SiteNewspaper.com - Internet newspaper about the Internet

[fuser00]

Hi, im fuser and less than a week ago i started a new site

Name: SiteNewspaper.com
Url: www.sitenewspaper.com

The idea is simple, its an internet newspaper about internet. This newspaper (using wordpress) has news related with internet or where internet plays a roll. News are written by me so the content is 100% original. As you may see, the text is short and to the point. This is because i read several blogs and sometimes i dont have time to read them all so i wanted to keep the text simple. There are different categories for easy browsing.

So, i need suggestion, critics or ideas... what would you change/modify to improve it?

Thanks, fuser

It's very appealing, well laid out and looks like a fun site.

What can I say "I've bookmarked it"

It's very clean and simple - how i like sites to be. Maybe you could make it so that some stories attract more attention than others. Perhaps having a top headline with large image then smaller stories from each topic placed in different areas, like down the sides or something. I suppose in essence what i'm trying to say is maybe try laying it out sort of like a newspaper.

Also maybe you could add something interactive such as a poll or something. Just a few ideas but i really like the way the design looks so far.

Cool design that's a bit too much "blog style" still. However, the headed would be interesting to see in "Old English", replicate some of the newspapers. Best reference would be to browse through some of the papers that have strong online presence. Wallstreet Journal, USA Today, etc. Many of the papers are using CMS to publish their stories online. Although most of the CMS that they're using are custom apps, they still give you a hint of consistency throughout the field. You're right there with many of them.
Overall, your design looks clean and informative, even the FavIcon is well chosen. Great Job that doesn't need any real modifications, just a few touches here and there.

I really like the site and I think it is very clean looking which I think is one of the most important things in web design. Also, I am a big fan of calm colors and you did a job well done

It is a bit hard sometimes to find relevant news but our readers can be 100% sure that all of our news are interesting.

Thanks everybody for the suggestions, really good ideas too

[fuser00]

Its simple... PM me your site url and details

currently, im not charging anything for that (although a link back is fine too)... your site has to be interesting or unique

Thanks, fuser

Fuser, I take it you are the admin at the "report-etc.info" site? Or if not, there is duplicate content on that site. Just curious as you noted, the "News are written by me so the content is 100% original." I do like the wordpress skin, nice design. Did you customize it?

 

[fuser00]

Hi, i can access report-etc.info .. is the url correct? Seems that the site is not online right now. I dont own report-etc but it happened to me with another blog that copied my content. Yes, i said, everything is written by me so if theres a site copying my material, thanks for letting me know!

I will try to log in again later but right now the site is offline

Thanks, fuser

A little tip for improving your onsite seo. Make your <title></title> more descriptive and make sure that it changes dynamically from page to page. Default wordpress does this with the following code in your header.php

	<title>
		<?php wp_title(''); ?><?php if ( !( is_404() ) && ( is_single() ) or ( is_page() ) or ( is_archive() ) ) { ?><?php _e(' « '); ?><?php } ?><?php bloginfo('name'); ?>
	</title>
