TemplateZine - Please review this Magazine Blog

[AbsoluteKC]

Hi,

I have just launched a magazine blog with several web template reviewers helping me to review web templates and at the same time, providing useful information on Joomla and WordPress templates in terms of add-ons and / or customization.

I am looking forward to your comments on my site in terms of usability, navigation or even some monetization ideas.

The blog is TemplateZine - Template Reviews

Thanks in advance!

I like the template you have to ... review templates. :hehe:

As a matter of fact, you have everything that I'd expect to see from a decent site. Logo, favicon, content, animation, images - in short - great job!

How's traffic and revenue shaping up?

Thanks Mike!

I have some traffic coming in from one of my popular CSS Templates site but I am looking for more regular readers and attract them to come back often.

The current revenue model is adsense but I will need to get volume in traffic in order to see results.

Do you have any ideas on monetizing this blog? I have some plans to sell templates in future..

I have already reviewed your website at other forums and as I stated before website had no professionally designed logo! Also it is necessary to design a good header and place Google Ads block into another place at a website!

You should really put up a better logo. I think you are trying to do much in the front page. I suggest you keep the front page as a template showcase and put up the links to the tutorials in the 2nd column.

Perhaps, Community reviewing would work much better here.

this is an intresting design, Its missing something however it is very nice.

Good
-I love the scrolling "news" type block on the right side, it works well with the colours around it.
-If you scroll below the "Feed Box" the rest of the page is spot on.

Bad
-Logo, it just isen't big enough.
