hi all, i hope this is the write section for this....
ive mentioned i have a gaming blog, on average it gets around 150 uniques a day, but hardly anyone has signed up.
i personally think its the site layout, but i could be wrong, as i said, ive only got 6 months experince so im in need of help.

thanks in advance

Hi! I like your blog as a whole, but I don't appreciate white background. It's not original but boring, I think. At your place I would use pale green, instead.

alexe, When clicking on your link to go to your site, I just got a blank page.

Tried it a few more times, still a blank page. Looked at the source code and there is nothing between the body tags.

Tried it a few more times, this time I got a WP unable to connect to database error screen.

Then I tried it one more time and got to your blog, but the page showed up with like the defualt WP blog, the one that says "hello world...".

So I am not sure what is going on, but maybe that could be part of the problem with not getting subscribers.

I think you didn't modified theme yet. If you wish to get a theme then find some gaming themes for wordpress. Currently the theme is default one and it not attractive. There are many magazine style wordpress themes that you can use for game/tech blog. Just tweak those magazine style themes and start blogging.
