The key to web design (and heaven knows my coders and I struggle in this area) is to use rhetoric..
i.e. If you visited your own site, would you stay for more than 1 trillisecond?? My guess is no you wouldnt and nor would I... Hope you take it as positive crticism..
And (excuse the sorry excuse for a reason to self publicise) but if youre gonna spend all that time in development and return whats, at best, a mediocre design, you may as well use 1plus.net and achieve the same result...
What is the theme of your site? I can't tell from looking on the domain name or title. You think anyone would stay there trying to figure out what this site is about?
When I visit a site and all I see is a bunch of ads - sorry but I am gone forever!
Other thing - I am still trying to figure out "Related industry news"... What industry those news related to?

Reasonable point I guess.. But I wasnt showing you the index page, more the page you would see (for no effort) if you used 1plus instead of developing yourself.. Maybe I shouldnt have..
I guess for the 1plus home page, im hoping that the branding and market saturation that the site already has sees it through. Also, because most people that end up at the home page know exactly what they need when they get there, it needs little introduction..
With regard the main crux of the site - and that is the auto generation of news pages/blogs and mini sites - if you dont think these pages tell the visitor exactly what the site is all about, id be extremely surprised.
All the best regardless, its great to develop yourself and it makes no odds how long you have been doing it, there is always someone more knowledgeable.
