When you have a chance I would appreciate it if you would have a look at energybloggers.com and let me know what you think of the design and its performance.

Good or Bad opinions are appreciated.

Thank you in advance.

I like it, clean and simple. Hot topic for todays world. I wish I had a mini SUV that went 150 mpg.

Maybe just add a opening paragraph for what the site is about.

If you like my review feel free to add some rep points

This site seems very familiar...like I've seen it before. Oh well.

????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/web-design-reviews/486803-energybloggers-please-review.html

I have to tell you, I don't like the colors, and I don't like the layout. Sorry...but here's a few things you can do to improve the site:

1. Change the colors, of course. Play around with them.
2. Remove the Ratepoint member button from inbetween the left and right column. It makes no sense - you're reducing the size of your main content area with a button that is basically pointless. Why not put the button at the top of your right hand column?
3. If I'm not mistaken, Wordpress has its own search function. Why not use it? I find the "lijit" search a little intrusive and annoying.
4. You seem to have good content - but a bad design/layout won't allow you to promote it.

I've tried to be as honest as possible, and the site truly does need work in my eyes. Don't let this discourage you, though. The content seems great - do something with it!

Best Wishes,

Areas to improve
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=486803

Site navigation - site structure
Colour combination
Weblinks

The information on the About page on http://energybloggers.com/ should be on the first page, users should know immediately what the site is all about.

The colour combination is not working.
Colour stimulates users and affects the length of time they stay on the site.

Why are links at the top of the page. Why not have a weblink section?

The Navigation system needs reworking. Free Resources should be the first link.

Look how information and navigation is used on this site

You have a brilliant idea...the site will improve with suggested changes.
All the best with it.

Cheers
Corey
