Feedback for my site please

Hi Andrew,

You need to improve your homepage in terms of graphics. The header is nice but I've noticed that there are a lot of "unused" spaces in your site that makes your site look empty. Like for example, the right column does't have anything in it. Also, you have a large space below, including the footer section.

If you do not have anything to add to these spaces, might as well switch to 2-column layout, just what Cecille suggested. :)

Also, try to have a sign-up form below your content. It is good to always make your sign-up form visible by laying them out to accessible places (at the side and at the bottom part of your site).

Your content looked "tiring" and "boring" (no offense meant). You may want to change the text perhaps or try to incorporate pictures (2-3 photos will do).

It's nice that you have all links laid out in your homepage content but I suggest that you have your content here short but valuable like instead of enumerating all pages in your site, you can instead provide readers benefits and advantages you can offer them. Sharing your experience (or someone else's) is also a good idea OR you can also provide feedback/testimonials on your homepage.

I hope that helps!

Mary

@cecille.l I appreciate your honest feedback. On my home page (which I call the landing page) I made the switch to a 2 column layout and I can really see the difference. I will also add more images and try to make my site more "colorful".

@marytordecilla I appreciate your constructive criticism as well. I am not at all offended by your comments. In fact, if you feel my content looks "tiring and boring", then there are probably plenty of other visitors that feel the same. You're actually helping me become a better affiliate marketer with your brutally honest feedback.

@jcdean I have done my keyword research and market analysis, and there are plenty of guys looking for info on how to text a girl. In your defense, there's about two times more people searching for info on how to get a girl's number than how to text a girl. However, as I mentioned in a press release I submitted online, not only do I focus on how to win the texting game but all other aspects of the dating game. In other words, when a guy comes to visit my site, aside from getting him to sign up for my email course I make sure to provide content to helps guys in all stages (overcoming shyness, building self confidence, making that approach, talking to her, getting her number, when to call/text, making that first date, keeping a great thing going, etc.).

Thank you again everyone for your feedback. I will keep the forum posted on my success!

Concerning the bounce rate: ask yourself how valueable your traffic is and where visitors came from.

About the website: I would avoid white space above 'the fold'. Besides that, I think the website looks good.
