing links, wrong url's etc etc..

So your answers have been most usefull to me in getting an idea on how to create future freesites.

So i will
-not use the word young again (unless it would be a young granny lol)
-i will lose the spaces in the url's
-get the freesite title on all the pages and gal's

from the design side i will
-take care of getting samesized pics in the gal's
-definitely take care of the readability of text and links (just overlooked that one as i was eager to get some comments)
-on centering text i have to say that i somewhat disagree, creating somewhat odd designs in between more normal designs is what i am actually after. The idea is to have a somewhat "homebrew" idea, and also to put people off their right foot once in a while... Let me know if you strongly disagree!

I am not posting at the LL's untill i get a green light from you guys, so i will soon post some new freesites here to get a review, and then maybe get rolling...

Again thanks for the comments, very appreciated!
